Words cut deep like a sword when I speak, don't talk, we tryna teach 'em Something that these teachers couldn't teach us Growin' up on welfare, dad don't care, he said he leavin' Barely holdin' on, was at my weakest Still I kept on steppin' to the plate, got my bread up for the sake of the fam Regardless of whatever place I was in Regardless of the pain and shame that I bear I'ma make sure that my kids don't have to go through all the same shit we did Swear I was made for this, to reap rewards, I had to take a risk Ain't work this hard in my life, man, I'm tryna make it stick My baby sister cryin' 'cause this life no way to live So it's on me to lead and show her one day she can make it big I stay persistent, tryna move the nation I got faith that one day I can buy a coupe that's spacious Make no mistake, that's what it's gonna take for you to make it Believe with everything inside you till you arrive at your destination (Nate G) So where we at? We been runnin' many laps See, all my brothers and sisters ain't gettin' money to relax We steady workin', them others think it's funny how we act But we ain't playin', it's that shit [?] I wake up early, bruzzy, I can't spend hours on my back Just sleepin' in, 'cause if my nan was here, I'd know I'd cop a slap I kept on learnin' on how to put my feelings into rap Now we burnin' up the stage, I put that joint up to the match And get to swervin', see, I know you been searchin' for this Letras de cancionesThey ask me "You sure that's the one?" I say "I'm certain it is" Was gettin' dark and had to open up the curtains a bit Stood from afar and watched the game and seen how dirty it gets Listen to God and every word that he says Brah, whether I'm at my worst or my best, I know my verse gon' be fresh Prayin' for mob 'cause all the birds at the nest said it could never be done But we ain't heard what you said, now we ain't heard what you said (Yo, yo) Easier said than done, but either get it done Or believe their assumption that you could never amount to something bigger But think that way, you fall for the lie Fear of missin' got you slippin', now you fallin' behind Don't get it twisted, 'cause this decision's yours to decide Be a victim to your pride or push it all the side We keep it pushin', 'cause ain't no pushin' pause or rewind In this life you got one shot and I ain't forfeitin' mine Instead I shoot and swish, hear my voice, you best get used to this They either deaf or my message on some elusive shit Nevertheless, I step on records like I'm Ludacris Or DMX, tell 'em "Get out the way" 'fore I lose my shit Quit all that talk and foolish towards me and come correctly Speak and walk like a Lord, that's 'cause God sent me And like Jesus, I won't leave until they bury me Read 'em like telepathy, I see the lies and treachery They use to keep us boxed in, so I don't care how much they're offerin' Money don't amount to what we got to give Lost hope from all the empty promises, my tolerance For this nonsense is nil, brother, I keep it real Can't make the same mistakes my father did, I'm tryna heal Pray to God, hope he helps me find the will, but I'm strugglin' still [?] This is revision for regrowth Victory over all obstacles The impossible being made possible Never scared, well prepared, because the once unaware are now knowledgeable Lookin' at my life through a different perspective when shit gets hectic 'Cause that's the only way to deal with this aggression that's been Pent up and generationally festerin' Each problem that I face, I take as lessons As I carve away the pain to better see the shape of ways I make have truly blessed us I'm reflectin' with this pen relentless And rejectin' seeds the enemy attempts to sow 'Cause if it don't benefit my growth, why would I tend to it? I'm tryna see my people flourish Hope each word I speak is nourishment Surpassin' the surface, I see the beauty in the ugliness And the rain that cometh is something we should all learn to grow from I know my roots, I hear my old people tellin' me to go long So each word in this song was given No rise within a system that's wrong And they wonder why we never got along with 'em 'Cause we could never conform and change who we were born to be Replacin' the trauma and pain with peace In order to break us free from chains that still enslave us mentally The day we realise our greatness and be all that we were meant to be Is a day I pray we get to see Till then we let the record speak From Letras Mania
