The Essence

I used to love you like the last slice
Would dream about us together cuffed In a past life
Wasn't my time...but I'd be lyin if I act like
I wasn't mad that
That these niggas ain't treat yo ass right
On God...
So much time together
The Q train after school
Poppin shit with my friends
Or just me and you playin cool
I mean your essence was a blessin
Shit I needed that...
No disrespect I'm just reflectin
And u need it back
Its clear you lost it
Couple bodies that's piling up in your closet
you regret that you crossed with
I think it's time that we getchu clean
u poppin xans percs, couple mollys
N prolly sippin lean
this era different
It's hard for me to respect your name
everytime we link up
I hardly know wutchu ****in saying
So for the record imma put this shit on record that
Im here to help u get yo shit together
Bring that essence back!
Ahhhh
What’s the matter with you
Why you change you tune
You got me running out
Ahhhh
What’s the matter with you
You gotta change your tune
And let me run it out
Im disappointed in your status how
U go from being the baddest
To just the saddest style
biggest shit in yo balance now
Opened up my heart for ya
Even dubbed a couple others from the start for ya
Broke em all apart for ya
Tellin my moms that we gon be together made her mad
We started to argue till she seen I'm tryna feed the fam
But part of the problem is she seen the way you treat a man
Start em, chart em, depart em, then retreat w. a ****in bag
I'm lookin for long term, not a phase on love, like I'm big worm, smokey let the cig burn
Remember those feelings that you gave me
Nights I was lost but you came along and saved me
Times I was scared but help me face my fears bravely
Gave me the blue print...not gon lie that shit crazy
That's a fact
So for the record imma put this shit on record that
Im here to help u get yo shit together
Bring that essence back!
Ahhhh
What’s the matter with you
Why you change you tune
You got me running out
Ahhhh
What’s the matter with you
Why you gotta change your tune
You got me running out
