Came Up
They asked me how I came up
Cause I stayed down
Why would I change up?
Them people know my name now
It's crazy how I got the fame
My life so dangerous
I'ma always stay the same
Even when they changin' up
They asked me how I came up
Cause I stayed down
Why would I change up?
Them people know my name now
It's crazy how I got the fame
My life so dangerous
I'ma always stay the same
Even when they changin' up
I ain't doin' that again
I wasn't reachin' for the politics
I was thuggin' in the trenches
Tryna make it out of this poverty
Yelling gang to the enemy
Same time reaching where the choppa at
And I can't show no bitch no feelings
Cause when I do it's like they seem to don't know how to act
I made it out, took me some time, my mama proud of that
Locked in the cell, I did that time, they must forgot the fact
I needed help but they didn't help me, oh they need me back
And they can't take it back
There was times I prayed for another life
Asking my mama why we broke and why we ain't rich?
40 in my pocket trying to hit a lick
Wish I had them shoes like that other kid
I ain't finish school but my brother did
Now I'm on I can pay all of my brother's rent
They put their head up when they be talking to me
Respect me like a Don I'm the president
They asked me how I came up
Cause I stayed down
Why would I change up?
Them people know my name now
It's crazy how I got the fame
My life so dangerous
I'ma always stay the same
Even when they changin' up
448 in the kitchen, I'm goin' get it
Sick of reminiscing, got dirt all over my britches
I was heart broke, patnas in prison, got a conviction
On another note got patnas who stealing, I won't forgive 'em
I told my grandma to pray for me (pray for me)
God why my patnas wanna take from me (wanna take from me)
Tryna put a million in the safe nigga
Now goin' to opps it ain't safe for 'em
Would you believe the things I seen like
On the block I lost my soul
All the nights I couldn't control
The fact that I lost without no hope
I was praying for the better (praying for the better)
Mama told me never say never
But I ain't never have a thing
So now it's 'part of my lecture when I speak up
Got on my grind, went copped that whip then put my feet up
Told me she love me then she left, no I don't need her
Brand new AP feel like a icebox, I'm a freezer
I'm like a preacher
They asked me how I came up
Cause I stayed down
Why would I change up?
Them people know my name now
It's crazy how I got the fame
My life so dangerous
I'ma always stay the same
Even when they changin' up
They asked me how I came up
Cause I stayed down
Why would I change up?
Them people know my name now
It's crazy how I got the fame
My life so dangerous
I'ma always stay the same
Even when they changin' up
Cause I stayed down
Why would I change up?
Them people know my name now
It's crazy how I got the fame
My life so dangerous
I'ma always stay the same
Even when they changin' up
They asked me how I came up
Cause I stayed down
Why would I change up?
Them people know my name now
It's crazy how I got the fame
My life so dangerous
I'ma always stay the same
