To The People I Needed, Thank You For Leaving (feat. DaniLeigh) - Phora/DaniLeigh.mp3

[00:16.885] Love can make you cold
[00:22.358] Learn to love the pain that makes you grow
[00:25.739] Feels like in my soul
[00:30.504] It hit different when I'm sittin' here alone all by myself
[00:35.454] I still be hopin' that your lyrics are for me, not no one else
[00:39.357] To tell the truth I still got love for you but need to love myself (Myself)
[00:43.471] Say you put me through, you think I hate you but I don't I care
[00:47.761] I still be hopin' that you happy
[00:50.533] All that front left you in the backseat, without me, yeah
[00:55.477] You can't mention me, don't at me (Don't)
[00:59.053] You was wrong but I ain't angry, mm-mmm
[01:04.715] Yeah
[01:05.946] Sorry that it took so long had to find the right words for the right song
[01:09.355] Had to go away for a while, I was workin' on mysеlf, tryna right wrongs
[01:13.681] Dealin' with these dеmons in my head but an angel kept tellin' me to stay strong, yeah
[01:17.709] Now I'm back home, in the studio, with the gang workin' all night long, yeah
[01:21.789] So how can I fail?
[01:23.713] Seven figure checks, come straight to the mail
[01:25.974] They would always say I'd be dead or in jail
[01:27.851] No label, no deal, I ain't takin' no L's
[01:29.911] In the Hills but I'm thinking 'bout the A
[01:31.495] City where I come from, they don't really play
[01:33.300] So the Glocks stay tucked, streets ain't safe
[01:35.326] Devil want my soul so I gotta pray, yeah I gotta pray
[01:37.309] Been hurt, been left, been stepped on
[01:39.949] Killed the game, eight years, still slept on
[01:42.315] Been jumped, been shot, been stabbed
[01:44.501] So the Escalade bulletproof, nigga all teflon
[01:46.439] In the hills doin' drugs with a model chick
[01:48.467] I know my lifestyle wrong, I ain't proud of it
[01:50.729] Lost touch with my faith, I was in a dark place this year
[01:52.603] But I'm blessed to be out of it
[01:54.882] Trips to Greece, trips to Turks and Caic'
[01:56.554] Galleria shoppin' in the H
[01:58.420] Roses in a kitchen table vase
[02:00.356] Just to see a smile on mama's face
[02:02.559] Lost my auntie back in February
[02:04.502] Drown myself in vodka cranberry
[02:06.740] Crazy last thing I ever told her, was "Auntie, I just wanna be legendary"
[02:10.889] It's a lot on my mind, I don't say much
[02:13.574] Lost a lot this year, know it's been tough
[02:15.154] It's no trust, it's no love and I'm still numb
[02:17.065] And I feel like my day ones switched up
[02:19.109] Back then I had to wait in the front
[02:21.018] Now I walk straight to the back of the club
[02:23.121] People scream my name, DJ showin' love
[02:25.116] Make me think back to the times I was
[02:27.111] I lost my bro a block from where I stay
[02:29.107] I was down, they left without a trace
[02:31.208] Billboards in the cities that I lay
[02:33.248] Now they look up and they see my face
[02:35.434] Almost lost my life a couple times
[02:37.479] They gon' have to work it double time
[02:39.664] Hospitals rehabilitation, thinking back, man those were troubled times
[02:43.615] I'm lost and I'm still hurt
[02:45.170] Had a hard time findin' my self worth
[02:46.577] Still struggle with addictions and even though I'm distant
[02:48.957] I think I'm learnin' how to put myself first
[02:51.276] 'Cause I could've OD from the nosebleed
[02:53.213]Mix all kinda pills with the shit
[02:55.197]Maybe I should pick that shit back up (Oh), bet my night on luck
[02:57.191] I was runnin' from it all, know it don't seem
[02:59.263] Like that on Instagram but my life ain't perfect
[03:02.245] I just hope you see beneath the surface, uh
[03:04.284] Put my pain and my life in these verses
[03:06.489] Really I'm just hopin' that it's worth it
[03:08.263] Look, 'fore I'm back for the people again
[03:10.575] McLaren outside, got the keys to the Benz
[03:12.376] Poppin' champagne on another rooftop
[03:14.231] With a blunt screamin', "**** the police and the pigs"
[03:16.396] I ain't had shit to believe in
[03:18.943] They saw me dyin' and they left me here bleedin'
[03:20.834] Pleadin' to God for the answers, the problems I'm facin'
[03:22.716] 'Cause most of this shit is deceivin', but
[03:24.813] I'm happy I'm here and I'm breathin'
[03:26.733] Life taught me all lessons come with a meanin'
[03:28.790] Everything happens to you for a reason
[03:30.729] To the people I needed, thank you for leavin'
[03:33.210] Love can make you cold (Cold)
[03:38.918] Learn to love the pain that makes you grow (That makes you grow)
[03:42.519] Feels like in my soul
[03:46.685] What ain't meant for you gotta let it go
[03:50.561] Gotta let it go, yeah (Gotta let it go)
[03:52.954] Tryna hit your phone, yeah
[03:54.805] Callin' it goes nowhere, nowhere, no
[04:01.389] Oh, oh, ooh, ooh
