Stars

(From the trenches to the stars, yeah)

Mama cried ’cause the rent was late

I was outside tryna flip that weight

Cold nights, hoodie on, had to risk my fate

Seen homies die young, man, it’s hard to pray

Every dream that I got came from nightmares

Had to fight through the hate, they don’t fight fair

Heart froze but I’m still tryna care

We was broke but I swear I was right there

And I done seen the bottom, seen the worst of the worst

I put my pain in this music, now I’m makin’ it work

Every scar on my soul just remind me of worth

They throw dirt on my name, but I came from the dirt

I’m from the trenches to the stars now

Every L that I took made my heart proud

I can’t fall, I can’t break, I can’t slow down

Had to grind every night just to glow now

From the trenches to the stars now (yeah)

From the trenches to the stars now (uh)

I can’t let ’em take my heart now (no)

From the trenches to the stars now

We was ridin’ with no destination

But I still had a vision and some dedication

Lost my dog, man, I’m still tryna face it

I’ve been searchin’ for peace, but I still can’t place it

Couple chains on my neck, but it’s deeper than that

’Cause the pain in my chest, I can’t keep it intact

If you ain’t from where I’m from, you don’t see where I’m at

Had to hustle from the bottom just to even the stats

I put my life on the line, they don’t see what I risk

Every shot that they took, I was there for the hit

I was prayin’ for a change, they was prayin’ I quit

Now I’m prayin’ for my dawgs ’cause they still in the mix

I’m from the trenches to the stars now

Every L that I took made my heart proud

I can’t fall, I can’t break, I can’t slow down

Had to grind every night just to glow now

From the trenches to the stars now (yeah)

From the trenches to the stars now (uh)

I can’t let ’em take my heart now (no)

From the trenches to the stars now

Yeah…

We came from the mud, but we ain’t stay there

From the bottom to the sky, I swear it ain’t fair

But every tear, every loss made me way rare

From the trenches to the stars, I’ma stay there
