Birth
My life is different than the lives that been written before
I've met soldiers who ain't fought inside my trenches before
Never had notifications in my mentions before
And I never had the guap to shop at Lennox before
Though my pockets stayed broke somehow my stomach stayed full
That was my mom and dad and government paid food
Not the food stamps but rather free reduced lunch
Couldn't wait to get home to drink my mommas fruit punch
Plus the food she was cooking I had to grab a few chunks
Never could finish it all cause I had way too much
Middle child at the time used to come home crying
Cause my grades and behavior showed that I ain't been trying
In school
Yo I was tryna be cool
Use to hear homies talkin bout girls that they pulled
Curiosity devoured me I sat there a fool
Developing false feelings for this girl at the school
She had my head fast spinning
While my grades kept slipping
I started day dreaming in the back of the room
Wait pull yourself together
Cause you know your brother clever
If he get straight A's you getting wacked with a broom
Discipline at its finest tell me what the time is
To the rest of the world it seemed as if I was the kindest
Back at the crib It seemed as if I was was the trouble some
Talkative and troubled one
In the backseat arguing over bubble gum
I want the last piece he got his way I got the other one
But we still bros dad taught us just to love a one
Love one Another yeah
So I, get to carry on what started way before me
Hoping when I do this that my family supports me
I just wanna touch the masses telling them the deepest stories
But for me to get discovered finding me like finding dory
Its gonna take a while but they'll find me one day surely
Waiting for the day that the dream villas call me
Waiting for the day I get my mule and the 40
And if I never do ill hold on to hope and pride
Cause All I need is God
And he right here by my side
And he right here by my side
And he right here by my side
See I've been thru the worst this may never be the first
Time you ever hear a rapper rap about his birth
His life when growing up all his pain and all his hurt
Written in a song for his story to be heard
But while the people wanna hear it there's a man saying no
Like how dare you wake the masses from the sleep that's been imposed
Continue and we'll prolly have to cancel all your shows
You coulda been a lawyer but this the path you chose I tell em
Oh you tryna stop me, go ahead and try
Over yo dead body then go ahead and die
Cause no man is gon stop me no matter what it cost me
Ima make conscious mainstream to open your eyez
I've met soldiers who ain't fought inside my trenches before
