Zipporah Lyrics - And After That, We Didn't Talk - Goldlink

Uh, what's a nigga in America? 

Why the fuck is we here? 

Why you tell me go back where I'm from 

When you dragged me here? 

Why we born to be poor? 

Why our fathers be gone? 

Why my father forsake us? 

Why my momma so strong? 

And on my momma I'd kill ya 

On Faris, I'd kill ya 

Nigga we were so broke, split 20 dollars a weekend 

I, never cried but I realized what we were missing 

My mind had a nigga on edge, I started sellin' and cheatin' 

Said fuck the government, fuck the man 

Fuck the Feds, fuck the law 

See Que was fuckin my girl, too fuckin hungry to care 

I started sellin mo', thinking bout Zip 

Thinking what I did, fucked her friend 

Fucked her homie, then fucked again 

I started sippin on liquor 

Couldn't cope wit the changes 

We went back to the hood 

Started slanging and bangin' 

Feds was outside my house 

Second time we got raided 

Everything was for you 

I want to get you that coupe 

Black and young and a fuck up 

I wanna prove this to you 

That I could be more than a boy 

But a father with you 

I, wish I could change 

But God you made me this way 

So I'm gon keep my faith high 

And bow my head and just pray 

Like this 

Lord Lord, I need, your help, Lord 

Lord Lord, I need, your help, Lord

I was so young and dumb 

You were so young and dumb 

Allan was in the picture 

I was gon' pop dat nigga 

Celebrity status now 

You in a wedding gown 

You was gon' be my wife 

Move to a newer life 

Tried to make dreams with you 

Still I'm so proud of you 

Look at the woman from a girl a flower blossomed too 

The prettiest of them all 

You was gon' have it all 

You was gon' have the mall 

But you still got it all 

Shower you wit' some poems 

Shower you wit' some songs 

Remember the drawing I made? 

Remember the flowers I gave? 

Remember the time that we spent? 

Remember the time that we missed? 

Don't let that happen again 

Go find you a better man 

And go have that baby boy 

And make him a better man 

Tell him his mother loves him 

Just like she used to love me 

And play him this tape for you 

Tell him what we been through 

So we can both raise that child like we promised, we would do
