Lyrics

Mmm
Rain on the block, young boy with a dream still
Night bus rides and the pain feel deep still
Yeah
Mmm
Mmm
Young boy came from the cold nights
Mum stressed out, bills high, no lights
Now I make pain sound wavy on the mic
Still got scars I can't hide inside
Cah I done seen real tears on the pavement (Pavement)
Real friends switch when the money start changing (Changing)
Now the whole damn city wanna say shit
But back then they never rated, mmm
Now I glide through the ends with the tints real low (Low)
Still feel broke when I think 'bout home (Home)
'Cause success don't heal what trauma knows
Young boy still tryna find his soul in this (Mmm)
Used to see mum cry late night in the kitchen
While I sat quiet acting like I weren't listening
Fridge half empty, stress in the system
So I hit road young tryna change the position
School never worked, my mind stayed distant
Teacher said I wouldn't be shit, I remember
Now I make wavy music for the broken
Real life pain, I ain't rapping for gimmicks
Still got friends doing time in prison
One call changed bro's whole existence
Now his mum gotta visit through glass every Christmas
Fuck, that shit made man grow too quick
Young black boy with a dream too big
Used to write bars while the rain hit bricks
Man, I chain got diamonds and my heart stay sick
And I still feel pressure when the night gets cold
Still see old memories when my eyes stay closed
Everybody loves you when the ice and the clothes come (Mmm)
But nobody saw when the hunger took over (Mmm)
Young boy came from the cold nights
Mum stressed out, bills high, no lights
Now I make pain sound wavy on the mic
Still got scars I can't hide inside
Cah I done seen real tears on the pavement (Pavement)
Real friends switch when the money start changing (Changing)
Now the whole damn city wanna say shit
But back then they never rated, mmm
Now I glide through the ends with the tints real low (Low)
Still feel broke when I think 'bout home (Home)
'Cause success don't heal what trauma knows
Young boy still tryna find his soul in this (Mmm)
Late night studio, eyes looking tired
Thinking how the fuck did I make it this far now?
Still got trauma that I mask with the lifestyle
Still thank God when I land in a new town, mmm
Pain made the flow too different
That's why the real ones feel this
I came from the bottom of the madness
Now my name got the whole block listening
I remember nights I was broke on the train home
No sleep, just dreams and a fake hope
Now I fly OT and the chains froze
But success still don't make the pain go
Still got demons that I hide with the fame though
Everybody sees the lights and the bankroll
Nobody saw when I felt fucking hopeless
Lost a couple bros to the fast life
Some got birded, some vanished in black nights
That's why I move cautious when the cash nice
Cah real pain comes hidden in the highlights
Now the young boys scream when my tracks play
Like I ain't come from the same damn pathways
I just made darkness sound wavy
And turned street pain into champagne
Mmm
Young boy with a dream still
Too deep in this life still
Mmm
