I woke up knew something was coming
My dream had my heart pumping
My mind jumping
False deified lives and fake stunting
I was full of it
My life was full of grit
I never really understood it
I was too young I really couldn't
My dad left and my mom died
I was with my grandma Ann my whole life
She was my everything
Satisfying my every dream
Fullfilling my life with the better things
Life without hennessy
14 when she got me
Bad ideas was all I copied
But the thoughts that she brought me
Made me generous and never cocky
I had a young mind
Tempted with success, glory, money all the glisten and shine
I was impatient and never thought I had the time
Because my time was taken too soon hoping that I could rewind
Her son my uncle was moving stealthy
Aquiring that dirty money but it made him real wealthy
I would speak my mind and he really felt me
I would seek advice and he'd always tell me
Do what you want
Do what you can
Never hold out your hand
Move it quick and be a man
Too young to fully understand
This was the beginning
Where it all started
I wasn't all conscious
Questions like would it happen regardless
Been through so much should've known I'd be heartless
Hiding me from myself I was never really honest
I knew my life was so tough
Never really satisfied never had enough
I was patched and rough
My uncle had me going down the wrong path astray
Had me flipping drugs making cash this way and that way
Had me on that stuff I had an ashtray
I lived life in the fastlane
Made that cash the fast way
Didn't know it had a catch though
I thought I was natural
I'd make that bank and buy myself some new shoes
I was laced up nice, I'd hook the squad up too
I had that new phone
And got my homies out of that group home
I swore I had a team but I was really working alone
I got a phone call one night at like 2am
They shot up my old house that had that roof caved in
One fatality noted that can't be true my man
Ann had a bullet in her chest and I had two chains man
She had a bullet in her chest
I had to ask what's next
When she left a part of me did too
I was confused
I knew my life was meant to be more this wasn't what I was supposed to do
Depressed
I had to confess
Church was my savior yes
The lord was my witness
I was hoping he could protect
Me from whatever would happen in the future I guess
I was depressed
