G-S Tha Dream - Moment of Silence

Yeah
Look

I just need a moment of silence
Cause I just lost my cousin to violence
All these deaths are so tiring
I really need a different environment
'Cause every other day its crying mothers and violins
It's harder
When you're raising two daughters in the struggle
Every time I hear them say "Daddy" I know I gotta hustle
Til I'm on the same status as a Nipsey or a Russell
I rap, produce and mix. I'm tryna get a triple-double
The good die young, especially where I'm from
So if a n***a still around, there's a chance he'll gun you down
My mama prolly think I look so handsome in a crown
She knows that she raising a king and the whole world can see it now
And every time you see me, the same people around
'Cause if you're sharing your success and not your struggle you're a clown
Deano gon be loyal til they put me in the ground
I just pray I make it before someone guns me down

I just need a moment of silence
I just lost a cousin to violence
I just need a moment of silence
I just lost my cousin to violence
So Can I get a moment of silence?

I don't really think you understand the thoughts inside my dome
You don't know my heart drops when my family hits my phone
Cuz I barely talk to em. Unless somethings going on
You don't know how much I think about they day he calls me home
You don't know how many times I felt death around the corner
How many times I shoulda asked for help but I ain't wanna
You don't know how many times I played Spaceship
DreaMing bout when I make it
Every 9-5 feels like I'm slaving
I just wish this music made enough for me to pay rent
When you're passionate it's hard as fuck for you to make hits
Talking bout nothing. Talking bout money
Bragging about the shit you have like life is all sunny
I need to start treating my family like I fuck with em
Instead of keeping them at distance like I'm stuck with em
Pressure from all of these emotions feel like a truck hit em
I need this bloodshed to stop. We had enough victims
Look at my lady. I love her because she pray for me
As if she understands that this could be the day for me
Like granny posted with open arms at the gate for me
But I ain't ready. For now she gone have to wait for me
Look at my lady. I love her because she pray for me
As if she understands that this could be the day for me
Like granny posted with open arms at the gate for me
But I ain't ready. For now she gone have to wait for me

Can I get a moment of silence?
I just lost my cousin to violence
Can I get a moment of silence?
