Space Cry

⸻

All of my women been independent,

Ain’t worried ‘bout another niccas mentions.

They don’t care about your interest —

When you see her, she don’t even see you,

Get your paper, boo — do you.

Who could be mad at what you do?

Been workin’ way before you finished school —

Ooh, so sexy, yet so cool.

That’s just the way I like it… oooh.

⸻

Independent, and she thoughtful too —

Give her a ring, yeah, she deserve that too.

My name 2, but I’m always first, baby.

Know your girl, and know her worth lately.

I been wildin’ lately,

I been blessed since birth — since a baby.

But I still feel cursed…

Last few years been the worst.

So I vow to break that family curse.

Yeah, I talk a lot — but it’s worth the words.

If you love your woman, better listen to her.

Don’t make a mistake you can’t fix or reverse.

⸻

All I do is work — tryna prove my worth.

Tryna show you that I know your worth.

Tryna ease the stress, relieve the hurt…

But how can I prove it

If you won’t give me a chance first?

You said, “I don’t know who you was.”

But I know who I am — and I know what I love.

⸻

Tryna be a better man,

Better father to my lil’ kids — never go back to the can again

Tryna reach the sky like Jordan — ‘cause I know I can.

No Jumpman — I don’t jump for nothin’.

And I ain’t runnin’ — I stand on somethin’.

If it’s my love, then I’m fighting for it.

No cappin’ — I don’t lie, I’m honest.

They try to take my freedom,

But I ain’t lettin’ them take nothin’ from me — I’m dreamin’.

⸻

Yeah, I’m money-minded.

In my pockets? Colored money with white faces — yeah, they timeless.

Benji, Franklin, Jackson, Grant —

Pay ya dues, I earned that.

Love your woman, she deserve that.

Hold on to your family…

‘Cause you might not get ‘em back.
