[Intro]
King County born, Carolina raised, what up (x3)
King County born, Carolina raised, what up (x3)
I'm King County born, Carolina raised
And today feels like one of them Carolina days
[Verse 1]
Don't worry 'bout where I'm going
Just know that I'm riding
Soon as iLLkLa** sent the beat
The words hit me like lighting
I went from writing stories in the shelter with my mama
To writing 16s, and having baby mama drama
Hold up, nah, she don't like when I call her that
So, we can just say my son's mother's been on my back
Yeah, she be stressing me out, but he's worth all the fussing
So, on days when I feel like I just woke up from a concussion
I take a look at him, and I can't help but crack a smile
Who woulda known at 21, I woulda had my first child
Meanwhile still going to school, and penning these verses
Digging deep into my thoughts, hoping these songs will surface
Ain't no time for being nervous
That ain't in a king's purpose, you got to earn this
'Cause greatness is something you can't purchase
In search of the perfect method to take all my stress away
I sit back, relax, and enjoy this Carolina day, what up
[Hook]
So much stress on my mind
I'm feeling blessed but at times, I find
Never mind, I won't go that way
Don't wanna focus on the pain, just stay true to my name
While I'm making the most out of this Carolina day
This Carolina day, Carolina day, what up
This Carolina day, Carolina day, what up
This Carolina day, Carolina day, aye, what up
Aye, what up, aye, what up, aye, what up, aye, what up
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I'm still down for the hopeless
I say it all the time 'cause i don't want to lose focus
And I know how it feels
When your at the bottom of the rope
There's a lot more of us than it is of them
Let's take this whole s**t back, yeah
But, that's for another song
Bappin' ain't easy, and I'm just tryna put my brother on
And spit the kind of verses that'll send these other rappers home
And teach the next generation the way we've been living is wrong
I pray they never wanna sell a stone, or hit a lick, or call a woman a b***h
This that intelligent street muzik from me to you
Just a lil something to help to get you through
Them tough times when your in your own way
Just sit back relax and enjoy this Carolina day, hey
Them tough times when your in your own way
Just sit back relax and enjoy this Carolina day, what up
[Hook]
So much stress on my mind
I'm feeling blessed but at times, I find
Never mind, I won't go that way
Don't wanna focus on the pain, just stay true to my name
While I'm making the most out of this Carolina day
This Carolina day, Carolina day, what up
This Carolina day, Carolina day, what up
This Carolina day, Carolina day, aye, what up
Aye, what up, aye, what up, aye, what up, aye, what up
[Outro]
I'm King County born, Carolina raised
And today feels like one of them Carolina days
