Til the War is Won

You know I love you different, my queen, my mother, sister

Protect you with my life, let's deconstruct the myth-uh

You just depressed a bit, and only good for sexin' with you

Let's dismantle that, it's a man you lack

You don't need us, you could handle that

Let's see where the black family at

We need each other, with bad tempers, we defeat each other

Single mothers, my heart's bleeding for you

These coward men, that were beating on you (Never me)

Let's silence them, with a silencer

For the violence of relationships

Hold your head up, don't take that shit, run away from it

I shoulda ran away myself, the amount of pain I was dealt

And I'm a man, my job is to help

Single parent home, came up, now the man is grown

Mom's gone, pop's here, wish God reversed the roles

(Sometimes) If I could've chose, subsidized housin'

Sometimes witnessin' the most foulest things would arouse us

We became numb like pure 'caine on the tongue

To the pains from economical strains

Diabolical games put on our future kings

And our future queens, y'all the strongest ones (Yeah)

May God give strength to women who lost their sons

I give all I have 'til the war is won (Ooh woah, oh-oh)

We're nothing without our women

I give all I have 'til the war is won (Yeah)

(Ooh woah, oh-oh)

I give all I have

2020 flows, everything getting exposed (Exposed)

Who really the bros? (Bros) Who really is goals? (Goals)

Who ready to let it go? All the grudges we hold (Uh)

It's too many fallen soldiers NY to the 'Go (Chi-Town)

Late night outside, you hear the forty drum (Baow)

In every ghetto and all the slums (For real)

These laws made to slaughter us (Damn)

I give all I have 'til the war is won

I was servin' out my mama crib, she ain't know about it (She ain't know about it)

Complaining about my rent, but I know my mama got me (My mama got me)

She told me to be a man, and never sleep through problems (Sleep through problems)

University of the streets, I ain't plan on going to college (Oh yeah)

Why you crying 'bout low income and welfare? (Ooh)

You ain't the only one going through it, this everywhere

Better hold your head, I know it don't feel fair

Reason my people dead and they know I still care

Depending on the people, then you gotta do better

Black lives matter, I'm for real, it do matter (For real, it do matter)

Black-on-black crime, they still do it to whoever (Whoever)

Talking to the trenches, we just gotta do better (Do better)

He think he Martin Luther, but he tryna be a shooter (Tryna be a shooter)

Got his car took, he ride with guns in the Uber (In the Uber)

I'm talking where we from, we carry MACs, but no computers (No computers)

He got out yesterday, but he went in when he was juvie (Chi-Town)

Diabolical games put on our future kings

And our future queens, y'all the strongest ones (Yeah)

May God give strength to women who lost their sons

I give all I have 'til the war is won

She do the best to raise our young

Ooh, she independent and she don't depend on no one

We nothing without our women

Ooh, she independent, went from a girl to a woman

One love to the single mothers

Ooh, oh, yeah, yeah

I give all I have 'til the war is won (Ooh, woah, oh-oh)

'Til the war is won, we gotta stick together

Women, stop chasing your man away

Men, stop acting crazy, chasing your woman away

We all we have 'til the war is won, yeah
