Bangin On Dem Tables

Yeah
Jo paradise on the beat
Romeondatrack on da beat
Yeah
Come on
Look
I remember we was bangin' on dem tables
Wasnt thinkin' bout no money wasnt thinking bout no labels
We was just a couple niqqas in the ghetto living basic
We was tryn to stay together we was prolly thinking famous
We aint know about no money or the lack of its what made us
We aint no about our mothers and they struggle tryn to raise us
Wit our fathers in them places where they eat or they get ate
And a niqqa prolly kill u if he find oht thata you hating
But let me slow it down let me get back to them basics
When a niqaa was 8 and only thought about spaceships
To take him to different places
Where niqqas wouldnt go in his room and try to take shit
Where family wouldnt ruin the mood all on some fake shit
Tell you that they love you then turn around and they take it
Man i used to hate it
But fuck it im more complacent
Im always gon see they faces
But in the back of my mind i always felt it was blatant
Memories of greatness just in the makin
I always knew I would make it
I always knew it was late
And i knew if i followed steps i only had to be patient
Cuz everything that i dreamed is finally starting to shape
And i did it witout ya help
I did it all in the basement
I did it all in the attic
I knew that i had to have it
I almost became an addict
Them substances almost had em
But as i was fighting demons
The angels became my habits look
This is everything i dreamed momma
And all these goals that i said im gon achieve momma
You just gon have to believe momma
You just gon have to believe momma
Keep it honest ion really wanna scheme momma
I gotta go know you gon miss me when i leave momma
(Miss me when i leave)
But they gon remember me komma
Uh huh
They gon remember me

You ever chase a dream by chase i mean so lucidly
So lucidly that you could touch smell you could even see
Everything thats in yo mind is evrything that you can be
Then you notice you aint sleep all you gotta do is blink
Lookin back man i wouldnt even notice me
Im so glad that life aint nothing like it used to be
Lost is what i used to be
Selfish people using me
I behaved so foolishly
Just wasting opportunities
Reminiscing on how i became so distant
That distance just made me
Different that difference just made me listen
To voices all in my head reminded me that im gifted
All i ever needed was hard work and persistence
All i ever needed was loyalty and commitment
My brothers is always wit me the lord is always wit me
There's royalty in my blood theres royalty in my linen
My story is far from finished the serpent cant write a sentence huh
I wake up and I pray
I got my mom to thank
Im thankful for the day
My pain showed me the way
The truth is in the light
That light is in my face
My tongue is a sword
It aint much more to say
Ima take my time
Cuz really aint no time to waste
And im so full of grace it really aint no space for hate
Mistakes made me great
I hope you all relate
I hope you all relate
I live to create
This is everything i dreamed momma
And all these goals that i said im gon achieve momma
You just gon have to believe momma
We just gon have to believe momma
Keep it honest ion really wanna scheme momma
I gotta go know you gon miss me when i leave momma
But they gon remember me momma
They gon remember me
