Because of You

Yea, I figured since... it's my 30th birthday I should do something I really love So music is what it is I have a bunch of thoughts So here we go We ain't friends if I never hit the bank with ya I been picking up these bags like I hate litter Too many goals couldn't count them on my ten fingers Nine figures, bet that's something that you ain't figure No sitter, ain't nobody came around to play with ya In my own lane I ain't here to race with ya The flow so alive I became a grave digger For any rapper tryna step inside my way, kill em Wasn't riding in the hooptie can't sit in the wraith with us Ironic how with words all I do is paint pictures Wait until you're old enough to see your friends switch up Wasn't tryna buy bull (Bible), So I had to say scriptures Amen, God bless Couldn't stay abreast with me, got it off of my chest Had to X fakes, really tell me, why stress They was catching Z's on me, So I end the alphabet Don't be tryna write letters, you ain't gotta say jack I was stabbed in the back, Now y'all wanna give pats This ain't Wheel of fortune, My will, I force it Cause my truth, I live it, It's real, I talk it We just work like interns and live like bosses Celebrate all my wins, reveal my losses Cause there's kids out there studying my every move If I don't show that I fail then they think I never do I rather be the one, doesn't mean I'm never two Set to fail if you copy, but there ain't a better you That's how you grew, don't be scared to ever lose When you coming from the bottom then the top's a better view Ain't nothing new, just let them watch, they rather watch us on the news They hate and call us animals, they want us locked up like a Zoo And they gentrify the hood but we not about to move We just buying properties, we play monopoly with you And my father came alone, Fidel locked him over views He could never go back, that side of fam I never knew And when my sister said she's pregnant I was scared, What she'll go through Now we feeling super blessed to know the family finally grew Won't let my niece grow up alone, so Ima give her cousins soon We was in a old slump now we feeling all renewed We had to give up pain, we too busy loving you Our family's finally peaceful, and it's all because of you That part gets me every time I love y'all H
