But when she look into my eyes there's a feeling I get

I choke up it takes me back I wasn't hardly ten

Was just a kid in my room with pint up aggression

Had nowhere to take it out so started reliving the mistakes that my mother made

Shit she was still young too

Can I really blame you with the shit that you been through

My father caught up in the system and was doing time

My single mother struggling and was working nine to nine

So let me take you to a time I didn't know myself

I never thought I would be sharing this with all of you

But when you from a broken home and that shit surrounds you maybe you'd see the Situation I was going through

The only thing I know for sure is I'm not looking back

Never forgotten where I'm from but it's just not that

I'm obligated as a father now to run shit

I know I made some mistakes but shit who hasn't

You can't break me down

But when she look into my eyes there's a feeling I get

I choke up it takes me back I was in Arlington

Was just a kid in my room with pint up aggression

Had nowhere to take it out so I just kept writing

Never intended on the situation that you're in

But I promise you will never live the way I did

I won't accept the answers I felt like I'd never get

I'll give you everything in life I can possibly give

So many years passed by since I left home flat broke

I didn't have a pot to piss in and I lost all hope

The only thing I know for sure is I'm not looking back

Never forgotten where I'm from but it's just not that

The only thing I know for sure is I'm not looking back

Never forgotten where I'm from but it's just not that

I hope this will make you understand

But when she look into my eyes there's a feeling I get

I choke up it takes me back I was in Arlington

Was just a kid in my room with pint up aggression

Had nowhere to take it out so I just kept writing

I choke up it takes me back

So I just kept writing

I had nowhere to take it out so I just kept writing

I hope this will make you understand
