“I haven’t been on earth long enough to know everything or have accomplished everything... but I’ve grown enough to know I have made progression from where I started and that’s why in my eyes I am successful.”

God always been with me, when I was broke I was still blessed
Now I spend a check on everything we couldn’t afford to get
Shawty let me know she wasn’t proud of where she stay now
And even though she hurting she pushing, so ima stay proud
Momma keep on saying baby, you deserve better
But you know it ain’t no leaving ma we in this shit together
All credit to god, back when we were lost, he’s who led us
My struggle led to hustle, now I’m swimming in this cheddar
I was tired of holding weight, just tired of being broke
Just tired of feeling empty, just tired of losing hope
Tired of bitches saying they got me but know they don’t
But I never needed a soul, bitch I did this shit on ma own
Watching uncle try to speak to me, hand out just tryna reach for me
Heard he passed away peacefully, left us and took a piece from me
It kills me, that you won’t even be here to see the older me
Say my prayers at night, I know that you’re watching over me
Rewind 2009 in that funeral home while they crying
Auntie you wasn’t moving and then the room just grew silent
Wake up, come on, wake up, in any way I could emphasize it
You impacted more than just me, ain’t take long to recognize it
A child witnessing this pain, it’s hard to cope wit
Knocked me off guard but still had to keep my focus
I’m broken, but I somehow found the courage to stand
Make sure my family straight if this shit all goes as planned
Cause this shit is More Than Just Music
Only got one shot and I’ll be damned I blew it
Swear this shit is More Than Just Music
My life is all I got and I’ll be damned if I lose it
Cause this shit is More Than Just Music
Only got one shot and I’ll be damned I blew it
Swear this shit is More Than Just Music
My life is all I got and I’ll be damned if I lose it
Really came out the mud, from soaking clothes in the tub
And running throughout them slums, true definitions of crumbs
It make take a toll on your mental state
Pray fa change but don’t lose your faith
Eat the pain and you’ll elevate
Push for however long it takes
Now I made it through, just living life, and learning lessons
Rags to riches, bagging bitches, man this shit a blessing
2 thousand dollars and some crud on top of Smith & Wesson’s
I think of how far we really came after every session
I’m My Brother’s Keeper, through the rain, he know I got him
Cause he showed me that circumstances could never stop him
Ion want n***as around me who don’t want to prosper
Just keep yo distance, I learned that shit from my fuckin father
Mama sacrificed for real, I never understood
I had to grow and realize that she did the best that she could
Yeah, I’m broken but somehow found the courage to stand
Make sure my family straight if this shit all goes as planned
Cause this shit is More Than Just Music
Only got one shot and I’ll be damned I blew it
Swear this shit is More Than Just Music
My life is all I got and I’ll be damned if I lose it
Cause this shit is More Than Just Music
Only got one shot and I’ll be damned I blew it
Swear this shit is More Than Just Music
My life is all I got and I’ll be damned if I lose it
