Lyrics

I get a call from my mom before sun up
Telling me I need to go ahead and get my son up
Cause I overslept but I had a rough night
Give me 20 plus meet me at the third light
On the right near the pike where the turn is a table
She tryna help her baby live a life more stable
That was quite a while ago when I didn't know
How I'ma make it through the world without letting go
Or losing focus of the task at hand
Cause my agenda meant that I would have a mic in hand
Hot damn recline cause I'ma take you back
To a time when all I cared about was rap
It happened just like that I used to write in my sleep
A pen and pad was always in the bed with me
Impressed I was Empress I did see
When I saw the woman in the mirror staring at me
It all started on a Thursday 459 when I decided
That it's time to come out into the world to see
How to manifest life from a born degree
It all started on a Thursday 459 when I decided
That it's time to come out into the world to see
How to manifest life from a born degree
Now that don't mean that I ain't meet with struggle
My village strong but most of it just came from my mother
Truth be told don't know where I'd be
If I didn't have M-A-R-G-I-E
All the while she battling her own in silence
Thinking bout the generations that was plagued with violence
Hold this cup fill it up tenfold she so modest but in her I trust
So it's her I must not interrupt
When she giving out the lessons bout such and such
And all that I know is that she got me
So I don't hesitate whenever she is in need
The day that I was born she gave birth
For the second time around she bringing life to earth
So without being too complica
What I'm really tryna to say is that it's her birthday
It all started on a Thursday 459 when I decided
That it's time to come out into the world to see
How to manifest life from a born degree
It all started on a Thursday 459 when I decided
That it's time to come out into the world to see
How to manifest life from a born degree
It all started on a Thursday 459 when I decided
That it's time to come out into the world to see
How to manifest life from a born degree
It all started on a Thursday 459 when I decided
That it's time to come out into the world to see
How to manifest life from a born degree
