What I Love, Will Kill Me Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, (coughs) Yeah, I remember.. I remember when I.. (clears throat) Yeah..

[Verse 1]
I remember when I flipped open my t-mail
Doing designs for beats over e-mail
Sound clicking, them dudes is down with it
I wanted to crown with it
Used to envision me hitting retail

I'm going for blood right now I don't eat kale
Knew what happened when we buzz
Shout outs to (?)
Heard the shit you dropping, mm
It's kinda weak, frail
I don't feel nothing bitch
I don't even speak brail

They want me to stay quiet
Tired I don't apply it
Motherfucker I'm wired
I'm finna start a riot
This my middle finger to the world
You could tour the globe and sing to all those little girls

But I'm trying to change the way we think
Naw I ain't lying
But I wouldn't be mad if I saw my momma rocking me
Why you mad at Kendrick?
Shit, I'm glad he said it
You out here to kill everyone else
So why do you see me?
I only write a sentence if I'm in it

You ain't study this game, you have poor attendance
I got shit on my mind, I think it's time to vent it
You must be dumb deaf or blind
Cause all your shit's horrendous
Used to get it popping over (?)
Geting rhymes up when dial up was my only option
When It was my only outlet
Proverbial Mountain, I found it
Climbed to the top then I shout this

"This my world, yes this my world
You can suck my dick til' it makes you hurl"
Didn't come this far to fall
Used to study, but this shit's like bar for bar
In ten minutes smoked a bowl with him, inhaled that tar
As a kid, shit got hard
I was mad at god
But I can't hate that man he was doing his job
Now I'm only this strong cause of the shit that I saw

Uh, now they say I ain't repping
But wait, here's the real question
Am I supposed to rep a place that never gave a fuck about me?
Did them little rappers see him even want to talk about me?
Let's be honest, really only like two of us popping
One of them is slept on with all the shit that he's dropping
And he, backed by a legend, isn't that enough?

Please, sleep on your answer
This might take a second, yeah
Huh, and if you feel me you feel me
And if you feel a certain way chances are you guilty
If I broke your heart
Be my guest, go and bill me
I play that part
Knowing that what I love will eventually kill me

[Outro]
If it hasn't already..

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
