[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
Thinkin' bout the summers that had just pa**ed
Was working 6 years for somethin' that ain't last
And that flight home had me thinking, sh**..
Like did I jump the plank? Or just abandon ship?
Or do god have this written out like man*scripts
Felt heavy in the wrong, thoughts driven in a song
Like why the f** he got a deal?
When I'm the one that's hunting and he's looking like the veal
This ain't a piece of cake picture standing in my place
You thinking that you knew me all you did was give a plate
I'm calling out bullsh** and throwing down my ace
Was driving down Goshen figured my a** wasn't safe
They out here k**ing people everyday for couple dollars
And you ain't claim your city, so I'll son you like a father
Crazy how those tables turn
Hope that y'all just live and learn
I'll make my own destiny
And swear my life would never burn
[Chorus](2x)
And I, I just really wanna make it there
The thoughts just gotta wait some years
For you I'm gonna make it clear
I, I just really gotta make it there, if you ain't ever knew me
Don't be acting like you take it there, I!
[Verse 2]
This life just been feeling like it's a long task
Like coming out a struggle of a dark past
Could go deep in the story but it's off track
So I'll just keep it simple and break off half
People love a**uming that you made
Like I ain't grow up 'round no section 8
My mama was denied cause the credit wasn't straight
And we ain't have no money so the streets my only place
Not even from the hood, but I love it either way
Learning from my uncle that everything round me fake
Can't even talk to father, so why the f** should I bother?
I'm trynna make a family and gave my lady the promise
These people only love you when you looking like a baller
Seems my luck drew short, thinking 'bout the days
When we puff Newport's
Was sitting on a porch with only visions of allure..
