The Divide

I woke up
In a hotel
At the top of that shit
Still stuck here
At the bottom
Of a bottomless pit
Remember days
I's changin diapers
Fillin bottles and shit
Now I've been fightin
For survival
Since that poverty hit

I'm screamin Leemi
I just call ya mom
But you ain't get to see me
Said you cool
I just hope one day
You see me on the tv
I cried tears
When I wrote this verse
I know that you believe me
Tryna catch a flight
So one day you see me
Like in 3D
Remember Daddy taught you
1, 2, 3
Just count to 3, you'll see me
But ion do no magic
Hardly ever been that type of genie
If I could flip the script
You wouldn't see me
You'd be right here wit me
Be right by my side
My ride or die
I know you down to ride
And we could be so fly
Just you and I
We different type of guys
We can control our minds
And read the signs
Soarin' thru the sky
I mean my dad had taught me
Life is hard
It's harder when you're blind
When ya mom had told me
That you leaving
I tried to stop the time
But I can't slow it down
I'm not no God
I'm far from the divine
I be on my knees
My forehead touch
The ground and not the sky
You see I'm only human
Honest Abe
I've never told a lie
I seen my niggas cross me
I just pray
Dey don't think that I'm blind
I think my time is up
I just don't see me
Livin much more life
Havin' visions
Of my body
Being slain by homicide
If I could get so deep
I'd tell you
That I once tried suicide
Not once but maybe twice
Not twice but maybe thrice
But I'd tell you every time
I looked my son into his eyes
Had told myself I'm stronger
Need to be here for the ride
Fans, dey told me
Keep it real
I said
Just listen
Don't reply
You see look
This ones
From the heart
You see my hearts
On the divide
