Self Love - E.Scott

Just because I (love you), yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, (Just because I love you), yeah Peel in my second whip Stealing, putting second hand kills in my residence Healed all my brethren with a seal, we can't let you in Medicine I put the effort in to still burn at effigy Odorous, I'm sober, just as lil as they letting me Mama, wipe your tears, I'm fighting titans, can't invite you here Poetic license veering from the mic, my chest too tight to steer Chess lessons, bloodletting, flood when the night is clear I ain't give a fuck 'til my lungs had to fight for air Glaring, staring numb, therapist had a life to spare Snatched me by the eye said I'ma fight whether I like or not And she told me reasons why, but that's the private part Burnt the midnight lighter Killed the drive in me to tie the knot My game slop but if I name-dropped you, you still got my heart Driving off Squeezing off the E-brake these days I can't talk to god just for my knees sake Long conversations to be had Wrong places wrong times and Strong patience I must add Soul weighted don't mistake expatiations for some sadness A strong face, a long race I'm unafraid to come in last Quarter tank and ounce of gas and I'm driving And it's just because I (love you) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Look, I'm back at it glad bags and flat backs a pack rat A crass habit crash flashing scratch that im past rapping I'ma show off In a scar competition Flaunting close calls when you cook you can't regress back to the store bought I hope you keepin' me in mind I hope you shakin' I hope you still analyzin' hard as I made you As hard as I make it love that I'm armed with broad and it's brazen Arguing with mom cause I'm always gone when i stay here She said it's just because I love you That I see you out here poisoning yourself and want it for you And I love you better than i love myself my fruit is spoiled And it's not a game I put it in your name I kinda told you And I nodded and I took it to the bank and I deposit And I dropped it and I looked into the mirror said "oh Mavi" You coarser and you closer the rhythm that's inside And I warped you in the interest of design It's just because i love you Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye Clasp the windows to my soul Smoke thicken grab my mental by the throat Mind sifting tides shift it's still cement around my toes Saran wrap around my pack i can't trust get hand to hand served w a hand behind my back They prayed for us, ain't heard the answer but my glance is in the stash It's growing handsome by the stack i self aggrandized in the past but now the sun talking Not sure of where i'm going but i'm blunt walking In life or in this hood so keep a look for 911 callers I fund loss 'cause i'm from loss You gut me then it's no love lost You spun me into crumbles fingers numbing from the bloodloss I've endured The moral of my story is I'm impure The horror in my story is I've been through it and i still do it And my pencil is in earnest the difference tween u hearing the new records from my service The medicine I'm burning turned my breath into a furnace Whole face hot Shoulders hold weight till i break pace and can't stop So baby i could change your life, if you let me Tryna eat ain't really crave a bite since gained insight from desi So i stay inside away from light Hoping that your prayers reach Loathing that i can't breathe Croaking when i can't speak Was open with my grandscheme You was either with me or in my way plow through standees We sprouting now we plant seeds You plant love love will grow You plant fear fear a grow If you planted me then me would grow But i was branded negro I got slanted before relegated to preshow I started with wine then to the clear then to the nino Then to everclear and never steering without prerolls And I just had the presets to preceptor me bro I bleed presence And preach lessons All for free too And I offer free smoke to any nigga behind a #MeToo 'Cause tell my niggas: we ain't free until she free too Tell my niggas: we ain't free until she free too Tell my niggas: we ain't free until she free too And tell my sisters: we ain't free until they free too Tell my niggas: we ain't free until she free too Today free too, to... we... too
