Song Cry Lyrics - This Thing Called Life - August Alsina

Sometimes I get emotional 

And I can't seem to find the way I'm s'posed to go 

And all these so-called people that I"m s'posed to know 

They be the main ones 

Smile up in your face, but behind your back they hate 

So I hope you know 

You ain't the only reason I'm emotional 

My tears fall like water so that I can grow 

Not like I was before 

Tryna make a change, I need something more 

I can't hold back these tears 

Let me cry 

They say a man ain't supposed to cry

So I'ma let the song cry 

I'ma let my soul cry through these words 

I need to try to free my mind 

Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt 

But when I let the song cry 

Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine 

Every rose needs the rain sometimes 

But know that you can dry your eyes this time 

Let the song cry 

What am I supposed to do? 

Hold it all together when I think of you 

In my heart I'm thinking you were gone too soon 

May you rest in peace, yet I can't sleep 

It's my point of view 

Got me in a state of mind, I'm so confused 

Crying raindrops so that I can bloom 

So what I am to do?

I can't hold back these tears 

Let me cry 

They say a man ain't supposed to cry 

So I'ma let the song cry 

I'ma let my soul cry through these words 

I need to try to free my mind 

Sometimes I need to cry just to ease my hurt 

But when I let the song cry 

Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine 

Every rose needs the rain sometimes 

But know that you can dry your eyes this time 

Let the song cry 

Let it breathe 

Let it breathe 

Let it breathe 

Let's get it 

I may be cryin' now but I'll be laughin' later 

No way, wouldn't be easy when you're tryna be the greatest 

That ever did it or does it 

Ain't no fuckin' time for later 

And I know they think I'm sporadic 

The bastard child of an addict 

But I'm way too calculated 

I tried to love, but I never knew her 

This money, I'm blowin' through it 

Ain't no rockin' red or blue, I'm unaffiliated 

Cause my bloods and my cousins hate me 

I try to buy my mama's love, no she don't appreciate it 

So I stay inebriated 

I figured maybe J. Cole or Drizzy Drake 

Would drop a verse and tell the people how we hurtin' 

Guess I was mistaken 

This moment mine for the taking 

For all them nights I thought of suicide, contemplating 

I can't hold back these tears 

Let me cry 

They say a man ain't supposed to cry 

So I'ma let the song cry 

I'ma let my soul cry through these words 

I need to try to free my mind 

Sometimes I need to cry just to east my hurt 

But when I let the song cry 

Hope you don't think I still won't ride for mine 

Every rose needs the rain sometimes 

But know that you can dry your eyes this time 

Let the song cry
