I really could have died before my first album, let alone my second
This road I’m on, freedom, even breathing is a blessing
In the trenches I’ve exceeded everything that was expected
I could change the way this started, but I’ll change the way it’s ending
All them nights in prison might just have been the best thing
My life’s a movie, you can’t see this one on Netflix
I thought my life was over when my sentence got extended
Made millions off that sentence, could have been another sentence
I come too far to look up to the Lord and not thank him more
Wait till I’m on a case to ask him for a penance
I can handle all my enemies, protect me for my bredrins
I lost two smokes last week, security’s expensive
Remember sleeping in a rental, listening to instrumentals
SIM card in my mouth, that’s when I’m banking all the pebbles
Twenty-four shift fam, I’m downing all the Red Bull
Not that same nigga there selling out the venue
More time, I was stressful, and I still feel resentful
I realised everything that happened, it was meant to
I stay tryna rap about progression, but I’ll hold on to the past, the time comes, you gotta let go
To my pa I say, “Thank you”, my aunt I say, “Thank you”
HMP, every single gov, I say, “Thank you”
The sergeant that put me in those cuffs, I say, “Thank you”
I got done dirty by a judge, I say, “Thank you”
The tough times I went through, ain’t coincidental
Broken home and broken heart is what gave me my breakthrough
I pray to the Lord, this future’s nothing like my past
If only you could see my heart, you’ll know I’m thankful
How do we define the word “successful”?
I’m in this mini mansion, I ain’t sleeping tonight
And it’s the most enemies that there’s been my whole life
I made more money than I thought I’d need my whole life
And every time I need a psalm, I go read 35
It’s tighter than my biceps becah it gave me strength
I know there’s way more to life than just the ends
But you can catch me sat back on the glide before I sit on any fence
Had to oil down a skeng, make sure it fires like it’s Brent
When you come up off a Z, though, this is hard to comprehend
How much times it feel like things is going left
If you see me fall nine times, I’m guaranteed to stand up for the tenth
Bodies on the pavement, they cover them with tent
They hate on genres with the blame game, make it, makes no sense
They said, “Be careful what you wish for”
I’m a superstar with war, at least I’m better off than before
To my pa I say, “Thank you”, my aunt I say, “Thank you”
HMP, every single gov, I say, “Thank you”
The sergeant that put me in those cuffs, I say, “Thank you”
I got done dirty by a judge, I say, “Thank you”
The tough times I went through, ain’t coincidental
Broken home and broken heart is what gave me my breakthrough
I pray to the Lord, this future’s nothing like my past
If only you could see my heart, you’ll know I’m thankful
