True Love Lyrics
(Verse)
Same name I come from you
You my nigga told me I can do it all
Told me I would be that nigga growing up back and forth
Love was tough but fuck it though
Wasn't hardly speaking but you kept a nigga comfortable
Kept some food up in the fridge kept the nikes on my feet
All you taught was honesty but somehow we just learned to see
Somehow we just learned the street
We both born in June ,Gemini
Hurt your temper love you nigga let's get high
True love will never die

(Hook)
When I was up,When I was down,you kept me high
Above the clouds ,you my nigga
Protecting me from anything strange
Always kept me right up under your wing
You my nigga, the only guy
That I looked up too
That kept me strong
Never did wrong when it came down to me
The only man that kept me right on my feet
You my nigga
(Verse)
You put that ball inside my crib NBA was all you saw
But I was into other shit ain't get my all out on that court
Scholarships they came and went I ain't felt this famous since
I bounce back spit fire shit I got these haters sick
Your surgery just fucked me up you don't even move the same
I'm motivated just by seeing you talk your shit right through the pain
All my life you hussled hard no degree only street
Knowledge and you showed me shit I never seen
I feel your heart up through every beat
(Hook)
When I was up,When I was down,you kept me high
Above the clouds ,you my nigga
Protecting me from anything strange
Always kept me right up under your wing
You my nigga, the only guy
That I looked up too
That kept me strong
Never did wrong when it came down to me
The only man that kept me right on my feet
You my nigga
(Verse)
Born in Corona, he told me stories of soldiers
All players and gangsters ,pimp players with paper
The second to youngest brother
His older brothers was hussling too
Dollars bags to that boy
With custies getting their mustard up
So they can spread easy
Mama working 3 jobs,pop was running numbers
Vanish for a couple summers
Rest in peace to uncle E
Rest in peace to uncle Steve
Rest in peace to uncle Frank
Rest in peace to aunt B
I know that's where your heart be
(Hook)
When I was up,When I was down,you kept me high
Above the clouds ,you my nigga
Protecting me from anything strange
Always kept me right up under your wing
You my nigga, the only guy
That I looked up too
That kept me strong
Never did wrong when it came down to me
The only man that kept me right on my feet
You my nigga
(Outro)
True love never dies
My nigga,
Yeah
Blood thicker than water nigga
East
True love
