BLESSED (feat. Collin Gibson)

Elle is for legacy

Wanna know how I got over

How I got it out the mud

I've been grinding longer

Then most of you **** Folgers

Weight of the world on my shoulders, and angels praying for my cover

My mama was working

My daddy wasn't there

I'm blessed to be here by his grace to give what I didn't have

Learned early don't expect nobody 2 be round

Family might be blood But that don't mean they 'round

Friends, they come and go, And if they hold you down

Hold tight, because it's rare, it's rare

Most what people say, is just some surface shit

Strange when people tell you how they really feel

It's refreshing to find a soul that can be really real

If you're that, whether they love or hate you

They always come back

Shine, ain't nothing but a semblance of love

If you're chasing it to fill you up, you'll be empty, Love

If you're down, remember, only way to go is up

How I got over

How I got over

Wanna know how I got over

How I got it out the mud

I've been grinding longer

Then most of you **** Folgers

Weight of the world on my shoulders

And angels praying for my cover

My mama was working

My daddy wasn't there

I'm blessed to be here by his grace to give what I didn't have

Learned later, people come and go just as they should

Holding on too long it never ends up like it would

Blood just means we come from the same line

We've all lied to ourselves at one time

Closed hand and heart can't ever get nothing new

I still love connecting with the soul That's true

Shine ain't nothing but a semblance of love

If you're down, remember the only way to go is up

The year was 2006

I was around in the mix

Pounding the streets

Trying to get found in this bitch

Studio sessions all night I would wash in the sink

Some people try not to think about it

Me, I remember the struggle

I been on my hustle

Been grinding to get up out it

Ripping rebuilding my muscles

I'm brolic I promise that

God don't play 'bout me

Look at my ride, no lie

**** look at my wife, oh my

**** look at my life, no lie

No wings still fly, so fly

You can tell I'm blessed, no lie

No seeds no stress, so high

I release that mess, I don't need that

Wanna know I got

We can skip right past in the recap relax

**** be acting loud, black and proud

Trying to grab the crown but it be cap

You can keep that

Any negative energy I don't feed that

Any weapon of enemy I can beat that

An incredible legacy Ima leave that

You can believe that

Wanna know how I got over

How I got it out the mud

I've been grinding longer

Then most of you **** Folgers

Weight of the world on my shoulders, and angels praying for my cover

My mama was working

My daddy wasn't there

I'm blessed to be here by his grace to give what I didn't have
