FIGHTER - SABA, Kaina

Me and E-Guy just fought 'cause his family wouldn’t stop talkin'

We neighbors who argued often, I run, I jog to him

Toss a jab and I caught him, he threw a left, ain’t connect

'Cause I ducked when I came back up, I seen his sister talkin' trash

Like, «Touch my brother, I’m beatin' yo' ass»

(«Touch my brother, I’m beatin' yo' ass, nigga!»)

So I fucked her brother up to see what she about, yeah

Walked away and then we noticed that his teeth was out, yeah

She ain’t do shit, she just mad we got to see her pout

So me and Cell, we just fought, I was walkin' and then he jawed me

I dropped to the floor while calling for help in front of my grandmother’s house

The next hit, he punched me my mouth, I can’t believe I’m on the ground

'Cause I tried to hit him, I gambled, I’m ugly cryin' in public

I’m like, «When I get you back, you gon' wish that you never touched me»

Somehow I never could touch him, our brothers broke the shit up

And I walked the rest of the day with my head down

Funny how gettin' your ass beat’ll spread 'round, yeah

But I don’t wanna fight no more

'Cause I’m not a fighter, I won’t no more

But I don’t wanna fight no more

'Cause I’m not a fighter, I won’t no more

So me and E-Guy, we scrap again

Jacob jumped in, I’m handicapped

Manny watched from across the street

Then he ran up and hopped on me

Three on one, they teamin' up but me, I never think to run

They circling around

Got me surrounded like police or somethin' (Woop-woop!)

So it’s bad enough they already jumpin' me

Then I see Cell comin', I’m prayin', «Please don’t fuck with me»

(«Please leave me the fuck alone»)

It’s not fair and I think he agree

So instead of fighting with them, he came and teamed up with me

Me and Grandpa ain’t talked since I stopped attendin' the college

He called me, said I’m a scholar, I should be gettin' my doctorate

«Or, shit, at least in the army, instead you chose to hip-hopper

I know how this is gon' end 'cause I went through this with yo' father»

Me and my girl just fought 'cause I talked before she could talk

She was tellin' a story, I cut her off with some shit

Not 'bout the same topic, so she just stopped in the middle

Before the plot hit, the rest of the car ride silent

Like «You always do this,» like, «You don’t value my thoughts

Either that or you too damn stupid to realize

That if you don’t hear me out then I’ma feel muted

You say that you care, well show it, I’m not askin' a lot

I know you think you listenin' but you just waitin' to talk»

My fault

But I don’t wanna fight no more

'Cause I’m not a fighter, I won’t no more

But I don’t wanna fight no more

'Cause I’m not a fighter, I won’t no more

It’s harder to love myself when all these people compliment me

Somehow it just remind me what I don’t got

But these folks don’t care to know

They think you rollin' in the dough

Not realizin' your next meal is a 4-for-$ 4

Still feeling the guilt that Walt never thought to call

Fightin' myself to get out of bed

I’m fightin' myself to get out of bed

Fightin' myself

I don’t wanna fight no more

'Cause I’m not a fighter

Yeah, me and all my niggas dropped out

Then we drove to Texas, slept at Waffle House

Kicked out of the hotel, we all broke

We don’t got no mattress, sleep on yo' floor

Me and grandpa ain’t spoke since I dropped out

Made sure on my first tour, stop at his house

I sleep on the hotel, not your floor

He tell me that he proud of his boy

I’m not a janitor no more at Homan Square

Saved up for a round trip, LAX

I just learned it’s no risk, no reward

I slept on the floor at Port Authority

Me and all my niggas dropped tears

Heart been on the floor for a whole year

We all broke (we all broke)

We all broke
