Nino Bless - My Time lyrics

[HOOK] They tried to tell me I'd never make it but I did You don't know the struggle in life That I lived I look and smile at them haters Cuz I know it's my time Know its my time Yes its my time... [VERSE 1] I been hated on and doubted But never bitter about it Just sittin and jotting patient I knew this sh** was so crowded Then got my chance made the best of it Shined with the best of em Some even bested him Now nino blesses em On NINO, care if I sell a million records or none Or if they always say I'm second to pun Whatever's destined to come I'm just glad I can let you hear these rhymes From a pad and I made moms and dad proud Made it out the ghetto survived sh** I'm alive That's good enough when I think of my life My life Growing up young wasn't looking hot Many locked up dead or set up by a crooked cop That's brooklyn ock Pops lived by a hooker spot Seen a close friend drop when he took the shot So how could it phase me if I'm in some group or not Yo, you think I really give a hoot if your coupe is dropped? n***a, I'm just glad that the soup is hot Glad the roof over my head And I could look at pops Like dad I did it legit Hustled as a Jit Know you and mama suffered so I had to quit I'm grown changed for the better These are the things at Make me not rap for the cheddar Or a chain and I might not be doing it up in your eyes dog I'm a success to myself that means a lot more [HOOK] They tried to tell me I'd never make it but I did You don't know the struggle in life That I lived I look and smile at them haters Cuz I know it's my time Know it's my time Yes it's my time.. They tried to tell me I'd never make it but I did You don't know the struggle in life That I lived I look and smile at them haters Cuz I know it's my time Know its my time Yes its my time.. [VERSE 2] I made my decision that's it There's no second guessing Leaving stress in this booth That some of you connect with See the essence of truth Is that you won't lose the message I ain't recession proof I'm more like proof there's a recession Lesson learned less is earned When you go this route Bless is firm and determined Through all the doubt You put me down but look now How I put it down I stood my ground thru the worst Look how good it sounds As a child seen things Pops tried fightin Coke sniffin Those addictions had moms frightened What you know about your pockets light and Wearing LA gears 6 months after they stopped lighting In hindsight it messed with my mind But with faith I aced and breezed through the test of time Listen I'm A product of my environment So don't mind the stress Just tryna live while defying the odds that I'm against [HOOK] I could feel it its my time now.. Can't explain the feeling just gotta grind now So close and I could feel it Like I know it's my time Know it's my time Yes its my time They tried to tell me I'd never make it but I did You don't know the struggle in life That I lived I look and smile at them haters Cuz I know it's my time Know it's my time Yes it's my time.. They tried to tell me I'd never make it but I did You don't know the struggle in life That I lived I look and smile at them haters Cuz I know it's my time, Know it's my time Yes it's my time
