[00:28.02]I remember wakin’ up, bein’ broke but still it wasn’t breakin’ us
[00:34.31]I remember why I broke the rules, cause I ain’t really have nobody to look up to
[00:36.74]
[00:40.63]I remember cuttin’ class, bein’ bad, cause I ain’t have what them other kids had
[00:47.49]I remember wishin’ that I knew my dad, then I remember wishin’ I could get him back
[00:50.13]
[00:54.87]For every night that he told me he was comin’ and he didn’t, for every single
[00:59.15]Dollar that my mama ‘nem was missin’
[01:02.24]For every thing I wanted and was told I couldn’t get it, and that I had to face it
[01:06.91]That my daddy was addicted (damn)
[01:09.25]That’s right it wasn’t easy growin’ up, mama was exposin’ us to life as she knew
[01:14.00]It
[01:15.48]So we all went through it, I remember bein’ down and out, sleepin, on my homie’s
[01:20.46]Couch
[01:21.48]In & outta trouble ever since my mama put me out
[01:24.44]Damn it’s gettin real, Damn it’s gettin real
[01:26.38]Didn’t graduate, I’m thinkin damn I gotta deal
[01:28.69]
[01:31.02]So I hit da block, sellin rocks just to eat a meal
[01:34.65]So I grabbed da Glock, kept it cocked.Peace is STILL
[01:37.86]In da back of da tracks, my nigga’s stayed wit da packs
[01:41.51]And if a nigga was schemin’, my brotha stayed with tha gat
[01:45.15]Yea, yea we stayed in da trap, yea everyday in da trap
[01:48.35]These ho’s was chasin’ da cheese, so we would stay wit da rat’s
[01:51.93]And we was ridin down, dippin low, I stayed in da back
[01:55.58]In the X5 stuntin, we ain’t know how to act
[01:58.24]Spendin’ money like it’s nothin, cuz we gone get it back
[02:00.42]
[02:02.49]17 never thought that I’d be gettin dem racks, had a dream but I said I wasn’t fuckin’
[02:08.92]Wit that
[02:10.04]Mel told me I would make it, I ain’t fuckin wit that. but he told me that it wouldn’t
[02:15.38]Hurt to give it a try
[02:17.15]Hardest thing out in New Orleans never see 25
[02:19.83]Right then I woke up, broke out, told my nigga’s had to roll out, moved to the A
[02:22.54]
[02:24.93]And got motivated, that inspiration don’t run out
[02:27.18]Heard my brother got gunned down and it hurt me to my heart, So I kept grindin’,
[02:29.82]
[02:32.45]I kept pushin’, he told me to go far
[02:34.55]So I can’t stop at no crib, can’t stop at no car, Gotta. Keep. Goin. Like there ain’t
[02:37.62]

[02:41.52]So I’m goin hard everyday, til I got nothin’ to say, nothin’ can stand in my way,
[02:45.51]I gotta stay, to show my nigga’s a different way (waaayyy)
