I done learned so many lessons f*ckin' rushin' through my life
Man, that shit ain't never brought a nigga nothin
But I knew when I was five that my soul was alive
And my daddy couldn't even tell me nothin
Now don't get me wrong, man, my daddy, he a strong man
And he taught me everything I know
But now I'm a grown man, yeah, I'm my own man
It's time to let these motherf*ckers know
I was walkin' to the studio with Lil' Greg and them
Yeah, when Q Money flat top was gold
Niggas used to slap box and go
From chapwop in the cold
Reminiscing make a nigga feel old
That's why I try and let it all go
Things I ain't even wanna know
It happen fast, but it processed slow
Funny how the present is the past
And the future's your very next act
Niggas better move military, be tact
Your mind is a weapon, nigga, gotta bring that
Don't forget your soul, you gon' have to dub back
When I was f*cked up, man, I had to hit that
Whether it was some buns or some bud or some yak
Smoke a whole pack in that off-white lack
Some niggas get lost, don't never come back
Some niggas get lost, don't never come back
Never come back
Brave-hearted nigga, I believe in a change
Never lookin' back, I exceed in my lane
Never takin' back when I mean what I say
I can't take it back to when it was how it was
Life keep goin', now you runnin' for the bus
I can't get enough of just f*ckin' wakin' up
I don't need much, just enough to f*ck em' up
Things that I seen, that's enough to toughen up
Tryna elevate to the next level up
But it take more than you think
Your people won't always support everything
So you just gotta be sure of your dreams
But for me, this shit way more than a dream
So I move according to me
Yeah, it's like church when I record on the beat
I can feel the Lord reassure everything
And I'm still not perfect
Keep my heart open even though it's still hurtin
Cause a nigga livin' for a real deal purpose
I'ma keep goin' till the bitch stop workin
Niggas thought I quit, but they can't be certain
F*ck what niggas think, man, they just ain't worth it
Niggas ain't deep, man, they think on the surface
I can kill a nigga just one of these verses
