Through dark times still see the light
Rough times i see the spite
n#gg#s ain’t want sh#t to do with me, friendships they would ignite
They envious but i did what’s right, perspectives had to view the sites
Simplicity is my entity, see clearly now, vision in the night
Protect myself always had to fight, stronger now can’t you see the rise
Had times lookin for a way out, my life accompanied by a knife
Smoke so much never see me cry, get so high, tell my n#gg#s hi
Rest east to my fallen soldiers, i couldn’t even say my goodbyes
Chase a bag till you outta time, never stop cause you gotta grind
Never content with my lifestyle, always want more, money on my mind
Speeding tickets gotta pay the price, lawyer fees payin for my life
Think you got sh#t under control, then ya turn ’round, take you by surprise
Takin trips hours on a drive, dozin off very sleepy eyed
God knows in my journeys how many times i shoulda died
Too extroverted to be confined, too introverted to speak my mind
But this music is my journal and the audience here for the ride
One of those ones again…
There was hard times and dire times, way before the money arrived
Taught myself how to switch gears, man this money really taught me how to drive
Started working at the age of five put in work, had to really grind
Other kids scored touchdowns, i touched down ready to get mine
Growing up i was overlooked but i stayed quiet like that was fine
Always bending backwards for other people, got no spine
Dreamed of getting to the top, had to drop the dead weight for a fast climb
Never scared of a incline, nobody stopping my time
Now i’m killer on the mic, don’t have to run jewels to show my shine
Working every day for the last 5 years, haven’t reached my prime
Nobody breaking my pride
Try to knock me down, i still rise
Man all these shooters all around me, man it’s looking like i got mob ties
Everything that’s ever happened, i replay it in my mind
Really thought they got the best of me, but they never faced any of my kind
Try to double cross, and steal from me
Didn’t know there’s a fine line
Between love and hate, my heart can hate, but i muscled pain like the turpentine
Take a look inside of my eyes
Surrounded by a bunch blank minds
Roll it up and i spark the gas, now i’m gettin blown like a land mine
Car crashed, seen my life flashed, but i walked away with a paid fine
Death called about a couples times, but my finger always hitting decline
I’m usaan in this race of life, running till i hit the finish line
I’ve toughen up when i’m broke and stuck, plotting paydirt like goldmines
Blueprints to get the city paid, ima step ahead like a mastermind
All power come from winds of change, i’m working hard like a turbine
In a couple years, you’ll see my face, i’m hoping that it’ll be on primetime
That’s in the air, i’m flying fast, but i’m praying that i never fly blind
Everybody gon see mine, when i come back with a hand of dimes
I should’ve studied in alchemy
Turning black ink into gold rhymes
