Heavy Is The Load Lyrics

On July the 8th, 1995, I came around

On Imperial St. Francis, born and raised inside the town

Ever since that day, always knew that I would wear a crown

Making waves for project babies and my dawgs that's on lockdown

Ran with a crew, circle small, but I stay with a few

But when push came to shove, I knew that I could count on one or two

Had to separate myself from niggas, knowing I can't trust them

Ridin' around, they got they pistols, but don't know if they gon' bust them

If they had to, pass it to me, nigga, I'd be glad to

Temper quick as hell, you talking crazy, then I'm at you

Lapping all these niggas, we ain't stagnant, bitch, I'm past you

Ain't salty on no hoe that had to go, shit, I had you

Thoughts behind this wheel, pushing whips on down this road

Mash the gas, I'm going fast, no red lights, bitch, I'm on go

Been trying to battle breaking down, but tell myself that I won't fold

Knew that back at five years old

Heavy is the load

Come on

Heavy is the load

Yeah

Heavy is the load

Come on

Heavy is the load

Yeah

Heavy is the load

Look, heavy shoulders, heavy heart, heavy mind, heavy spirit

Being pushed every minute, being pushed to the limit

Got no calls, got no visits, got no message, got no hugs

How I carry all your baggage, but you ain't giving me love

What the fuck is that

You try to say that's love, but ain't no love in that

I'm there for you, but you ain't there for me

And I don't fuck with that

The shit that I experience

Your actions so delirious, my piece, I take that serious

The inner you is hideous in my eyes

Sight on 2020, I see everything

Ain't hurting for no friends or no family or no wedding ring

People so deceitful, roaming around the evils

It's all give and no take, especially when they need you

Told myself that I won't stress, shit that's not in my control

Sometimes I sit back and I think, why did God give me this soul

Or why did God give me this strength

To carry all that I can hold

Grandma told me once before

Heavy is the load

Come on

Heavy is the load

Yeah

She told me heavy is the load

Come on

Heavy is the load

Yeah

Whoa, heavy is the load

Whoa, heavy is the load

Whoa, heavy is the load
