The Unimaginable-Murs/BALLOONS

[00:10.02]What if I could ice down all of my tears [00:13.85]Would my face be covered in diamonds from ear to ear? [00:17.61]Would real ****** respect me then? [00:20.11]Will some of these white girls wanna be more than my friend? [00:23.52]If I could take all of my tears and cry them into a chain [00:26.39]I wonder how many million more followers I'd gain [00:29.53]I bet my socials would be super lit [00:31.68]It wouldn't even matter what type of vocals that I have to spit [00:35.37]I could turn all this salty water [00:37.31]That fell from my eyes into some diamond karats [00:40.66]Then when I cry in public [00:42.92]I could finally do so without having someone tell me [00:45.50]I should feel embarrassed [00:47.07]'Cause I'm not and I cried a whole lot [00:50.58]When I filed a divorce and when the homie got shot [00:53.56]And not one time did I laugh at Tyrese's tears [00:55.90]'Cause when I was separated from my son [00:57.66]I cried every day for almost a year [00:59.28]And at near the end of that year span I was filled with joy [01:02.42]'Cause my new fiance and I were expecting a baby boy [01:05.66]But after 40 weeks he was born without a heartbeat [01:08.62]Still we chose to march forward instead of retreat [01:11.81]I put one foot in front of the next [01:13.88]Even when it seemed impossible to take the next step [01:17.80]I put one foot in front of the next [01:19.84]Even when it felt like God had his foot on my chest [01:23.44]I put one foot in front of the next [01:25.83]Even when it felt like I couldn't take another breath [01:29.57]I put one foot in front of the next [01:31.82]'Cause life is just a battle in the shadow of death [01:35.52]We bury Pooh in the very same day [01:38.65]They called us said they wanna take my baby away [01:41.39]I beat the case but I didn't beat the odds [01:44.86]I got so many questions when I finally meet God [01:47.63]"Like why you make it so hard? Why you even let me try? [01:50.57]Why my marriage couldn't work? Why you let my baby die?" [01:53.57]I apologize for not, you about to hear alot [01:56.57]This is not really music, it's me dealing with my thoughts [01:59.67]It was breathe trauma (huh), breathe trauma (huh), [02:01.79]Breathe trauma (huh), breathe [02:02.94]It's hard to kill the drama when the trauma won't leave [02:05.50]So if karma does exist I find it hard to believe [02:08.39]'Cause if you reap what you sow, I didn't sow these seeds [02:11.54]I need a Grammy for the damage, platinum plaque as a bandage [02:14.75]A couple healthy kids before I start to understand it [02:17.56]But because the fans demand it and the label said I should [02:20.52]I put it all into these songs and the hopes its understood [02:23.63]I put one foot in front of the next [02:25.77]Even when it seemed impossible to take the next step [02:29.74]I put one foot in front of the next [02:31.85]Even when it felt like God had his foot on my chest [02:35.49]I put one foot in front of the next [02:38.05]Even when it felt like I couldn't take another breath [02:41.71]I put one foot in front of the next [02:43.97]'Cause life is just a battle in the shadow of death [02:52.07]I've been crawling up the side of a mountain [02:58.48]Problems, they got me falling back down [03:04.47]Know this, all the flames I'll put em down [03:11.33]And know I'ma climb out [03:17.10]I've been crawling up the side of a mountain [03:23.08]Problems, they got me falling back down [03:29.11]Know this, all the flames I'll put em down [03:35.83]And know I'ma climb out
