Horizon"s

Y"From the Gutter to the Throne"

(Verse 1)

Born in the storm, raised in the dark,

Mama was cryin", daddy was gone from the start.

Streets took me in, gave me lessons real cold,

OGs told me, "Boy, you gotta move bold."

Late nights, duckin" from the sirens,

Pocket full of pain, heart full of violence.

Hands on the work, runnin" from the truth,

Drownin" in the high, lost in my youth.

(Chorus)

I was livin" too fast, now I’m slowin" it down,

Used to be lost, but I’m homeward bound.

Had to lose it all just to see the light,

Now I’m standin" tall, had to win that fight.

(Verse 2)

Loyalty a lie when the money get low,

Friends turn foes, seen it all before.

Came up servin" from the trap to the block,

Stackin" dirty money, but my soul was on lock.

I was numb, I was hollow, demons in my ear,

Tellin" me tomorrow ain"t promised, so just disappear.

Whiskey in my cup, powder on the plate,

Every move
