 Start a family, bought a house
 I finally see what pops was talking 'bout
 But it was hard lookin' up when I was down (I was down)
 I was down bad and bummy
 They were laughin' at me but it wasn't funny
 Imagine me in the bottom as a youngin', on to any given Sunday
 Tryna find a way to get some money
 We cut grass to get cash when we was hungry
 Stealin' chicken out of Publix
 Nigga grab a box and go to runnin'
 Niggas never gave me nothin', so it's fuck 'em (so it's fuck 'em)
 Was ballin' on a budget
 I remember ballin' on a budget (budget)
 I was fine 'til my mind got corrupted (corrupted)
 Used to want to be a Firefighter or a Teacher (yeah, yeah)
 'Til niggas came through on the 22's and booming speakers (yeah, yeah)
 My mind changed instantly
 Mom didn't even know what gotten into me (into me)
 Thuggin' hard, stealin' cars and shootin' at the enemies
 I used to hit my knees and pray I'd find them things for ten a piece
 'Til then, we slow grind and break it down to ten a G (ten a G)
 'Til then, slow grind and break it down to ten a G (yeah, yeah, yeah)
 I know you remember me
 Back in 11th grade, was addicted to poppin' seals (poppin' seals)

 The smile up on my face, bae, 'cause I been swallowing pills (yeah)
 Couldn't focus in class, my mind was stuck on them M's (on me M's)
 Get to thinking 'bout my past

 I never thought I'd see the day I get a record deal
 Move my baby mama to the hills, fuck the drama, babe, let's live
 In the Bahamas tryna heal
 Tell me your problems and your fears, yeah (yeah, yeah)
 And all of them niggas on the internet be hoes (they be hoes)
 You the type of nigga I hated when I was broke (broke for real)
 You the type of nigga see this pole and be froze
 I'm the type of nigga
 Get jealous and rob him out of his clothes (clothes for real)
 By the time you jumped off the porch
 I was in the middle of the road (I was in the road)
 When you got down the street, I was already headed home (headed home)
 On the porch knockin', lookin' for love but it was gone (it was gone)
 Thank God I found my passion in these songs

 This for them tribulations and trials
 Things lookin' up, when I was down
 It was hard tryna get it off the ground
 Tribulations and trials
 You couldn't take my shoes and walk a mile
 Finna put them diamonds in my mouth, 'cause now

 A reason to smile, reason to smile
 A reason to smile
 Reason to smile, a reason to smile
