Had to get it lit
I got tired of not being shit
Only had one fit
Savage since a jit
Scraping by spending it all on my kid
Broke as a joke I couldn’t commit to the bit
Walk a mile in my shoes yeah I bet you couldn’t
He acting like he want the smoke but he shouldn’t
Made a lot of bad decisions but if I could change it all I wouldn’t
Steady makin moves if you talkin money then I’m fluent
Talkin pussy I smack it out the park like I play for the bruins
Was posted on the block like my name was Patrick Ewing
Half my life I didn’t know what the fuck I was doin
Everything I do every where I go I’m a shoo in
Look at how all that hard work done paid off
I been making money like my name be Bernie made off
I stay away from people because I can’t be another take off
Lotta niggas in my town acting hard but I know that they soft
Dead broke tell me what the fuck would you do
Back against the wall who you gone shoot
Headed to the top boutta blow off the roof
Had some people change up on me but I always stayed true
10 toes down even when I had holes in my shoes
And this the life that I chose
Traded my wife for some hoes
I had cut off some bros
Leveled up on all of my foes
You mess my with my boys we comin and we kickin down your door
Before the safe you know ya boi had racks under the mattress for sure
Blew it all, got it back and blew it all again
But it don’t matter ima keep getting money till the very end
And I ain’t one to pretend
God the only hand that was lent
Had to cut off all of my friends
And it been like that since the beginning
Lord knows that I’ve been sinnin
Forgot what it was like to be winning
Nobody else saw the vision
They watched me drown while they was swimmin
Wouldn’t change a thing because it’s all about the journey
Been through so much pain there’s not a thing that’ll hurt me
All the time I spent hoping that one day they’d know my story
How I made it out the darkness gotta give god all the glory
I was hoping and prayin
On the tight rope while its frayin
One day I went super sayain
Nobody coming to save you
It’s all up to you and who you pray to
This shit ain’t as easy as I make it
See an opportunity you gotta take it
You know im not one to play with
One thing about me I’ve never faked it
Cant wait till I can tell momma I made it
Did this shit for the love of the game dont give a fuck bout being famous
Nobody believed in me but look at me now
Came a long way from the bottom now my safe filled with thous
They was all sleepin on me too many sheep to count
Had to make some noise only way to make it in this world is to do something loud
I wouldn’t take it back because the struggle made me
Thank god for all the attention my parents paid me
Grateful for god because everybody knows he saved me
Had to listen to my angels while the devil was tryin play me
But he aint never gonna win
Took lots of L’s right on the chin
Tryna do right in this world full of sin
