Malachi J Wilson - Along The Way Lyrics

Born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky
I really made it out, should I feel blessed or lucky
I was running around with dogs as a little puppy
I had them subwoofers hitting like, like
But back to the streets, where it's really hard to eat
When it's raining over you
But you really can't go to sleep
I been watching, I done, peeped
People walking pockets deep
They don't wanna help
Promise this lifestyle ain't for the weak
502, that's my gang, I promise I'm here to stay You mess with me, death penalty, we'll put the A to the K
We'll get your ass out the way, and make you stay in your place
Where I'm from, where I'm from, we don't care about the race
You see how right there my temperature just rose
I gotta calm all that down and remember I'm
The one chose Drive around the city night after night as I'm doing shows
No disrespect, but I'll never chase another ho, uh
Yeah, I gotta keep up the pace Gotta keep my mind focused, can't even bite out of bait
While you out partying, I'm steadily lifting the weights
That's why I'm right here, telling you I'm one of the greats
Ayy man, I don't play man, open the gates Say man, I don't date man, that's none of my traits
I'm real, you fake, man, get out of my face I'm on real thin ice, but I love me some skates
Got success down the line, yeah Along the way, got the fame, got the shine, yeah
Along the way, been on my grind, yeah Along the way, promise I'ma get signed, yeah
Along the way, told you time after time, yeah Along the way, if it's mine, then it's mine, yeah
Along the way, got to eight, got to nine, yeah Along the way, promise I'ma get everything
Along the way, uh, yeah Along the way, promise I'ma get everything
Along the way, yeah, uh Along the way, promise I'ma get everything
Along the way, got to eight, got to nine, yeah Along the way, yeah, been on my grind, yeah
Along the way, told you time after time, yeah Along the way, if it's mine, then it's mine, yeah
Along the way, uh, ayy I gotta do it for my city
Gotta do it for my future wife, I picked them really pretty
Gotta do it when I'm young, gotta do it when I'm fifty
Gotta do it when I can't, gotta do it when I'm busy
Gotta do it when I don't, gotta do it when it's iffy
Gotta do it when I'm sick, even when I'm feeling shitty
Gotta do it out the Blue even when it's really chilly
Gotta do it for Larry, gotta do it for Milly
Gotta do it for a dollar, gotta do it for a penny
Gotta do it for all my fans, all my fans that really miss me
Gotta do it for anne, gotta do it for a jimmy
Gotta do it for a ron, gotta do it for a christy
Gotta do it for my mom, gotta do it for a ritchie
Gotta do it for my babies, even if they don't kiss me
Gotta do it for myself, even when I'm feeling guilty
Gotta do it for the world, even if it's Mississippi
Got success down the line, yeah
Along the way, got the fame, got the shine, yeah
Along the way, been on my grind, yeah
Along the way, promise I'ma get signed, yeah
Along the way, told you time after time, yeah
Along the way, if it's mine, then it's mine, yeah
Along the way, got the eight, got the nine, yeah
Along the way, promise I'ma get everything
