Apple of My Eye (Explicit) - Rick Ross/Raphael Saadiq

Written by：William Leonard Roberts II

Tears running out of a ni**a face

In a room full of failures I feel out of place

Still sleeping on the floor when you deserve better

Got you reeking through the cold even in warm weather

I told meek I wouldn't trust nicki

Instead of beefing with your dog you just give him some distance

We all make mistakes let's not be to specific

You rather be a killer than be statistic

An never fold no I never ran

On my soul I'll roll like an avalanche

I thank the lord I got some great friends

That's why every bottle I open I say amen

Just had seizure at the super bowl

Woke up in the third quarter looking for the smoke

If its more then a quarter million ill count it twice

Poochie broke my heart sh*t I call it life

An never will I call it rite

Not perfect but I'm the one you would call at night

Traveling the world I'm just reppin' my city

But rarely do I hear that this ni**a done did it

When niggas in fatigues will keep you intrigued

Cause the loss of lifes the only thing that niggas believe

So I pray you listen carefully

Then I become another muthaf**kin' casualty

Always speak and say right

I just never ever walk on by

Never ever walk on by

You even stop and put one in the sky

The sky

You do it for the love of you and I

For the love of you and

Standin' on your block but you so out of place

Uncle on the couch momma running out of space

Lights off so you never tend to speak much

Go your separate ways every time the lease up

A fat ugly ni**a thought ID never be nothing

Another tree stump happy with his free lunch

Duckin' pigeons I'm an eagle on a sunny day

Flap my wings once a week pray I glide safe

I want fried chicken at my funeral

Rolls royce's d**e boys sway interviews

Everybody dying for the same things

Cop kill a ni**a don't nobody gangbang

I'm happy donald trump became the president

Because we gotta destroy before we elevate

Real sh*t look at me inside the white house

With a pocket full of w**d inside the white house

Dead presidents tattooed on a ni**a chest

Us treasury addressing me mad at my address

Own the biggest residential pool is the us

Drake and kanye can invite every b**ch they ever met

Finger f**kin' b**ches in the holy water

Then I go an tell what happened to my only daughter

So her daddy told it to her first hand

Never perfect but its not just bout them purses

Always speak and say right

I just never ever walk on by

Never ever walk on by

You even stop and put one in the sky

The sky

You do it for the love of you and I

The streets could never teach me

All the things I got from you

I found myself in the wrong lane

And I ended up in pain pain

I was strolling down a dark street

When this girl passed me by

She said you've always been a good friend

Always been a good friend

And you never never never let me down

I'll just fall back never turn back

Let it go let it go

I'll just fall back never turn back

Let it go let it go

Always speak and say right

I just never ever walk on by

Never ever walk on by

You even stop and put one in the sky

The sky

You do it for the love of you and I

For the love of you and I
