[00:49.92]I f**kin' hate it anyway
[00:51.75]Long ago way back in the day in a place called West Deer Park
[00:54.43]I was like 5 sit in my mama lap while she would drive
[00:56.61]Police would knock on the door I would hide
[00:58.20]Then they would talk to me and I would lie
[00:59.86]Hopin' I don't die on this side of a 45
[01:03.10]Then they would handcuff my mama and take her away
[01:04.67]Over done on the driveway
[01:05.86]Fast forward a couple of years and I'm bumpin' that Sade
[01:08.08]Fast forward a couple of more and I'm bumpin' that my way

[02:27.92]I remember my life long ago in my adolescence
[02:30.29]I could feel the presence in my residence
[02:32.08]Hesitant even thought it was evident
[02:33.82]I should get the f**k
[02:35.13]I know something is wrong
[02:37.20]Yeah I know something is wrong
[02:39.05]Feel like my mind gone
[02:40.37]I know I play along I might drown in this song
[02:42.91]Huh I'm so focused huh I know you know this
[02:45.49]Uh when I make a move and feel like no one notice
[02:48.31]Uh when I quit my job uh I f**kin' noticed
[02:50.79]Shot made me been unnoticed huh but maybe not
[02:53.39]Feel like this minimum wage is contagious
[02:55.12]So outrageous my age is on my mind
[02:57.07]Walking to work and I go blind
[02:58.75]Sippin' on that Koolaid gettin' big wig money that soon pay
[03:01.24]Look around and see people with no class like snow on a shcool day
[03:04.22]Y'all can't do what I do do what I do
[03:07.03]Starin' out this window like like Erykah Badu
[03:09.50]Livin' life how I do is crazy
[03:10.94]This sh*t never amaze me
[03:12.26]But I still let it phase me and I don't know why
[03:14.04]All I know is my mind racing
[03:16.19]A million miles a minute the second I'm in it yeah I be pacing
[03:18.56]B**ch I'm back again
[03:19.70]Been here since way back when now let that sh*t begin
[03:23.03]This album 2 but this song was written before the first
[03:25.60]My mind racing I'm sick of pacing I feel the thirst
[03:28.34]Of those around me that down me and pray on my demise
[03:31.07]But it only makes it that much better when I rise
[03:33.63]This for the people that been through it and couldn't do it
[03:35.74]Had a vision but blew it while haters screaming I knew it
[03:38.33]This is real so real
[03:40.07]The type of sh*t that make you feel like you gotta kill
[03:42.66]Most of these people will never hit fruition
[03:44.62]Paying tuition when they should've just listened their intuition
[03:47.58]Now they wishing they was switching up their lifestyle
[03:49.98]All alone with no one to dial
[03:51.99]I'm just a man I got problems understand
[03:54.22]This is all I ever wanted yes I do it for the fans
[03:56.48]And I ain't perfect
[03:57.53]I've questioned if this life was even worth it
[03:59.58]Cause all the people care about is what lies on the surface
[04:01.81]And my purpose is to do it like it ain't never been done
[04:04.91]Always keep it real and remember where I'm from now
[04:07.60]This album 2 but this song was written before the first
[04:10.18]My mind racing I'm sick of pacing I feel the thirst
[04:12.94]Of those around me that down me and pray on my demise
[04:15.90]But it only makes it that much better when I rise
