I can turn a nick to a dime

I can turn a two to a five

I done seen plenty **** turn flaw so I ain't believing the lies

We done seen plenty **** turn state so how you get caught by surprise

How you look down on the young **** thugging you know they just want to survive

I was just trying to find me a way

I was hungry I found me a plate

Everytime they was counting me out they was counting wrong put it right in they face

Momma told me these **** gone hate

Momma told me these **** was fake

I was blind at first but now I can see it I got some amazing grace

I won't a rose in the dirt

I had to grow out the concrete

I never thought I could make it I thought all that shit on TV was beyond me

I did some work on myself I ain't point no fingers I had to refine me

We come from a city where **** don't make it but I never let it define me

Wrote it down and I stuck to the plan

Hope my momma can see I'm a man

It was hard at first but a young **** did it I know I can do it again

Give a fuck how you feel ima stand

Disrespect ima go to the can

I'm a rapper but don't get it twisted this shit'll get wicked if I feel offend

Came a long way from the bottom but I got a ways to go

They say more money more problems

**** I'm trying to raise the score

I'm trying to get it and go

I'm trying to get it and go

All this thugging shit been getting old I been slanging iron since twenty one four

Take a risk I'm trapping fuck a license

My **** punching phones Mike Tyson

I was broke as hell shit was frightening

Now it's on the floor like Dyson

Put my feelings in a bag and kept it pushing man I promise ain't nothing like it

I was just a baby in a man's world but the streets turned a **** shiesty

Free my brother sitting behind a wall

All he ever wanted was to ball

I just a caught a play for three pounds out in Wake Forest Chris Paul

Fuck a piece I'm coming for it all

Got the game in a lock I'm a dog

Keep a piece of steel like the word of god man I'm too official John Wall
