Lyrics

(EX)
Check the watch you know this shit is perfect timing
The stars aligning all my blessings coinciding
Them Hard times done made me who I am today
But if it wasn’t for that pressure I could never be a diamond
It’s like
I’m on a island where my thoughts could get the best of me
Them demons holding me
The devil tryna pester me
I’m way too solid to be broken by this world
I just accept it as man they never show your ass no empathy
But, what if I could be the one to make the change?
And what if I could be the one to turn the page?
The youngest son was always destined to be great
I just hope I smell my flower before they put me in the grave
(D.ETIENNE)
Before they put me in the grave
I need them guys to free the wave
I’m not rookie to the struggle or a rookie to the game
I’m solid if i gotta be honest and take the blame
I be treating them same but they playin wit my name
I never lied trynna be something i didn’t claim
Rappers died thinkin they fire they gettin flamed
I pushed thru everyday i was buggin and feelin pain
But the hustle is what i gained i want a Cullinan and Range
We came from takin losses now we takin payments
Rappers be lying to kick it trynna make it famous
Said they makin money
Whole time they in there making statements
Trynna take my cadence and fragrance
Makin entertainment
(EX)
All the pain we’ve taken
All the wounds we shaking
All them days was in my room where I would pray to make it
All them nights at cuzzo crib was posted on PlayStation
Funny how it changed to money talks about us staying patient
We done had the cabinets vacant
Roaches in the carpet
Candles lit when we was passed it got us through darkness
Momma used to tell me stories how she lived the hardest
That shit make me thankful that I got a mother and a father
We don’t had some better days
But it could always be worse
Life ain’t shit like in the movies
Ain’t no fucking dream works
My closest friend done saw his father pasted on a T-shirt
That shit make me wish I feel his pain so I could help when he hurt
For real
(D.ETIENNE)
What you know hustling and giving out that free merch
Living life in reverse
I’m steppin till my feet hurt
Every time i’m onna tracc you know i gotta leave earth
30 said that everybody gon eat but we gon eat first
My fam is the reason i’ll never put out a weak verse
You talkin bout my peoples then you gotta do ya research
I really be livin in Paterson where that heat burst
I been bad situs but i know that it could be worse
To get where i got
You really have to do what i did
I remember days we ain’t have no food in the crib
A Paterson steppa. ya really couldn’t move where i live
They be sleeping with machines and got the tool in the whip
(EX)
All the pain we’ve taken
All the wounds we shaking
All them days was in my room where I would pray to make it
All them nights at cuzzo crib was posted on PlayStation
Funny how it changed to money talks about us staying patient
We done had the cabinets vacant
Roaches in the carpet
Candles lit when we was passed it got us through darkness
Momma used to tell me stories how she lived the hardest
That shit make me thankful that I got a mother and a father
We done had some better days
But it could always be worse
Life ain’t shit like in the movies
Ain’t no fucking dream works
My closest friend done saw his father pasted on a T-shirt
That shit make me wish I feel his pain so I could help when he hurt
For real
