I know you know we've had some better days
I know you know sometimes it's pouring rain
it's such an ugly thing
when we have money pains
so when this record drops, I hope it makes some money rain
they tell me fame is a bitch
but if fame shields the pain some days and makes it quit
I'm okay with that
my mommas good
shit I'm okay with that
and both my fathers good, no longer have to break they backs
into retirement because they got mileage
they should be driving less and get they flight permits
because they gone need them
when them angles come retrieve them
and leave them in they final place
somewhere beyond that outer space
I'm trying to ease they mind some
before that time come
no need to remind them
each fight that father times won
these years are short
so I'll be right behind them
and hope to find them right on that other side, so
CHORUS
This just my heart to heart with ya
I know I barely talk with ya
we feel so far apart would ya
please listen to my heart to heart
Repeat 2X
VERSE 2
Ain't nothing guaranteed past today
I don't really want to leave if I feel some type of way
my body can't stay
if my souls gotta go
getting older everyday
I wish time would go slow
I got rhymes, I got shows
but I still want doe
and I still want to feel what it's like when I blow
just a product of the 80's
ever since we were babies
exposed to two roads
it's the drugs or the crazies
and just maybe, we can walk away unscathed
from the things that take are fathers far away
it's the drugs, it's the gangs
it's the lust and the shame
and the lies that they told with cold eyes and straight face
so, I know you know we've had some better days
I know you know sometimes it's pouring rain
they say what you give then you can take away
so I hope I have it all when you take me someday
CHORUS
This just my heart to heart with ya
I know I barely talk with ya
we feel so far apart would ya
please listen to my heart to heart
Repeat 2X
