[Intro] Represent, you act like this was the first time we done had to tell y'all You can hear us though, you can hear us... in 4, 3, 2, 1 [Verse 1] I was born a bastard, my mama was a baby And she didn't have the skills it would ever take to raise me Pops jumped ship and left us doin bad I pretty much blame him for everything I never had Fall back cuz I remember I was always mad Constantly in trouble, I was always bad Used to whip my ass for stealin and skippin class Just basically fuckin up, they said I was nothing but a fuck up Your fuckin nuts, just wait and see I can't wait to make them eat that shit they talk bout me I'm gonna make granny proud of me Be someone that I can be, proud to be They ain't gonna make no ass out of me How did we, overcome such obstacles and setbacks They told me I was average but I just couldn't accept that Let that, be those words carved in my headstone P. S. you hatin muthafuckas were dead wrong [Chorus x2] Told you muthafuckas I won, I was gon do it I was gon do it, still you doubted me... still you doubted me [Verse 2] Day turn to night, I paid the cost for the fame I was drawn to the game like a moth to a flame Guess you could say I had a troublesome past Rememberin talkin to mama, talking through glass The look in her eye, boy I'm so sick of your ass You're never gonna change, you're just like your dad (damn!) A look in her face that told me I was mistake She wish she had never made, goes from back from in the day What came from the grave, was a message she didn't wanna hear Remember that trip from hell, well here's your little souvenir Don't drink no Belvedere, I blow that killer smoke I hit that volume button and let them guerillas go You didn't know or see the growth through the concrete Makin million dollars merely speakin over drum beats Yes did, been telling you since I was a kid And you was bonded, get on with that bullshit [Chorus x2] [Verse 3] I rolled my eyes, as if to say fuck all y'all All I ever had was my muthafuckin Paw Paw My gramma, fed me catfish and coleslaw I hit the weed then pass it to my road dog I grip the steering wheel, I'm mashin gas pedal Bitch, I'm gonna be here when the muthafuckin dust settles Probably been off if I had just let go I wonder where I'd be in life if I just said no But life's too short for me to ponder questions I'll never answer But why am I still smoking from all I've lost from cancer At this point in life, all my worries are financial And any losses that I have to take will be substantial I'm not stopping because it's not an option Get it straight, I'm not sweepin and not moppin A muthafuckin thing, you get that boss And all that real job talk just piss Stak off [Chorus x2]
