Down Fall

I remember when you would
Pray on my, downfall
And now that I've got my wings
I am no longer off balanced at all
Yeah

I was born in a house, with no silver spoon
Remember watching, back to the future on the TV in my living room
Use the knobs to turn the channel
My tooth loose thought it was pain I couldn't handle
Couple loose screws, moms and pops fighting in front of me
Learned rage at a young age, maturity helped tame the beast
Now it's a change of scene, sleeping on the floors of a church
Where that, where that, where that pain reemerged
Went from Jersey to the Bronx, own a house on Summit Ave
I was young so I'm thinkin' we back to getting that cash
My cousin was schizophrenic, said he was going to kill my moms
I put her on ASAP, next day we were gone
Now it's back to, different shelters that I hated so much
Brooklyn, Bronx, to Harlem
That's where they showed the most love, in 96 we moved to Taft, and
That's been home ever since, memories of
11G influence me to write this, write this

Uh
Hard times, where I couldn't sleep
Downfall, insecurities had me feeling weak
All this pain, gave me strength to see, see, see
And now all I see, see, see
Hard times where I couldn't sleep
Downfall, insecurities, all this pain gave me strength to see, see, see
Open my eyes, and now I see, see, see, see, see

I remember when you would
Pray on my, downfall
And now that I've got my wings
I am no longer off balanced at all
Yeah

I brought the house, I was born in
My mama was born in and her mama was born in
Thats generations, of pouring, equity in a cup
I ain't get here by luck
Path written already, so if it's up than it's stuck
I remember them corny jokes about the clothes I would wear
Had a, cyst on my head that I wish wasn't there
Tough skin, plus I could fight, so I ain't really care
Turn my weakness into strengths and shown growth through the years
Lost my brother at the age of nine he was eleven RIP Gary
Wish he was here with me right now to race in these nine-elevens
Lost my mom at forty-four I was just twenty-seven Momma Love
Turned my trials and tribulations into my greatest weapons
I got some angels riding with me, who wouldn't give you a second
Praying on my downfall, is just the least of my worries
I'ma get to where I'm going fast, quick, in hurry
Let my influence leave a stain like you was eating some
Curry

I remember when you would
Pray on my, downfall
And now that I've got my wings
I am no longer off balanced at all
Yeah

Pray and pray on my downfall
Pray and Pray on my downfall
On my, my, my
On my, my, my
Downfall
