Joey Bada$$ - Thugz Cry Lyrics

How am i hearing this just now?? This is fire 🔥 🔥🔥

Joey Da Billy G.o.a.T

So good.

hoping for an album this year 🙏

Shoulda shouted out Bizzy Bone... fuck it... this is quality Hip-Hop🤜🏾 💥🤛🏾

This song sucked to me on my first listen but it turned into one of my favorite Joey songs

I just wanna be free, yeah
I just wanna be, I just wanna be
I just wanna be, I just wanna be
I just wanna be
I just wanna be free, yeah
I just wanna be, just wanna be
I just wanna be, just wanna be

[Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
Maybe I'm just like my brother
He's never satisfied
Why do we shoot up each other?
This is what it sounds like, when the thugs cry, yeah
When the thugs cry, yeah
When the thugs cry, yeah
When the thugs cry, yeah (I just wanna be, just wanna be)

[Verse 1: Joey Bada$$ & Kirk Knight]
I can't explain the pain (oh no) all I know is chains (oh yeah)
All I know is whips, and all I know is gang gang gang (gang gang gang)
Don't even know my name, and the place from what you came (ooh)
Niggas love to talk, but niggas never change (aw yeah, aw yeah)
Same thing, same faces on the news, this is nothin' new
This is what we knew, we still hangin' by the noose
It's written in the proof, time to face the truth (no no)
Niggas never wanna execute, niggas only make excuse

[Pre-Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
I just wanna be free, yeah
I just wanna be, I just wanna be
I just wanna be, I just wanna be
I just wanna be
I just wanna be free, yeah
I just wanna be, just wanna be
I just wanna be, just wanna be

[Chorus: Joey Bada$$ & Raury]
Maybe I'm just like my brother (maybe I'm just like my brother)
He's never satisfied (he's never satisfied)
Why do we shoot up each other? (Why do we do, why do we do?)
This is what it sounds like, when the thugs cry, yeah
When the thugs cry, yeah
When the thugs cry, yeah
When the thugs cry, yeah

[Verse 2: Joey Bada$$]
Welcome to the high plane, I'm so fly
Won't say my designer's name, know why?
Broke gunners in the wing, shit ain't been the same
Now we honor Jenner, James and the ring
Sweet Jesus
I pray for you non-believers
They say that you never see us
Turn around, sing "Pledge of Allegiance"
Nothin' went with this world
What are we to do with the story?
They gotta never witness your true ways
Better play victims or new slaves
What the hell is with them kids these days?
Get ya guns, the guerillas gon' bang
Treat us like animals in this race
Put that banana clip in your face
'Til you wash all their problems away
I don't plan on doin' laundry today
What's 50 bands to a man like me?
There's this but your whole life just trynna pay the shit back
Can't you see or is you blind?
Screen advertise corrupt your mind
Fill that TVs with so many lies
So many die overtime, hold so many lies, uh

[Chorus: Joey Bada$$ & Raury]
Maybe I'm just like my brother (maybe I'm just like my brother)
He's never satisfied (he's never satisfied)
Why do we shoot up each other? (Why do we do, why do we do?)
This is what it sounds like, when the thugs cry, yeah
When the thugs cry, yeah
When the thugs cry, yeah
When the thugs cry, yeah

[Pre-Chorus: Joey Bada$$]
I just wanna be free, yeah
I just wanna be, I just wanna be
I just wanna be, I just wanna be
I just wanna be
I just wanna be free, yeah
I just wanna be, just wanna be
I just wanna be, just wanna be

[Outro: Kirk Knight]
No law, no law
Ohh Lord, ohh Lord

I dont understand why joey's not spoken in the same light as Kendrick... confusing. So much talent in a young dude for sure.
Eminem
Kendrick
Pac
Nas
Joey Bada$$ (quickly rising)
Big boi from outcast
Cube
DMX
Biggie

For me anyways.

How Is This Not At A Million ?

this song makes me so sad because a couple of months ago my closest sister had been killed by a drunk driver while she was at a stop sign getting read to cross SMH the guy was going over 80 mph on a 35mph road and t boned her on the driver side and she had died instantly on collision and this was the last song she listened to smfh it makes me soo mad and sad but I still can't believe that she's gone I had so many memories 😢 the sad thing is she was only 18 -REST IN PARADISE ❤Mariah Leah Davis
