[Intro: James Fauntleroy]
|
Stay close to me, so close to me
|
That's how it's supposed to be
|
Long as you've been knowing me
|
You been holding me down,
|
I'm sure as fuck, so fuck hopefully
|
I watch over you, you watch over me
|
And that's how it's supposed to be
|
And we are, alright
|
|
[Hook: James Fauntleroy and Big Sean]
|
Now, when the world's ablaze, the stars will fall
|
The lights go off
|
Say its going to be, alright
|
Its going to be, alright
|
Cause, when the world's ablaze, the stars will fall
|
The lights go off
|
Say its going to be, alright
|
Its going to be, alright
|
|
Just tell me it'll be, tell me it'll be
|
Tell me it'll be, tell me it'll be [x3]
|
|
[Verse 1: Big Sean]
|
"Might not make it this time"
|
Is what not to say at this time
|
Sometimes, the truth ain't what you need to hear
|
And you tell them they alright, when they need a cure
|
I'mma believe in paradise if I don't see the sand
|
Only palm trees I got is this weed off in my hand
|
Around the same time my mom said "Sean, you need a plan
|
Mrs. Freeman's son, across the street got shot,
|
Now she need a hand!"
|
Traumatized, gotta watch, his momma cry
|
Now I gotta look up, up in his momma eyes, tell his momma lies
|
Like, "It's gonna be alright," knowing it ain't alright
|
I know there's just so much pain, and there's probably more on the way
|
|

[Verse 2]
|
You know I love you momma like she mine,
|
Whether we together, or we trying
|
We fuck, three times, we smoke, tree times
|
We climb, I left, came back in town, it wasn't in time
|
The cancer done came, it just hit it's prime
|
It came from the breast, just spread to the spine
|
It might make her blind, she stare at the blinds:
|
"This can't be my mom!"
|
Got me thinking, "whats a girl to do, a girl to do?
|
When her world's a pool?
|
And she comes up for air, and it's walls of flames
|
And all the stress is all propane
|
She's burned again"
|
Hoping I could make her smile
|
Take cancer and David Blaine it out,
|
POOF! Disappear, God make an out!
|

[Outro: James Fauntleroy]
|
Stay close to me, so close to me
|
That's how it's supposed to be

Long as you've been knowing me
|
You been holding me down,
|
I'm sure as fuck, so fuck hopefully
|
I watch over you, you watch over me
|
And that's how it's supposed to be
|
And we are, alright [x3]
