Daquanboi - Tough Love

We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We in a world, yea
Call my momma and daddy, tell em I made it
When I reach the pinnacle, wait I never made it
When I really don’t understand how it feels
Damn, now I’m really gonna get into my feels
When black teenagers were killed on the streets
As the mother say “not my baby” as they cry and weep
Without a father to hear about the story
As he’s fucking other bitches, he felt he’s glory
They can’t believe that another just went down
Black community come together and pray in the town
On the news, 5-O says he had a weapon
Shot the kid 8 times because he felt threatened
As they go into his pockets he had his phone a snickers bar and a wallet
He had a letter, he had a report card, he had knowledge
Was gonna surprise his mom he’s going to college
The future he had was demolished
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We in a world
Just walked from the restroom
Theirs a girl chillin in the classroom
She was a beautiful girl, grade A student
Never had drugs, she’s clean she never abused it
On day I walked in she was sniffing and crying
She told me something else, I know she was lying
When I reached for a hug I see the marks
She cut herself just to take the pain off
I told her “Talk to me, I’m here for you
Talk to me, I’ll try and fix it for you”
She said “All I want is happiness, no one treats me the same
They all treat me differently, I just want it to change”
When she got home, she writes a letter and she writes a note
She took heavy pills down the throat it goes
In a matter of minutes she was gone, now the world is cold
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
We live in a world with tough love
This what she wrote
Hey, I’m sorry that I wasn’t with you last period
I didn’t want you to see me crying. I keep telling you that I’m fine but I wasn’t
I was just too scared to talk to you about it because I didn’t know how you was going to react
I’m really sorry, I just want you to know that I won’t be at school anymore
I’m going away for a while. I miss the fun times we had together
So keep this letter, don’t trash it or anything because I want to be there with you no matter what
It’s just letting you know that you still have me somewhere in your life
I love you & I miss you
