You lift me up to shoot me down
It looks painful for you to smile
I feel a space between your hug
I hate the way you show me love
You ain't the same as when you came
We'll probably never be the same
Leave it to you, I get the blame
I guess that I'm the one that changed, quite strange
If I ain't there to have your back I'm either dead or I'm sick
When you're fucked up, behavior turns irr?gular quick
Sometimes the pr?ssure overwhelms when you're the head of the clique
But don't get ahead of yourself, I ain't benefit shit
Nobody sees your vision until you're successful
To become a success will validate that you are special
There ain't a pain reliever strong enough, life is stressful
Learn to put your faith in God, that's who gon' protect you
Don't ever bite the hand that feeds you, that's disrespectful
But if what's in the hand deceives you, now you're regretful
I brought integrity though every area the jet flew
It's like I see a stranger, nothing like when I met you
At this point I don't care to keep a friend again
When you get on to checking in that ain't genuine
Changed my whole perception now that I'm rememberin'
Got a big safe of favors that I'll never lend
Nothing's forever
You lift me up to shoot me down
It looks painful for you to smile
I feel a space between your hug
I hate the way you show me love
You ain't the same as when you came
We'll probably never be the same
Leave it to you, I get the blame
I guess that I'm the one that changed, quite strange
Your favorite's nowhere near me when I'm dedicated
Always humble, usually disciplined and never hated
Call me quiet, call me lazy, talent never faded
It's frustrating when your grindin' ain't appreciated
Should have been dead in my 20's, shit at least I made it
Guess I gotta prove myself again, increase your payment
Get shits together then the devil comes to rearrange it
The lord blessed me with a shorty I could leave my name with
Fuck all the complainin' 'cause I'ma see the top again
Sunshine or rain, don't matter when you 'bout to win
Question how I'm livin', lucky you get oxygen
Play around the clib, AK will chop you in
Hoping for good, can't help but notice the stranger things
Fuck looking for love, what about the pain it brings?
Claiming you're a angel, they gon' have to take your wings
But where you wind up, while I accept the climb up and everything it brings
You lift me up to shoot me down
It looks painful for you to smile
I feel a space between your hug
I hate the way you show me love
You ain't the same as when you came
We'll probably never be the same
Leave it to you, I get the blame
I guess that I'm the one that changed, quite strange
