Z U M A - TESTIMONY

See I've been going through some thangs
So I only feel it's right
To jot down these emotions I've been facing every night
Like why we have to argue why we fuss and why we fight
Like why we separated when we used to be so tight
Like is it God's plan
Man I doubt that shit is true
Cause look at all the pain and all the struggles we've been through
Like you ain't change on me and I ain't never changed on you
So tell me what's the reason for the things we going through
Yeah they screaming free ZUMA cause they wanna see me down
Nahh I ain't even from here but they know I run the town
They don't understand my lango and they hate it cause I'm brown
And that shows they weak minded and they never been around
Pop him with that big fye bet he won't make a sound
Got these golds up in my mouth so they I'm from outta town
Where the sun don't shine
it's just rainy days and clouds
And it's a whole lotta youngins who wanna make they momma proud
I'm coming from the slums
That's why I want your loyalty and you can keep the love
Cause love is an addiction everybody giving up
Just to turn out heartbroken got you feeling outta luck
Just to turn out so hurt got you feeling like a duck
And you feel the pain they gave you is permanent and it's stuck
And that pain turn into anger now you never give a fuck
And you feel like that's the only way that you keep it a buck
But you know that's false
You know inside your heart that ain't really who are
You can't do them like they do you cause you gotta play your part
and stay true to yourself cause you gotta make your mark
And I ain't talking bout a bruise
I'm talking bout your heart
You wishing bad on no one cause you've been inside the dark
You've been in situations where you've had to play your part
And you faced the consequences cause you wasn't moving smart
And now you thinking bout the old days
While these people wanna see you back into your old ways
Finally found the shine while they stuck inside the cold days
You found a new path but for now you looking both ways
I don't believe in matching energy
Just because you miserable won't let you have my company
Lord knows why I'm feeling like I need recovery
It's because I really feel these people had enough of me
Now I can finally be at ease
Gotta cut you off if you interfere with my peace
So much pain inside my heart think it's time to release
And imma make these people feel me ever time a youngin speak
And imma always speak the truth I ain't gonna tell no lie
Cause I'm speaking for my people this my ghetto alibi
Momma said you speaking to them better look them in the eye
Cause you're gonna see the truth way before they even reply
For every tear momma shedded
Represents a time I was acting hardheaded
Things I said and I've done momma know I regret it
And it's all out of anger and no nun of it I meant it
I can never let you close to me
Now we finally winning and we happy how it's post to be
All the negativity won't let it get a hold of me
They say ZUMA caught a body I say allegedly supposedly
I just feel like going ghost
Because these people saying dat they love me when they don't
People be asleep so I gotta get em woke
And they steady laughing at me when lil ZUMA ain't no joke
Why do people wanna take my heart just to break it
Happening so much I swear to God I cannot take it
People tell me ZUMA boy just fake it till you make it
But one thing my momma told me baby boy you better not fake it
Always keep it real
Always keep it solid
Don't you lie to my face I just want you to be honest
If you get a girl don't you tell her that you love her cause these lil females out here only want you for your pockets
But there's very few
That's gon really keep it true
And once you find the one you gon feel it in your conscious
So if you feel the vibe
Better keep her by your side
And just keep it real with her just like the way you keep a promise
Keep it real with this music
These people really like the way that ZUMA get into it
And they know that I'm the truest
Feeling like Ashanti cause I'm never moving foolish
Just vibe with the music
Block negative energy if you run into it
Live life to the fullest
ZUMA be the best and I have my ways to prove it
But I really wanna blow up I just wanna do better
For my people out there who be stuck up in that ghetto
Out there on that block chasin loot with the fellows
And they really tryna get it so they down for whatever
Pray for sunny days cause they in that cold weather
Bussin on them pipes so they down for dat pressure
No matter what you do you just gotta keep it true to yourself lil wodie that's how you keep it together
Keeping it together
The hardest thing to do
Because these people judge you not knowing what you've been through
They talk down on you when you try to make some moves
But once they see you up they gon try to come through
Maybe dap you up with a smile on they face
But deep down inside man these people hella flake
They just see what you got so they try to give and take and they don't care if you done ate them boys just really want your plate
But you know imma keep on grinding imma keep on being patient
Getting to the money you can say I'm paper chasing
Hating on lil ZUMA cause they know that I'm the greatest
And them boys worried bout me cause they know that imma make it
Know that imma make it
Gotta be the greatest
If the time is right best believe I'm gonna take it
Sorry to the ones who they feel I've replaced them
Found some new people who don't make me feel so basic
And that's real
ZUMA
