[Intro] Yeah... Westside, you know how we do it Late nights on the block, just me and my thoughts Staring at you while the world goes by I still don’t get why you’re still here with a vato like me For real... [Verse 1] I’m carrying scars from the streets, girl, I ain’t proud of the past Living life in the fast lane, praying I don’t crash Too many nights in the cell, or lost in the dark But you were the only one who didn’t leave a mark You see the side of me the homies never know When the weight of the world makes it hard to grow I ain’t no saint, I’ve been down in the dirt But your love is the only thing that heals the hurt [Pre-Verse 1] And when I look in your eyes, I see a different life No more looking over my shoulder, no more strife How do you love a G that’s been through the flame? I’m still out here wondering how you stay the same [Chorus 1] I don’t deserve you, girl, I’m being real You’re too good for the life I live, the way I feel You bring the sun when my neighborhood gets cold And you’re the only piece of heaven that I get to hold [Post-Chorus 1] Why you love me like that? No cap When my whole life’s been a trap You put my heart back on the map I don’t understand that [Verse 2] You stayed by my side when I was hitting the ground When I was pushing people out and acting like a clown I gave you every reason to hop in the ride and dip But you held it down, you never let the love slip You tell me I’m the one every time I lose my head Putting your hand on my chest when I’m filled with dread Every little thing you do keeps me in a daze ‘Cause nobody’s ever loved a rider in these ways [Pre-Verse 2] You got me praying to the Man above, changing my ways Trying to be the king you see in these dark days If you can find the good in a soul so blue Maybe I can start seeing what you see too [Chorus 2] I don’t deserve you, girl, I’m being real You’re too good for the life I live, the way I feel I’ve been through hell, still you hold me close And I thank God every day that you’re the one I chose [Post-Chorus 2] Love me, love me, why you love me so deep? Even when the secrets of the streets I keep You’re still right here, you’re the one I’m gonna keep And that kind of love is why I don't sleep [Verse 3] So I’m giving you the keys to everything I hide Every tear, every trauma, every pain inside You took a lost soul from the corner, gave him a lane To finally believe there’s a life without the pain And if I make it out this cycle, out this concrete maze I’ll spend every second giving you the praise Out of all the vatos out here, you picked me And that’s the craziest thing I’ll ever see [Chorus 3] I don’t deserve you, girl, I’m being real You’re too good for the life I live, the way I feel But if you stay, I’m never letting go ‘Cause you’re the best thing this hood will ever know [Bridge] Maybe you’re the angel sent to save a sinner Coming through for me, making me a winner The answer to a prayer I didn't know how to say Without you, girl, I’d probably throw it all away [Outro] Yeah... Still tripping on how you're here A queen like you, with a vato like me That’s that real love Westside till the end For real...
