The Road

[Unique Verse] :
They don't really wanna see me shine
They don't really wanna see that
But shit, I don't even need that feedback
Toss and turn I'm at a loss for words
Put me down until I'm sittin' on my kneecaps
Tryna tell me I ain't even really live dude
Like I done been through shit too
Shit dudes at a really young age
Any one day shouldn't have to live through
But I take my time when I'm chillin' and I'm makin' rhymes
Anything that can erase my mind
From the past, past shit, I tell it with my passion
Hopin' God'll forgive me for all my past sins
"Always lived good !" Whatchu talkin' 'bout ?
We damn near done lost the house
Sad fear gettin' tossed around, tryin'
Everything we could to get some money so
The lender wouldn't lock us out
Overtime, people thinkin' we was overpaid
But we was makin' sure the home was saved
And yeah, I appreciated the pity
The only thing that we could do was find a place in the city
And that's tragic, mama don't like that shit
Got me thinkin' this is real life shit
That act fast ; never get to think twice, shit
That's probably why I press the ink like this
And mama always told me often
"Don't take shit for granted" so when
Dad bought me a microphone
I quickly became an addict
'Til one day, my dad stopped breathin'
Why Jesus ? My heart was sinkin'
My sister shed tears and my mama screamin'
I couldn't believe it
Fifteen and my daddy done passed
Mama said I had to man it up fast
I "always lived good !", whatchu talkin' 'bout ?
It ain't good knowin' I ain't got my pops around
Glad he got to see me on stage for the first time
Showin' love while I was rappin'
Then I had to see him in a coffin for the first time
Until he crumbled up to ashes
And sometimes my mama wept new tears
Insurance got us for the next few years
We saved the crib, now we waitin' on me to make it big
Damn ! Shit ! Guess who's here ?
I don't wanna see death, I don't wanna see hearses
All I wanna see's a hundred free verses
Tryna push me far but I'ma set it straight
I'll be here for a minute, lemme ventilate

[Outro]
And I'm gone
Shit
One take, fuckin' bitch
Yaa
