Hometown Hero

I remember having none in the driveway, bussin' Monday to Friday

I remember no food in the kitchen, even noodles on the wishlist

I remember they said I would be nothing, no, no, no

Look at me mama, I made it

I remember, I remember, I remember, I remember

They look at me like I'm a hero, cause I did this all on my own

I remember, I remember, I remember, I remember

Sorry I can't be a hero, but you gonna feel when I'm gone

You gon' feel it when I'm gone, you'll remember when I'm on

How I spill it in the song, takin' me for

Granted till them bullets hit my dome

They gon' post me on they phone, they forget about my rights

They be talkin' about my wrongs, shoulda fuckin' known

Take my flowers in the light, they just

Give em in the dark so they never grow

But my roots is runnin' deep, G-wagons by the fleet

Flooded on the streets, flooded like the AP

Underrated, unappreciated, that was me

Left a mark inside their heart, when it's said and done

Have my jersey with the greats, tell my youngins you the truth

Study all my wins, you can learn from my mistakes

I done carried all this shit on my back

I done seen them hate and still give me dap

Type of cat that push it till I collapse

Bunch of knives still be stuck in my back

Even my shadow will leave when it's dark

My story make you believe there's a god

Swallowed my pride it had horrible taste

Time to get even, I'm beating the odds

I remember having none in the driveway

Bussin' Monday to Friday

I remember no food in the kitchen Even noodles on the wishlist

I remember they said I would be nothing No no no Look at me

Mama I made it I remember I remember I remember I remember

They look at me like I'm a hero Cause I did this all on my own

I remember, I remember I remember I remember

Sorry I can't be your hero But you gonna feel when I'm gone

I remember shit that they don't remember

I remember shit they thought I forgot

I remember trying not to remember, but my memories living like Pac

It's me against the world, but that ain't no biggie

I'm the one, homie ain't no two-three, I'm like two-three

No, I'm Bruce Lee, hometown hero where my roots be

I get love and get respect from the legends

Youngest son of Juliette, she the essence

Type to take the shot with less than a second

Women wishing they be blessed in my presence

We the biggest, I will step on you peasants

Turn my losses into plenty of lessons

Where I'm from, ain't nobody do this yet

Always humble showing honor and reverence

I know they know when I'm no longer here

I'm gon' be revered, but dawg it's too late

Nothing in common with brokies and quitters

And haters and cappers, fuck out the way

Weed smoking and we drank sipping

Plus the numbers in the bank different

Great minds always think alike

Motherfucker, yeah, we think different

I remember having none in the driveway

Bussin' Monday to Friday

I remember no food in the kitchen

Even noodles on the wishlist

I remember they said I would be nothing

Look at me, mama, I made it
