Growing up was rough so is today no luck I feel like I got a discounted pass on the Struggle Bus I’m Friends with the driver like “Wattap how you feeling Bud?” Man, Sometimes I feel like I wanna give it up But I think back to the shit that I’ve Accom- plished all the shit they said couldn’t be done Like wattap I opened up for Obie your greasy cunt And D tizzy you said I’d never be the one No sunshine More than sometimes I’m stuck right inside of my little dumb mind Cuz after all the shine and fan love, I’m Reminded how much I Have left on the the climb Gotta relax, sometimes I be trippin I feel like DMX, Slippin Gotta take care of your mind You could be the next victim And fall short of the climb Gain knowledge to aim higher And retort the decline Afraid that I might slip and fall looking back I’ve climbed so high No hook on it I’m only letting it flow Only 8 bars is really cutting it close ‘Specifically when I got me a story to tell in notes It ain’t really fun when you’re hungry, angry and broke Uncle coming through and he smells like liquor and smoke Fell inside my room had a seizure right on my floor Paramedics came couldn’t let that memory go Just some more trauma I’m trying to flip into gross Kept smiling through the stress and increasing debt And I know I got a vision that I’m reaching yet And a loss ain’t a loss it’s a lesson I appreciate the pain as a blessing Could of been an orphan or child soldier for kony So I thank God that we crossed the ocean like Tony Never had glocks or spun the block with homies I will never lie when I’m pouring out with my story Telling you my story It's the real me showing you my heart there's nothing on me no life’s easy still we’re coping I live a life of privilege I’m aware and not unbothered Grew up without a father shoulda had a daughter I don’t know but this life gets harder Every time a bridge burn I’m tryna learn, get smarter Think sharper, on my grind, coach Carter Killin time while I’m jottin these rhymes I’m plottin these lines and they been gettin thicker I been stayin off the liquor I’m focused on gettin richer Rock stages off the richter I’m just gettin started And the real ones here Fake fans departed Highly regarded know I lead with integrity Leavin a legacy, this music's my therapy Don't you love what you get when you’re open Don't you love what you get when you’re honest Don't you know when you give you’re receiving Don't you love what you get when you’re open
