I’m old enough to know better, young enough to not give a fuck,
Rather hold my head high and die than living duck.
Remember I was down to die just to live it up,
But life’s a bitch and that judge is quick to give her up.
They say that life is short, several looking through the bars,
Gotta keep your head up, I be looking too the stars.
I been through alot wasn’t looking for no cause,
They ain’t kill me, though, now I’m here looking at the scars.
Sometimes you get caught by people looking from a far
That’s how it is when you out here taking cookies from t the jar.
That’s what my son said, they came and took him and his draws
He support the family, they took the mama favorite bra
The feds snatched my favorite bra,..
These the rainy days they say you should be saving for.
But when sun shines no one carries umbrellas
And if they did, they would look at us as dumbfellas.
I’m trying to become something they probably become jealous,
Have a lot to say about it, but afraid to come tell us.
I’m here to beat the odds that were set against me,
Wish the worst luck to anyone who bet against me.
I wanna be somebody, somebody that’s never been
No squares in my circle, best shape I ever been.
I’m growing up, my daddy planted a seed,
My mama watered me with a plan to succeed.
I was that kid in the ghetto, hand full of seeds,
But I’m here now and I don’t plan a recede.
Sometimes I think I lucked up at the right time,
Imagine I would’ve fucked up that night slime.
It hurts to even think about it,
Would be in the streets, thirsty, trying to get a drink up out it
Black hoodie, I pull that quarto cinco out it
Put that iron to your clothes
Like I’m taking wrinkles out it.
Take every Franklin, Grant, Jackson and Lincoln out it,
Look you in the eyes and tell you don’t you even think about it.
So as you’re hearing dropping this rhyme,
Know that my opportunity couldn’t be stopped at a dime.
The life you chose come from lack of options in time,
Gotta do what you gotta do, even opting to crime.
And who am I? Without a name dropping it, I’m,
Someone who saw the top and didn’t stop, he just climbed.
Someone who get money without dropping a dime
Transform to your leader and my optimus prime.
So, for dinner we stopping at prime,
Round of that patron, top it with lime
Hold ’em up, look at your niggas and say
There was no way out, but we figured a way.
And now we chill, loaded up and still,
I just wish a nigga would but I know a nigga will.
But for real, good is how you feel,
But as soon as a nigga good is as soon as a nigga will.
And we don’t own these niggas nothing,
Put that in a nigga will, yeah.
