intro
When I was a kid, never had a friend to call
Always smokin' weed, I would never get involved
Hella enemies tryna catch me in the halls
Hide out with my lunch and a Sharpie in a stall
When I was a kid, all I wanted was to bawl
Make a million bucks, start a riot in the mall
Never joined a gang, but I been around 'em all
Throwin' up a sign to see the shadows on the wall
verse
I got scores to settle, man, this is more than medals
Keep the trophies and the money, I want war, it's special
They support because I'm winnin', but before they heckle
It's funny how your enemies get so forgetful
And it's your fault I'm so famous
Y'all created a monster, y'all were doctors, you just botched the operation
I'm rich now, and that's on you
Let me burn another bridge down, I got few
verse
I've been broke, got arrested, and I've been homeless, pathetic
I still own a liquor store for beer they gave me on credit
Things were not fun, girl cut her wrist, that was a lot of blood
Cops saw the cuts, I was caught up in some locked cuffs
verse
The way I grew up, I ain't have a dad
Livin' in a trailer, that's the only thing we had
Chip on my shoulder, fist clenched, I was mad
Now I'm lookin' back, they wanna take what I had
Where were you when I needed a hand for help?
I was little, couldn't take care of myself
Did you care about my feelings or my health?
I hope to never see you, got a place down in hell
verse
Why do we go through the things that we go through?
Why do we go through the things that we go through?
Phone keep ringin', I don't answer no more
Got money in the bank and a man at the door
Make one wrong move, you'll be layin' on the floor
bridge
To everyone who said I'd never make it
I just wanna tell you I'm no longer in the basement
I appreciate you doubting me, the hate you thought would break me
Was the greatest, I'm so thankful that I found a way to make it motivation
Dear everyone who said I'd never make it
I'ma make you eat your words while you layin' on the pavement
Flyer than a bird, everything I see is for the takin'
I'ma make it work, I'ma show you I ain't takin' anything unless it's first
