Jackboy Hear Me Crying Lyrics

[Intro]
(I love you, Dzy)
(I love you too, my dude)

[Chorus]
Standing in the rain
Was trying to see, I'm trying to see if I could wash away the pain
Somehow, I maintain
Even though these crackers want me dead or locked up in the chain gang
Lord, do you hear me crying?
I know your love really real, but I don't know why we dying
I know that you see me trying
But I'm really in that field, I can't put down my iron

[Verse 1]
I'm really in that field, I can't put down my iron
Tote heavy steels, I can't let you take me from mine
Free my nigga Bill, my nigga there one of a kind
He ain't never got worried, but I'm keeping it real, I'ma do that without trying
And none of you f*ck niggas ain't seeing us, y'all legally blind
Can't be compared to none of these rap niggas, we really live our rhymes
Compare me to one of these big fat niggas, I got cake all the time
Swear to God, I was raised 'round them trap niggas who be bagging dimes
Flew out of state, was making for a date, but now I'm packing nines
I be all gas, no brakes, like it's f*ck traffic signs
Plus one of my niggas just died, we going through tragic times
f*ck 2020, I wish I could just press rewind
I promise that I will never stop until I see all my niggas shining
I'll go buy for one of my dawgs 'fore I buy these bitches diamonds
'Member when I used to starve, I was living like a Viking
Had to turn these haters to believers, remember the titans

[Chorus]
Standing in the rain
Was trying to see, I'm trying to see if I could wash away the pain
Somehow, I maintain
Even though these crackers want me dead or locked up in the chain gang Lord, do you hear me crying?
I know your love really real, but I don't know why we dying
I know that you see me trying
But I'm really in that field, I can't put down my iron

[Verse 2]
See, way before this fame
Before I ever thought the world would know my name
I was riding 'round town snatching people's chains
And I know that I should change
But that evil shit still be coming to my brain
Trying to keep it cool, it's starting to drive me insane
Standing in the rain
And he toting a big-ass flame
Trying to turn one these f*ck niggas right into a stain
This is not a game
Come run down on your block
'Cause that talking you doing done turned you to an opp
I tried to be good, but they done turned me to a bad guy
Niggas from my hood with the acting like they from the other side
It's like lately, all I see is homicides
It's like lately, all I see is mamas crying
Told my nigga move it smart, I don't wanna see you go away
Gotta stay smart, so we clutching on this throwaway
Gotta stay a step ahead, never know how it might go today
Gotta always use your head, can't let them trick you out your place

[Chorus]
Standing in the rain
Was trying to see, I'm trying to see if I could wash away the pain
Somehow, I maintain
Even though these crackers want me dead or locked up in the chain gang
Lord, do you hear me crying?
I know your love really real, but I don't know why we dying
I know that you see me trying
But I'm really in that field, I can't put down my iron
