Thank You

I couldn't have done it

Without my mother being told to have an abortion

And still chose to push me out her stomach

I couldn't have done it

Without God guiding my footsteps through the fires

And even then my blessings were abundant

I couldn't have done it

Without my manager, every other month loaning me a hundred

My dawgs that hit the Western Union that kept me funded

E-Cloudy and Rock Cannon

When I tried to shoot my way to the top like 2Pac

Standing in the elevator on some Bishop and Q shit

Just thinking 'bout it make me wanna twist up, it's too lit

Now it's champagne rain at midnight on New Year's

I don't care who appear through my rearview mirrors

Because it do sting, you backwards, that's for the blackbirds

When people's body language doesn't match with their exact words

But it's cool, 'cause I'm doing it

So major that your girl of your dreams

Want me to slide through and hit

Then I ghost her

I did some local shows with my name on the poster

Next time it'll be in lights, I'm getting closer

And I couldn't have done it

Without my mother being told to have an abortion

And still chose to push me out her stomach

I couldn't have done it

Without God guiding my footsteps through the fires

And even then my blessings were abundant

I couldn't have done it

Without White Mike looking out on studio time

A place to stay and kept me blunted

And I couldn't have done it without y'all listening

From down South Cali, New York, Utah, Michigan

To those who overseas

That would rather me blossom like flowers

Than to fall like the leaves from October trees

Y'all stuck around when I fought for my sanity through a scuffle

Thoughts of stickups and spraying who randomly move a muscle

Those were hiccups

The only cure was pure holy water on a Sunday

At church in the afternoon with Sarah Pastor Torre

But now I'm in a high rise, the TV plasma 4K

See how knowledge is key and each decision has a doorway

Thank you God for blessing me, I'm awesome

And those against me gotta pay on the day that it cost 'em

My childhood set across from killers and dealers with a sentence

I found the word in a lost slum

I couldn't have done it

Without my moms being told to have an abortion

And still chose to push me out her stomach

I couldn't have done it

Without God guiding my footsteps through the fires

And even then my blessings were abundant

I couldn't have done it without Bombay

SoulDaddy and Yosuf, A-Tone, Agor to keep it a hundred

I couldn't have done it

And I don't mean to sound redundant

But I for sure couldn't have done it without Kayana

If you wasn't the one for me then hopefully someday I may find her

I hope you know that I appreciate all you done for me

That's so real it kills the phrase, it's two sides to one story

Trust, believe I'ma pay you back, that's my word 'cause I'm doing it

Although we came from broken homes and foster housing

My clique floss, you browsing, these kicks cost a thousand

So fuck what you heard, this is that shit

My life was a bitch, blowing kisses at clits

I was only ten when I opened my third eye

Heard myself say, "The sky's is the limit," where birds fly

To get to where I'm at now

I had to fall, get kicked when I'm

Down to get my feet back on flat tile

That's why it's over

You **** know, rather drunk or sober

I'm colder than the blood hitting in the cobra

And I couldn't have done it

Without my moms being told to have an abortion

And still chose to push me out her stomach

I couldn't have done it

Without God guiding my footsteps through the fires

And even then my blessings were abundant

I couldn't have done it

Without my **** Paige

Lydia, Jasmine, JB Group

Lawrence and 12th

Mama Shirley, Raymond Powers, all my peoples

Nick Speed, yeah

My ****

Everybody that rock with me

Couldn't have done it

Now I'm here, baby
