Sacrifices

[Intro]
Aye man look
You know they say you always talking 'bout pain and shit
Nigga pain made me
I don't know 'bout the rest of 'em but
They always show you the ups never the downs of this shit
How much it cost how much you lost

[Verse 1]
As a kid all I wanted was them M's
And the way they made it seem it didn't look hard as it is
I think God that I'm here
They ain't talk about the lost and what it costed for real
All the years that I lost with my kids
They don't respect me as a dad to them I'm a rapper
Look at me as Derez De'Shon don't even call me daddy
Can't even blame 'em bеcause most of they life I been absеnt
Yeah
And it fucked me up sometimes thoughts goin' through my mind
Like why my daughter turn on me and pick the other side
Goin through her phone seeing text that damn near made me cry
She don't think I love her and deep down inside I wonder why
When I been doing this for you the whole time
I ain't want you to grow up like me or your momma
She ain't have no daddy that's why I be there for you one hundred
Aye they say time is money
But what I learned you either got the time or got the money

Sacrifices I made I made I made
Sacrifices I made I made I made
Sacrifices I made I made I made
Sacrifices I made I made I made

[Verse 2]
Tears rolling down my cheeks right now nigga you just like me
I know if you was bigger than you would prolly try to fight me
But one thing that you need to remember nigga I'm a titan
I made you who you is so don't you ever get beside your self yeah
Don't ever get it twisted nigga
Gangsta shit in me nigga
Where you think you get it nigga
Only thing different with us
I ain't choose this shit it chose me
You tryna pick it nigga
Look at how you living nigga
You was raised different I made sure of that don't temp me nigga
And don't get in your feelings and try to tell them folks I'm trippin' neither
When I get on your ass it's because I want you to be bigger than me
Only two ways out this shit the casket or the penitentiary
Sacrifices (and I was lucky I made it) I made I made I made
I remember nights we hungry dinner time we got baloney
And this shit did something to me turnt me to a transformer
Fuck it turnt me to a monster no more Mr. Nice guy duck being humble
If you knew what it took to get this bread, you'll probably crumble
If you knew what it took to carry this load, you'll probably fumble
That's why I deal with all this karma I coulda went and worked McDonald's
But instead, I hit my number gambled my whole life away
So, you don't have these problems

[Chrous]
Sacrifices I made I made I made
Sacrifices I made I made I made
Sacrifices I made I made I made
Sacrifices I made I made I made

[Outro]
Aye I ain't nowhere near perfect
But I'ma do my damn best to make sure y'all closer to perfect than I ever was in my whole life
And that's till I die
Daddy love you all y'all bad ass
