"Block love me with a deep reverence, I was birthed in a C-Secction" - Nipsey Hussle

They say you can't turn a bad girl good
But once a good girl's gone bad, she's gone forever
I'll mourn forever
S***, I've got to live with the fact I did you wrong forever

"I got numbers in my phone that'll never ring again
'Cause Allah done sent them home, and they'll never-uh"

"The last time that I kissed you, you felt cold but you looked peaceful
I read our message thread when I get low and need a refill"

When Kanye says "Will I ever love again?" on Coldest Winter
it's a line common in songs but knowing what Ye was going through at the time it cuts deep. even now it's such an important song in his discography to me

Damn

"She's all I got and I don't wanna be alone" in weezer's No Other One is so perfect to me, because it's sung like it's this big romantic gesture, but when you look at what he's actually saying, it's this depressing look into someone so lonely and miserable they stay with someone they don't like because it's better than being alone to them

"But I like that girl too much I wish I never met her"

lifes a b**** and then you die

Don’t do that my nigga that won’t be smart ☝🏽🤓

the world is yours but the city's mineeeeee

“Got a lot on my plate, but I never complain”

Future from Thought It Was a Drought

Aesop Rock spent his entire career filtering his life experience through riddles and ciphers only to break down on the third verse of Gopher Guts in one of his most straight forward verses. It's like the Rosetta Stone to his entire body of work. Cathartic and heartbreaking. That opening line hits like a shotgun:

I have been completely unable to maintain any semblance of relationship on any level

cut that b**** off like Van Gogh
-Carti

probably one of the most intense, interesting, and cool presentations of ending a relationship Ive ever heard. Just everything abt that metaphor is so good. the more u think abt it the better it gets...
