I Knew

Ever been in such a space Either path can be your play So much promise so much homage To those who paved the way All this pressure do the same How will what I say make change Blessed a gift and a curse Saw this vision in my brain Then I knew Yeah uh yeah Then I knew Yeah uh yeah Memory cursed with moving caine Homies lost to the game Some got took some got hooked Some got saved Some got booked This that real life I try to talk and hold a mic Hope the words hit you right Every verse I take a flight New Years Eve close with lessons Here writing my confessions Know this year gone be my year Tip and toast for all them blessings Sip alone need the space Can't be slipping in this race Got my business plans together Know my time won't be forever Cause I knew See them leaves like you do Rap is how I made it through Black as night from me to you Stand chill like hustlers do On that side walk Only fiends want talk Sip my henny fore some spill Coat with milk to the ease the chill Stacking dubs chasing mills Saw the writing on the wall This too small I want it all What it take for me to ball Make the call and switch lanes Leave the game for bigger things Pray I make it through the change Ever been in such a space Either path can be your play So much promise so much homage To those who paved the way All this pressure do the same How will what I say make change Blessed a gift and a curse Saw this vision in my brain Then I knew Yeah uh yeah Then I knew Yeah uh yeah I slip and slide through this life With ups and downs for a price Made my first hundred stacks Moving weight through the trap From FLA to current day So much growth to where I'm at People scowl I just smile Ain't no sense in chasing that Keep it real too much to gain Won't let that simple in my brain This big business this real talk You can see it in my walk Just yesterday gave son my praise Told him love the way he raised Looked in his eyes and touched his soul That's what's missing now a days Never claimed to be a rapper That's a skill I can't chase after From the hood so when I speak It's from a space of pain and laughter Homey Slick heard my shit And said my story what people after How you move how you rose Made mistakes and paths you chose Be transparent stay coherent Watch the lives you touch and capture If your books willing to open this will be your life new chapter Every verse a gift and curse Tell the truth sometimes it hurts Learned thru pain there's a gain If you let go that's when you grow Ever been in such a space Either path can be your play So much promise so much homage To those who paved the way All this pressure do the same How will what I say make change Blessed a gift and a curse Saw this vision in my brain Then I knew Yeah uh yeah Then I knew Yeah uh yeah
