A Gift
My momma told me life is a gift
Pops explained it as a warzone
I guess I found out thru my trips
What I'm writin on these scripts
Maybe one day get ya boy known
Cuz I ain't dummin down shit, on my life this a gift
Life is what u make it, I believe
Got a lil smarter from these streets
Than the average beast, no leash so I took a lil practice
Made the bullet hit the target thru this rap shit
I had to stumble thru my walkin, but always made way thats regardless
Workin on my aim like a marksman
I'm in the shootin range aimin for the sky
Thru hard days still thank God I'm
Alive
There's a lot that didn't wake up, a woman that couldn't put on her make up
Drop her kids off to school and get that paystub
Death is all that's promised, at least that's what the world say
The place I grew up had my future lookin real vague
Cuz ain't nobody gna make it out here
Forget that we gon take w out fear
This the time so the peddles to the ground see beneath us movin quick
I can here my mommas voice n the midst
My momma told me life is a gift
Pops explained it as a warzone
I guess I found out thru my trips
What I'm writin on these scripts
Maybe one day get ya boy known
Cuz I ain't dummin down shit, on my life this a gift
I been to hell and back, but not like God with the keys
So believe I still fight these demons
A hethen who found his soul, tangled n the cold
Til I picked it back up looked a minute then consoled it
I may not be the chosen, I know we are kings tho
I kno that the highs ain't real if you ain't seen low
Threatin the team? No, family is primo
Not even all the same blood you'll end up on the piso listo,
Yup, cuz thru this life ain't no cheat codes
Only once chance then it's 0 they don't hear me tho
Really don't want to at least, but I soaked game
Cuz when the hood you grew up in could turn to a cage
You fight ya way out, grind, find a way thru
Even when the people that you love say they hate you
Listen My father said life was war, fight it with ya fist
But I could hear my mothers voice in the midst
Every struggle I made it thru
Made me stronger to fight
My momma told me life is a gift
Pops explained it as a warzone
I guess I found out thru my trips
What I'm writin on these scripts
Maybe one day get ya boy known
Cuz I ain't dummin down shit, on my life this a gift
Pops explained it as a warzone
I guess I found out thru my trips
What I'm writin on these scripts
Maybe one day get ya boy known
Cuz I ain't dummin down shit, on my life this a gift
