Raised in the trap where I seen more drugs out the window than CVS
Murder mo' murder was all that I saw as kid, nigga shoulda called CPS
Said I wouldn't make it but I'm headed to the bank
I'm getting famous to a check I got the GPS
Hoes ain't want me back then now they be packed in at my shows and they DTF

Back in '99 was on the East side
Recalled a couple years before when Eazy E died
And then was Mackavelli, also Biggie, that was heavy how we seen the masses steady murder these guys
What I learned is no age'll decease time and they stupefy to crucify you in the meantime
Then they strip you like it's Vegas for the riches
Life created, is there life after death 'cause I need mine, hold up
Niggas want a slice of my Key lime
Pirus and the Locs by the v line
And Marie Callender's whenever they receive time
Go to war then run in mine, we try
Everything to break us up but now I see why
See a lease every single time we ride
All my heroes are dead, can I indeed rise?
You ain't timing caller when it's over can't respawn, geeze I
Pull up where I used to reside
Diamonds on me, 'cause they didn't think we shine
Tried to OD, my father was beside
Me, but I made it but soon I would retry
Now I do it bigger than fee fi fo
And I got yo wife tryna be my hoe
Back then she was hating, she ain't think I'd know
Don't ever call me Tarrel, bitch I'm King Iso
Where were you when I was raised in the trap where I seen more drugs out the window than CVS
This ain't the hook nigga, I came to cook niggas, yo babe is hooked finna be BFs
Put this D in her league and she can be the ref, VVS flex, I'm C.T. Fletch
Keep heat, yes, big arms, he's T-Rex, and niggas can't reach me, believe me, stretch
P.S. I was
Raised in the trap where I seen more drugs out the window than CVS
Murder mo' murder was all that I saw as kid, nigga shoulda called CPS
Said I wouldn't make it but I'm headed to the bank
I'm getting famous to a check I got the GPS
Hoes ain't want me back then now they be packed in at my shows and they DTF

Shoulda been learning my ABCs
But I was too cool being D E F
G'd up, cold hearted underneath the chest
PTSD, you can see we stressed
Murder mo' murder was all that I saw
He was just at school now in piece he rest
We believe we next
If you live by the gun you gon' die by the gun
That's an easy bet
And the previous
Summer his mother had to bury his brother, now she's bereft
And the father was shot by a cop who's perturbed
'Cause he urged him to stop it when he request
The sun don't shine when you're submerged in darkness
I was born in it, I was birthed in darkness
Bane of my existence, immersed in darkness
I was sworn in it, now I'm purging darkness
Emerge from darkness glistening
It's a new beginning, like a christening
Had the blues, the depression was crippling
Would I or would I not survive? Suspense was riveting
I was a work of progress God was chiseling
Full court press, in the zone I was dribbling
Far from a saint on the grind on my own going hard in the paint on the baseline I'm pivoting
Going Waka Flocka on the block with choppas
Never stop when coppas got inquisitive
It took a lot to lock us, we would pop the Glocks at all the opps and y'all potential witnesses
I got a strange proposition, accepted it now I'm claiming my position
Unconcerned what remains of opposition, I'm not complaining
Just explainin' my persistence (bitch!)
'Cause I was
Raised in the trap where I seen more drugs out the window than CVS
Murder mo' murder was all that I saw as kid, nigga shoulda called CPS
