Hood Story

[Intro: FCG Heem]
(Produced by YodaYae1K)
Yeah, oh
They say, oh, oh

[Chorus: FCG Heem]
Tryna make a way, my brother died, he ain't even reach my age (He ain't even reach my age)
Small city but, I swear, I had big dreams of gettin' paid (Big dreams of gettin' paid)
Know it's gon' make her day, when my grandma see me on that stage (See me on that stage)
Really came from nothing, I'm thankful for this life, I really prayed (I really prayed, yeah)
Really came from nothing, I'm thankful for this life, I had it hard (Life, I had it hard)
Keep that glizzy by my side, I don't rеally need no bodyguard (I don't need no bodyguard)
Feel like I'm fallin' out of love, nevеr thought we'd ever be apart (Never thought we'd ever be apart)
Baby, this here just the story how lil' one turned to a star

[Verse 1: FCG Heem]
Baby, this here just the story how lil' one turned to a man
Really beat the odds, I'm doin' everything they said I can't
The hood still love me, I'ma always be myself, I won't pretend
Mob with my brothers, Ion't trust nobody, Ion't want no friends
Tell them labels, "I won't sign," I need them millions in advance
Tell the young niggas, "Chase you dreams 'cause everybody gon' get they chance"
Tryna tell my momma I'm really a star, I got fans way in France
Me and Lil' Foreign countin' that money, we were just broke, now we got them bands
I'm sorry, I come from nothing, I'm not used to this at all
I done ran up all this money so me and my brothers and them can ball
Back then, when I was nobody, ain't have no one that I can call
Slow down 'cause you start trippin', who gon' catch you when you fall?

[Chorus: FCG Heem]
Tryna make a way, my brother died, he ain't even reach my age (He ain't even reach my age)
Small city but, I swear, I had big dreams of gettin' paid (Big dreams of gettin' paid)
Know it's gon' make her day, when my grandma see me on that stage (See me on that stage)
Really came from nothing, I'm thankful for this life, I really prayed (I really prayed, yeah)
Really came from nothing, I'm thankful for this life, I had it hard (Life, I had it hard)
Keep that glizzy by my side, I don't really need no bodyguard (I don't need no bodyguard)
Feel like I'm fallin' out of love, never thought we'd ever be apart (Never thought we'd ever be apart)
Baby, this here just the story how lil' one turned to a star

[Verse 2: NoCap]
Nigga fell deep in that gutter, it was shit we couldn't avoid
I done seen so many court dates, I don't want to see no more
Judge fuckin' up my money, I can't even go on tour
Baby, this is just a story how lil' one turned to a god
Out on a couple bonds, I'm still gon' ride 'round with that Glock
Countin' up money, I'm countin' up blessings
I wake up and tell God, "Just don't let 'em wet me"
I wake up and tell my uncle that I love him 'fore it's too late
They tryna bust a king dome, got fans out in UK
Cross the street from Tammy house, I'm tryna sell my last two pints
I tried linkin' up with rappers but the industry just too fake
Opps been linkin' up with opps, they do whatever just to be safe
When you come this far, it's unsolved enemies
Just know them blue notes become envy
Your hood, my hood got the same struggle, streets just an antonym
I got life or death secrets, would you die if you mention them?

[Verse 3: FCG Heem, NoCap, & Both]
Yeah, and I never thought this lifestyle would've changed us
Keepin' my family straight, I never cared 'bout being famous
Them niggas don't got no love for me no more, it turned to hatred
You were never there when we were broke, I don't want you around when we make it (Don't come around)
From Shallow Side, a young nigga slang that iron, it's do or die
Know my brother and them gon' slide, fuck with the kid, it's suicide
Paid my momma bills, brought tears straight to her eyes, you ain't gotta cry
Let my brother know I love him if I don't get to say goodbye

[Chorus: FCG Heem]
Tryna make a way, my brother died, he ain't even reach my age (He ain't even reach my age)
Small city but, I swear, I had big dreams of gettin' paid (I had big dreams of gettin' paid)
Know it's gon' make her day, when my grandma see me on that stage (She see me on that stage, yeah)
Really came from nothing, I'm thankful for this life, I really prayed (I really prayed, yeah)
Really came from nothing, I'm thankful for this life, I had it hard (Life, I had it hard, yeah)
Keep that glizzy by my side, I don't really need no bodyguard (I don't really need no bodyguard, yeah)
Feel like I'm fallin' out of love, never thought we'd ever be apart (Never thought we'd ever be apart, yeah)
Baby, this here just the story how lil' one turned to a star

[Outro: FCG Heem]
How you turned to a star, yeah
Baby, this the lifestyle I dreamed of
Yeah, they say, oh, oh
Oh, they say, oh, oh
