In the backpack
I used to carry the pounds
Had a flashback
Of people shooting them rounds
Sayin' slatt slatt
Yeah you outta bounds
I made a better way for me and mine
All it took was time
In the backpack
I used to carry the pounds
Had a flashback
Of people shooting them rounds
Sayin' slatt slatt
Yeah you outta bounds
I made a better way for me and mine
All it took was time
All it took was just a little time and effort
I had to cut some people off yeah callin that severed
Me and my mother, yeah we tethered together
Knew my homie lied to me, yeah he turned white as Edward
All these people out here tryna tell me what to do
You can't judge me nah, if you ain't walk in my shoes
I ain't worry bout the credit I just paid all my dues
Word to Nipsey Hussle now I'm venting in the booth
Got this beam on your head, got you in my site
Wanna take a chance with me, go 'head roll ya dice
Eat my cake and have it too, go 'head take a slice
Made a better life Tony Tiger earn my stripes
In the backpack
I used to carry the pounds
Had a flashback
Of people shooting them rounds
Sayin' slatt slatt
Yeah you outta bounds
I made a better way for me and mine
All it took was time
In the backpack
I used to carry the pounds
Had a flashback
Of people shooting them rounds
Sayin' slatt slatt
Yeah you outta bounds
I made a better way for me and mine
All it took was time
Get up and get it every day
Don't care about what they say
Pull up to the stop right of way
Ballin' on em Rudy gay
How these people gonna say n
Nobody helped them, they was broke
Then they make it say "I ain't f*ckin wit nobody broke"
Damn, that don't make any since
Woulda bought the chain
But I had to pay the rent
Everybody clout chasing
Just for what? Fake friends
Think imma decent nigga
But I guess it depends
What I mean, I've done a lot of wrong
And I got a dream, but I know I belong
Take it to extreme, yea imma stand strong
Signing off for now, sincerely Bubbadon
