The Glorious Five

Yeah
 We gon' let this shit rock
 Hey
 That's the Cole hey from back in the day
 Hey, yeah
 Just a youngin' with a dream
 Tryna get this money, yeah, I'm tryin' get this cream
 Not a lot know what I mean, for this rap shit I'm a fiend
 Not one to talk about poppin' pills and sippin' lean
 Just a passion for pussy, I'm tryin' to get up in the spleen
 This is my mentality rappin' at 19
 Back in Maryland, just tryin' to break out on the scene
 Buyin' fake chains at the mall, so girls be like, "Ooh, he clean"
 Daydreams that my life is like a movie scene
 Sippin' liquor, puffin' green, so obscene
 Ride around the city with my homies in a gat
 We was lookin' for trouble, now where's it at?
 Paint the picture like Picasso, matter fact like Sam Spratt
 Even younger I was trippin' skippin' school writin' raps
 Never on the road but on the roll like them craps
 Check the facts
 Endless rhyme books in my backpack
 Like that, uh
 I guess I acted out from lack of a father figure
 Go figure, performin' at open mics wishin' I could go bigger
 I was never in it for the money like a gold digger
 Every time my daddy call me he be like, "Ayo nigga, where the money at?"
 Yeah, that's what he'd say, "Little boy, you know you know I saw you on a PJ
 When you gon' fly me out, when you gon' smoke me out?"
 Always throw demands out, motherfuck a handout
 All I ever wanted was a daddy
 But that man priority was huggin' with a fatty
 But I'm glad he did 'cause it made me who I am
 Now I'm the man that I always wish he woulda been
 And never started smokin' crack; imagine just what could have been, damn
 Always felt like somethin' it was missin'
 Wish we could have played catch, had talks, and went fishin'
 But had no one there to listen
 Now it feel like my life mission is to be the best dad when the time come
 For my daughter and my son when the time come
 Teach 'em 'bout they heritage and where they come from
 Teach 'em 'bout they family history and then some
 I've been on the grind tryna find my way (ayo, ayo ayy)
 People come and go but I'ma be the one to stay (ayo, ayo ayy)
 People tell me I should live my life they way (ayo, ayo ayy)
 All I know is that I'm gonna make it one day (ayo, ayo ayy)
 I've been on the grind tryna find my way (ayo, ayo ayy)
 People come and go but I'ma be the one to stay (ayo, ayo ayy)
 People tell me I should live my life they way (ayo, ayo ayy)
 All I know is that I'm gonna make it one day (ayo, ayo ayy)
 Yeah, yeah
 Bobby, don't do it to 'em
 You're beautiful, and you don't gotta prove it to 'em
 Come on, come on Bobby, you ain't shit though
 Why your personality be split though?
 One minute it's PLP, the next that shit be slit throats
 Devil and an angel on my shoulder, that's my conscious
 Greatest rapper alive but never actin' Pontius
 Keep yourself in check like a dollar amount
 You ain't better than nobody based on your dollar amount
 Yeah, you've grown accustomed to the lifestyle but you never bougie
 Nah, you never brand new, no, it's never who's he
 See, I hate when I get recognized
 And while the fan is hypnotized
 I'm approached by random guys who feel the need to emphasize
 "I don't know who you are"
 I reply, "I'm a gentleman and a fuckin' rap star"
 Put your lighters in the sky if you got 'em
 This for anybody that feel like they at the bottom
 Nobody to tell 'em they special, you know I got 'em
 Nobody there to tell them they love them, well I got 'em
 Uh, no matter where you go, you gotta persevere
 Ain't no fuckin' around, ain't no makin' a sound, no, you just gotta murder the fear
 Yeah, I've been thinkin' about it, been tryna get out of it
 Fuck what I'm thinkin', it's time to break out of it
 Findin' myself in the thick and the debt of it
 Had a bit and I knew wanted to murder the son
 And I'm ready to get it, motherfuck a critic, I'm livin' my life and
 I've been on the grind tryna find my way (ayo, ayo ayy) (uh, yeah)
 People come and go but I'ma be the one to stay (ayo, ayo ayy) (yeah)
 People tell me I should live my life they way (ayo, ayo ayy) (oh yeah)
 All I know is that I'm gonna make it one day (ayo, ayo ayy) (oh yeah)
 I've been on the grind tryna find my way (ayo, ayo ayy, ah) (oh)
 People come and go, but I'ma be the one to stay (ayo, ayo aye) (like yeah)
 People tell me I should live my life they way (ayo, ayo aye) (yeah)
 All I know is that I'm gonna make it one day (ayo, ayo aye) (uh, yeah)
