Story Time

[Chorus]
Ey, from a place where the money ain't coming
But my pops, yeah made it out the trenches
He made sure that all the things that we needed, we got it right then
Yeah
But life ain’t that simple
So many things I done been sinful
I wish I could take away some of the things I done seen in the past

[Verse 1]
Ey
You know my name not my story, woah
I look to god for all my glory, yeah
I got a tale of one kid who done grew up viewing life like a muh fucker hobby, woah
A young king who never worried, or feared, ovеrthinking bout shit, I was jolly, (scoff)

I swear to god, who could stop me
Huh… swear to god who could stop mе, yeah
But shit change, I started seeing some patterns, I started seeing things
You see the money was flowing, but then the fam changed
I saw my momma crying tears, it was in disarray
My brother so close to dying, he was gon' go away
He is my idol, I done shed some tears like every day
And if you wanted the truth, then I hope you hear my pain
I put my heart on this paper, not for some paper gain

[Chorus]
Ey
You think the paper gon' save your soul, well think again
You gotta pray for some goals, then pray for M’s
I started rolling that dope, thought it would cleanse
And now I'm smoking my thoughts away, let's make amends

[Verse 2]
Ey…
I was feeling confined
But I got a hold of the problem, I had to flip the dimes
Bossing up ain't so easy when you don't got much time
And I swear that I had to boss up, I chose to spit some rhymes
I made a choice one day, that im gon' change the fucker world
All the things I seen and I been thru, got me some lessons learned
Devoting myself to people who seen the lowest lows
One day you'll see me on the stage, this is the life I chose

[Chorus]
Ey, from a place where the money ain't coming
But my pops, yeah made it out the trenches
He made sure that all the things that I needed, I got it right then
Yeah
But life ain’t that simple
So many things I done been sinful
I wish I could take away some of the things I done seen in the past
