5th Street

Bout to take it way back
Way way back
Back to when it all started
Nawmsayin
Ay

It all started on 5th Street
It all started on 5th Street
It all started on 5th Street

And Roosevelt
Back when I didn't really know myself
Back when I couldn't control myself
When I took a couple hits below the belt
Mom was a mess, but she rose from hell
Dad been a bitch, chose to hold his tail
I said fuck school and fuck a show and tell
Then I took leap of faith, when I dove I fell
Take it back - Back to the cul-de-sac
Back when I didn't have to hold a strap
Back before we ever had to trap
Back when I didn't even know how to rap
Back to the days I didn't give a crap
Bout subconscious shit stuck way in the back
Haters know that now I'm on its a wrap
And self doubt no longer holding me back
I said fuck that, going where the bucks at
Plus that talk is cheap, so I really don't trust that
Lying on my name fuck boy you a muskrat
Shoot first so there's no chance for you to bust back
What's that? It's Yung Pape with a come back
And the city yeah they know that I run that
And I broke the matrix I'm on the one that
Used to dream one day I'd become that
Back when I was only 13
Back when I didn't even know what it means
Bout self esteem or to dedicate yourself to a dream
With a full head of steam on a Senzu Bean
Now I'm after mine on the grind like a fiend
Mastermind organize a team
What the mind conceives and believes it achieves
Ay
