Soul Cry lyrics
by RJ Payne
[Intro]
Yeah, thank y'all for tunin' into Triple 7
DJ Doo Wop, we did a hell of a job, homeboy
PA Dre, we got another one
Y'all could've been anywhere in the world
But you choose to be here with me, I appreciate that sh*t
Let's do it like this
[Verse]
Geah, I went to chase my dream, had to stop sleepin'
Finally made it, and my main n*gga stop speakin'
It's like they only happy when I'm not eatin'
The only love you when you dead and you stop breathin'
But f*ck that, a n*gga need more
I'm talkin' first class flights, n*gga, G4
5-star suites, 33 floors
Bare footed on the beach by the seashore
I'm after big money, f*ck the smaller issues
I'm too blessed to be standin' on the corner with you
I'm tryin' to buy the Wraith, you just bought a pistol
You don't hear the game I'm droppin' when I'm talkin' with you
Certain sh*t is out of my comprehension
Instead of build, n*ggas feel like you competition
I show 'em love through the hate, that's the contradiction
Get rich, dream big, that's my proposition
A n*gga merchandisin', even sellin' clothes
They can say I sold out, I'll never sell my soul
Self taught, self made, that's a fella's goal
I'm a king, and my crown wrapped in yellow gold
I'm a legend in this sh*t
I'm givin' charity, my presence is a gift
I lost friends for nothin' when we never should've split
They prayin' without me that I would never make it rich
They wrong, it look like I'm right
This is more than a song, take a look at my life
Take a look at the frauds take a look at my wife
What they broke is a bond, had to cut 'em for life
Tryin' to keep my composure is the approach
It's sad, n*ggas was closer when we was broke
When I got the exposure, n*ggas was ghost
I'm sayin', look at the poetry that I spoke
A n*gga closer to success
Too bad it brought me closer to depressed
I pray and stand strong as I'm hopin' for the best
This for me, I no longer will be devoted to the rest
PAYNE!!!
[Outro]
(My n*gga, talk to 'em right now)
It's for me (yes sir), here on out (rep)
I did this sh*t for everybody else for too many years (yep)
I'ma do this to make this n*gga happy
I'ma do this to make the hood proud (yeah)
That's a wrap (that's a wrap, n*gga)
It's me and my team, EIMG sh*t (yes sir)
How he say it in that movie, momma I made it
I ain't make a million yet
But goddamn, I damn near got a million fans (haha, facts)
Triple 7 (yes sir), Doo Wop what up
Hey Dre, what you about this sh*t right here
(Bring it home, n*gga, bring it home)
Check it, I can't see 'em comin' down my eyes
So I had to make y'all cry
I said, I can't see 'em comin' down my eyes
So I'd rather make y'all cry, it's PAYNE!!!
(I'm honored to be apart this sh*t right here, n*gga
Facts, RJ Payne, this somethin' the game is
Starvin' for right now
Shout to EIMG, the movement
PA Dre, and everybody f*ckin' with us)
