Lyrics

I remember when we was wishing for them better days
Locked up at a young age, I was fienin’ for them dinner treys
Promised when I got out my mind was gon’ be on better things
Promised my people I was gon’ be the one to make a way
On my own, I never knew the type of love I gave to you
Fake a smile so they don’t know the type of pain I’m going through
Head in my hands, prayin’ God what am I gonna do?
Mama said don’t listen to the people that make fun of you
Philippians said I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me
I do it for my cousins and my uncles, hope they Rest In Peace
My shorty has a part of me, my family got the rest of me
They inspired this song, so I’ma be the best that I can be
Going through it all, I swear I’m too young to be stressing out
My name in they mouth, but they don’t know what the fuck they talkin’ ’bout
My brothers inna trap, but I told ’em I’ll take a different route
Make my money the right way, I’ma get us out without a doubt
Can’t wait to hear my name in the crowds, it’s a scary thought
Step up on that stage, feel my stomach twisting into knots
Knowin’ I’ma be rich and famous always hits a certain spot
Get my momma a crib, couple cars and buy myself a yacht
I can’t do this on my own, need the strength to overcome this beast
Give the power to reach out to youngins, hope the love increase
I’ma protect my legend, at any cost, that’s on TGE
I wish a **** would say sum crazy when he step to me
I’m just tryna make it out the mud and ain’t nothing wrong with that
**** throwing hate and throwing shade and then they turn they back
Well I’m not going out like that until I get my story told
I’ma keep my promise I made to Dezzo back in Fond du Lac
Got the symbol of power tatted on me, it’s in my name
A God-given power, so my circle will not stay the same
Gotta watch out for snakes, they only fuck wit me cuz of the fame
Keep that bullshit over there, cuz I’ma be in a different lane
Look up to them rappers, like Lil Uzi Vert and Polo G
I’ma be just like ’em, maybe better, so just wait and see
Don’t try to be my homie, you was the one throwing shade at me
Now ladies wearing Maybelline tryna get 50 shades of me
Grew up without a father figure, had to learn to be a man
These rich Oshkosh prissy pussys would never understand
All I was askin’ for was someone to lend a helping hand
Now they praise my name, you wasn’t there, they just another fan
So much pain in my soul, look for better days
If I wanna make it out, I gotta change my ways
Wear my heart on my sleeve, you can see my pain
Pray to God through it all, I’ma make a change
Watch the world come crashing and it’s hard to breathe
But I’ma live on, won’t let it get the best of me
Gotta stay strong through it all, it’s my destiny
Then maybe my soul will finally Rest In Peace
