I promised mama I'ma buy a house
So much siblings had to sleep on the couch
Came to the point where I had to get out
Ain't want my fam watch me go the wrong route

We had to struggle, I had to hustle
I had to show 'em niggas what I'm 'bout
I ain't never ever do it for clout
I needed money so I had to bounce

I promised mama I'ma buy a house
So much siblings had to sleep on the couch
Came to the point where I had to get out
Ain't want my fam watch me go the wrong route

We had to struggle, I had to hustle
I had to show 'em niggas what I'm 'bout
I ain't never ever do it for clout
I needed money so I had to bounce

I had to leave
Cause my brothers looked up to me
They noticed me selling weed
I know me leaving I had to take chances
Ain't coming back till I get us a mansion

That's on my life
They don't believe they follow the hype
They never seen what I seen at night
I shed a tear then I hit the mic
I know the feeling the feeling of life

How you gonna live when you stuck in the past
Wanna change things but I can't go back
I'ma focus on the now and put us on the map
Might take time but our time gonna last

I seen the vision than I had to get it
Told 'em my goal and they looked at me different
God is my witness
I gave my love to these people and I don't regret it

I know the shit that I did
Sorry for things that I said
I was wrong I admit
Used to say that I'm a gift
I know you still think I'm it

Mama I promise I got it
Nothing like buying whatever you wanted
I feel ashamed when I can't afford it
I feel the pain and I can't ignore it

I didn't choose the life that I live
I was emotional, I was a kid
Came to the point where I was gonna quit
I felt like one day I didn't exist

I didn't choose the life that I live
I was emotional, I was a kid
Came to the point where I was gonna quit
I felt like one day I didn't exist

I ain't never ever do it for clout
I needed money so I had to bounce

They never notice the shit we go through
They ask me questions, I don't got a clue
They always hate when you do something new
I'm focused on me I ain't worried about you

I take a loss, and know it's a lesson
I know life hard but shit is a blessing
I didn't get it till I got the message
I gotta get it my mind is the weapon

I gotta go, I know one day I'ma blow
One day you got it then one day you don't
So better go hustle you think this a joke
I learned a lot when I used to be broke

I had to get up and stay on my own
I had a dream then it turnt to a goal
I couldn't sleep man I had to stay woke
Feeling emotions I had to let go

I promised mama I'ma buy a house
So much siblings had to sleep on the couch
Came to the point where I had to get out
Ain't want my fam watch me go the wrong route
