[ Intro ]
Represent, you act like this was the first time we done had to tell y'all
You can hear us though, you can hear us... in 4, 3, 2, 1
( Verse 1 )
I was born a b******, my mama was a baby
And she didn't have the skills it would ever take to raise me
Pops jumped ship and left us doin bad
I pretty much blame him for everything I never had
Fall back cuz I remember I was always mad
Constantly in trouble, I was always bad
Used to whip my a** for stealin and skippin class
Just basically f***** up, they said I was nothing but a f*** up
Your f***** nuts, just wait and see
I can't wait to make them eat that s*** they talk bout me
I'm gonna make granny proud of me
Be someone that I can be, proud to be
They ain't gonna make no a** out of me
How did we, overcome such obstacles and setbacks
They told me I was average but I just couldn't accept that
Let that, be those words carved in my headstone
P. S. you hatin m****f****s were dead wrong
( Chorus ) 2x
Told you m****f****s I won, I was gon do it
I was gon do it, still you doubted me... still you doubted me
( Verse 2 )
Day turn to night, I paid the cost for the fame
I was drawn to the game like a moth to a flame
Guess you could say I had a troublesome past
Rememberin talkin to mama, talking through glass
The look in her eye, boy I'm so sick of your a**
You're never gonna change, you're just like your dad (d***!)
A look in her face that told me I was mistake
She wish she had never made, goes from back from in the day
What came from the grave, was a message she didn't wanna hear
Remember that trip from hell, well here's your little souvenir
Don't drink no Belvedere, I blow that killer smoke
I hit that volume b***on and let them guerillas go
You didn't know or see the growth through the concrete
Makin million dollars merely speakin over drum beats
Yes did, been telling you since I was a kid
And you was bonded, get on with that bullshit
( Chorus ) 2x
( Verse 3 )
I rolled my eyes, as if to say f*** all y'all
All I ever had was my m****f***in Paw Paw
My gramma, fed me catfish and coleslaw
I hit the weed then pass it to my road dog
I grip the steering wheel, I'm mashin gas pedal
b****, I'm gonna be here when the m****f***in dust settles
Probably been off if I had just let go
I wonder where I'd be in life if I just said no
But life's too short for me to ponder questions I'll never answer
But why am I still smoking from all I've lost from cancer
At this point in life, all my worries are financial
And any losses that I have to take will be substantial
I'm not stopping because it's not an option
Get it straight, I'm not sweepin and not moppin
A m****f***in thing, you get that boss
And all that real job talk just p*** Stak off
( Chorus ) 2x
