Achilles Heel Freestyle

I got past mistakes I'm hoping don't see the light
If karmas a bitch then she might be my wife
From young days I always been someone you might not like
I learned if they ain't family then they ain't there for life
15 and unruly the family was there
Cried in my brothers lap he strong he only shed a tear
Only thing he said is it's only up from here
Our parents didn't raise children who live in fear
Mom and 3 sisters they the cheetah girls
Just me, my Dad, my bro living in a cheetah world
Gotta give him thanks he showed us how to treat a girl
Mom said dream like your talents keep them out of this world
Had to learn to be patient, accidental lessons
Cuz life gave me l's now Its a basket of lemons
Torn Achilles twice got my mind state stressing
Days watch others shine and receive my blessings
But what's yours can't be taken away when it's destined
Understand a strong mind is your strongest weapon
I could never be average, I'm always the exception
If you weren't there for the come up then we are not we bredren
That's why when you see me I'm with the same bros
Plus I got issues with trust, trust it still shows
Walking on Achilles Heels still I stand on ten toes
Came from the concrete no pun intended but I rose
I will never slow down don't understand complacence
If life is a bitch she's been testing my patience
The work I put in, greatness should be the norm
Faced stormy waters still remain calm in the storm
Achilles heels Olympic cycles 4 years apart
They thought it was the end I always knew it was the start
Never been one to fit in I wasn't born to play a part
There's so much work in my art of course they're works of art
Of course the finish line feels better than the start
Put pain in my raps so y'all know it's from the heart
Hope she knows I think about her even when we're apart
Hope she knows she's beautiful but I love her cuz she's smart
(Yeah)
So another year of growth another year to bless up
I'm standing with my brothers realizing that we already next up
We taking what we want you man's can have what's left yuh
Feeling like the ones that came to the party dressed up
Cuz we tryna be better than the standards that they set
And if they don't think we can we laugh and say bet
Type of dudes to go and steal the answers to the test
Ain't caring if they say no cuz all we hear is yes
Life is for the taking and we taking our sweet time
Meditate and pray cuz all we want is peace of mind
Only time you see us if you see us in the grind
Breaking all the barriers and crossing all the lines
Everything we wanted is now everything we got
The only view that we crave is the one from the top
Pray we never flop, pray the grind don't stop
Pray we catch our blessings same way I catch the drop
And we understand the pain is sometimes how life goes
And every experience leads to some growth
Pray we keep it real throughs the highs and lows
We payback the people in our life that we owe
Then when all is said we really do more than we said
Make sure our people's are good and our families are fed
