Lyrics

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
 Yeah
 Hey, hey
 Uh
 I met this girl the other day that wanna know my story
 She said since the world against me, she all for me
 I told her God must've overheard my hopeful wish
 And crazy how I never would've thought to be in this position
 'Cause see "Hip-hop saved my life" is such a cliché quote
 But before I grabbed the mic, I was the poster-child of broke, uh
 Signed my first deal off the realest shit I wrote
 I told my city I'm the closest thing to hope
 Used to be barely above water, now I float
 Same bitches in my DM's used to take me for a joke
 Niggas talk crow, shit behind my back and then call me bro
 Like bro, you gotta match one before you blow
 I always leave the message on seen 'cause I don't smoke
 When really I don't fuck with half these niggas on the low
 And that's just how it go
 She go: "Damn, nigga, that's deep", I know, tell me about it
 My life be full of stress, fake niggas, and sleep deprivin' like, uh
 Dreams, all my shit been colossal though
 Used to be honor roll, now it's foreign whips I'm riding on
 Now everything I flow hot as fuck, I mean poblano though
 Me and Lute 'posed to been did this shit, it's perfect timing though
 Remember us being younger, talking about gettin' signed to Cole?
 I was so hot-headed then, I'm a lot calmer though
 Tryna buy me a brick house when I get comma though
 Money gon' help with a lot of things but not the trauma though
 Had so many adventure times, we used to run from the jakes
 To make it for Southside, we do whatever it takes
 It was apartheid when my barber parted my fade
 'Cause now I'm pulled left and right by Keshia and Adrinae
 All this shit gets so deep, man, I'm hoping y'all dive in
 I don't fuck with surviving, I'm only thinkin' 'bout thriving
 But you way too afraid, yeah, I know what your vibe is
 Always worried 'bout me, that shit must be sleep depriving
 That shit must be sleep depriving
 ♪
 I ain't never had nothin', yeah, I had to work for it
 Prayed to God every day, even went to church for it
 Built from the ground up, played in the dirt for it
 God told me it would work out, I took his word for it
 We all come from a very different path
 Look at what we been through, look at where we at
 Got 'em losing sleep worried 'bout what we on
 Said I wouldn't make it but I always prove wrong, yeah
 ♪
 Yeah
 Turn into a big deal, but way realer than Black Friday
 They let a visionary vibrate
 Hoppin' through the Tri-State
 I got this bird box simply off a blind date
 Now I'm in a tryin' state
 Turn into a horror story
 Broke my heart to the point I had to find tape
 Spraying Lysol, sage, just to wipe her away like eternal sunshine
 Pulled up in a drop spot like some summer times
 Seen you with some other guy, long story, summarize
 Writing on the wall, got your message under mine
 I been gettin' high, summer crime, ever since
 Wonder why ill intent was inside of your skin, damn
 Dookey braids, droopy eyes, it was groupie love
 Hurt feelings, no cap like bougie clubs
 Sat alone deep in silence
 Thinkin' 'bout you gettin' sleep deprivin', yeah
 I ain't never had nothin', yeah, I had to work for it
 Prayed to God every day, even went to church for it
 Built from the ground up, played in the dirt for it
 God told me it would work out, I took his word for it
 We all come from a very different path
 Look at what we been through, look at where we at
 Got 'em losing sleep worried 'bout what we on
 Said I wouldn't make it but I always prove wrong, yeah
