[Verse] Broke and, uh, broke again No repair for me, I'm broke again No fix, all cash spent On drugs and rent Somebody find my brothers in the back of the alley Put 'em in a cab, bring 'em back to me Tell 'em I know how it be Man, I ain't got no weed I know the vibe you seek I know your tendencies Got friends and family Like, "You don't call me" And, "Why you in the street?" "You don't care about me" "You're not worried 'bout me" But that's not true [Chorus] And I don't want to die, but sometimes I do Just for a little while, to feel the peace, to feel new And I don't want to cry, but sometimes I do For a little while, for me, for you For a little while, for me, for you For a little while, for me, for you For a little while, for me, for you For a little while, for me, for you [Verse 2] Where did my brother go? Was it back to jail, rehab, or in the morgue? The man don't have a home 'Cause I just checked my phone Said, "Where the hell you at?" Said, "I've been working," oh Told him, "You're not alone You've got a place in my home" But it's too late for that I'm still trying to move back Still on my hustle, I stack I wish I could tell you that I wish you were here right now I'm trying to find a way out I'm trying to do better now I'm trying to do better now [Chorus] And I don't want to die, but sometimes I do Just for a little while, to feel the peace, to feel new And I don't want to cry, but sometimes I do For a little while, for me, for you For a little while, for me, for you For a little while, for me, for you For a little while, for me, for you For a little while, for me, for you [Verse 3] The government killed ODB The government killed ODB The government killed ODB Just
