Apple of My Eye Rick Ross (Ft. Raphael Saadiq)

[Intro: Rick Ross]
(Hahahah!)
Just being somebody that the neighborhood respected
And my mama could be proud of, was the apple of my eye
That's all I ever wanted, just being something, man
So at that point what else can you ask for?
(M-M-Maybach Music)

[Verse 1: Rick Ross]
Tears runnin' down a nigga face
In a room full of failures, I feel out of place
Still sleepin' on the floor when you deserve better
Got you reekin' through the cold even in warm weather
I told Meek, "I wouldn't trust Nicki
Instead of beefin' with your dog, you just give 'em some distance"
We all make mistakes, let's not be too specific
We like, "I rather be a killer than be a statistic"
I never fold, no, I never ran
On my soul, I'll roll like an avalanche
I thank the Lord I got some great friends
That's why every bottle I open, I say, "Amen"
Just had seizure at the Super Bowl
Woke up in the third quarter lookin' for the smoke
If it's more than a quarter million, I'll count it twice
Pucci broke my heart, shit, I call it life
And never will I call it right
Not perfect but I'm the one you would call at night
Travelin' the world, I'm just reppin' my city
But rarely do I hear that this nigga done did it
When niggas in fatigues will keep you intrigued
'Cause the loss of life's the only thing niggas believe
So I pray you listen carefully
Then I become another motherfuckin' casualty
