Lord, have mercy, momma done raised a real thug
Me and my daddy cool but he showed me tough love
Fifteen, I was asked out gettin' grown
By this time my old man had just moved on

Momma couldn't drive so she didn't have a car
And I could still see my T lady walkin' far
Sweat on her face, purse and a grocery bag
Me and my sister [bad word] that's all we ever had

Stuck my chest out became the man of the house
Now I'm the bread winner, go get it at any cost
Flippin' burgers, washing cars and cutting yards
I graduated to cooking soft and selling hard

Highschool is over with I'm on a path
To mo hoes mo dough and a new slab
I'ma B.hard headed so fly
But I'ma gangsta and like this till I die

Pressure bust a pipe kept it real and stayed at it
Them old snitch niggas know the game and still ratted
I'm at the weed house wit 20 bags and 3 for ten
I had a closed mind, I wasn't listening back then

Stuck in one spot trying to learn to manage money [bad word] them air jordens, the sky ain't forever sunny
Keep a full clip jackers might wanna visit
I'ma chasin' down the same meal ticket
