The accompanying music video further amplifies the track’s themes of reconciliation, serving as a powerful visual plea to his inner circle.

Quotable Lyrics:
Either with us or against us
Get down to lay down
Made it from the trenches
Now we makin’ toasts
Celebratin’ ni**as’ business
Y’all don’t really get it
Dog is really home
Every other post, dog got different bros
Oh, no, no, that’s not day one sh*t
That’s dumb sh*t
All my dogs solid as they come, baby
Those are my ni**as still with us
Those that stayed down through rough waters on the river
A few jumped ship, it is what it is
My life not still for me to even trip
Bunch of beautiful chicks, overseas trips
With the same dogs that was here for me (Real)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
All my dogs got the dog in ’em, all in ’em, all dogs
Dog, got the dog in ’em, all in ’em, all my dogs
Baby, I’m sorry
One of my biggest fears is losin’ you to the internet
Wakin’ up in our bed with you right by my neck
Sayin’, “Don’t you break a sweat”
Pillow talkin’ ain’t my game
Pillow talkin’ ain’t my name
Pillow talkin’ ain’t my name
Baby, I love you
I know you see this rain, I know you feel my pain
Look at these ni**as bashin’ me like Jesus ’cause I made it
Look at all this sh*t we’ve been through, baby cryin’ in Mercedes
Fuck a jail call, I was playin’, I’d never trade you
You was encouragin’ me on my bad days
You pick the kids up, despite me bein’ away
That’s why every day you wake up, I’m tryna make you happy
I’m sorry for bein’ a part of these h*es laughin’ at you
I’m sorry for takin’ you from who had you
Just to put you through this madness, I’m the reason you crashin’
How the hell you go to jail for me bein’ bad?
I’m the reason they bashin’ you, damn
