Boogie - Make Me Over lyrics
rate meFt. D'anna Stewart
(Verse: Boogie)
We still hangin' from the tree, I guess we better leaves
They still gon' Marshawn Lynch me if I neva speak
I see hawks that can’t see they own thoughts
Because they eyes was on women that can’t mind they own business
Sittin' in my church, lookin' at my pastor
Say he tryna find a witness, I’m like, 'Nah, I ain’t snitching' whoa
What if niggas looked at prison like a prism?
While we squaring up wit othas, always thinkin' that we different
Guess we, guess we in it, let it out ur system
‘Cause the system been assistin' on ur downfall, ah
See, I got lost in the truth, as I lie here just look at what I found, y'all
Lord, Lord, won’t u wrap ur arms 'round my body?
Put me in the sky, won’t u let me know ya got me?
And even if ya drop me, I don’t really see it wrong, why?
Cuz ya been holdin' me so long
Whoa
(Hook)
Ya say I’ve been so strange lately
Ya can see how I done changed, baby
Lately I’ve been goin' thru' sum' things
Oh
(Interlude)
My dear God, I ask ya to bless my dad, my mom, my
My cousins, my cousin Jewana, Joshua, Tiana, Ronnie and Gregory
And bless my mommy, my daddy
(Verse 2: Boogie)
Whoa, uh, uh
That’s my 5-year-old kid, he’s still got crayons in his cupboard
Now how I’m posed to tell 'im I got shot ova a color?
That don’t make sense, and sense ain’t too common, is it?
They try to blame them, they ain’t really the problem, is it?
Y'all got it twisted, and it’s fuckin' all my nerves up
Nigga, fuck ur turn up
How I’m 'posed to benefit? How that shit concern us?
Word up, that nigga killed Tiana, now her family up in hell
He the one that’s 'posed to burn up
Guess it ain’t my, I guess it ain’t my place
How I’m fightin' fo' this race who ain’t got faith up in they face
I can see it, I’ve been searching fo' myself, and I can’t even find a reason
I got shot up in my foot, I’m neva gon’ be defeated
I promise, whoa
(Bridge)
Okay let’s clap fo' them niggas
Who turn they back on us niggas
Cos' they was clappin' at niggas
To get it crackin' fo' niggas who really hate 'em
They hangin' from the cliff, let me see if ya gon save em
Man, I bet not
(Hook)
(Outro)
Dear God, I ask ya to keep my family strong
And keep my daddy out of trouble
Amen
