Promonant - Young & Gifted Lyrics

The young and gifted survive over the unintended
How could you live high class if you never attended?
I'll show you how to make the rich out of a poor decision
Breaking records the lethal weapons of my intermission
Long awaited for this moment
When I'm dead up in the ear beside the face inside the brain of my opponent
Niggas hear me on these beats that im holding
The f*cking fire in my eyes as I seize away my emotions
You think that I'm joking, boy this shit is REAL
I work hard for the records that done made a record deal
Just so i can get attention from the ones that came before me
Already set the stage so i can tell my own story
Growing up i had it all knew my parents very well
Both loved me and weren't disgusted by all these fairytales
That I kept in my heart as i watched everybody's fall apart
And kept on smiling with all my dreams silent in the dark
Everything i wanted best believe i had the best
Every Christmas year living room was Toys R Us
Enough clothes to slap a flee market right back to New York
And turn a foot locker back into a school bus
Spoiled kid from a middle class mother with a yellow ass
Blue across her back making sure we made it to class
Lived in Guilford county residence of Carolina state
Born and raised in Wilmington dont make no mistake
Im still tryna make a dollar bout the length of a prada bag
I wanna get bout 27 price tags
My cousin would sell it all for a can of ravioli
Cuz life is never giving to the needy what she told me
You want it, gotta work your ass off before ya have fun
Gotta put your life aside to help your kids have one
This is for my sons and my daughters of the future
Dear Lord, don't let em put their hands in a computer
Or get sucked into the virus of the violence live in silence of the science
For the finest in confinement to the wildest this environment has made us to define it
We document the ways of our inferity to pry it
Buried from our hands filled with blood stains all around our drawers
Sweat inside of our hearts as we walk away
Through the doors of our next generation whatever we had in store
Echoes of our mistakes is staring straight up at our jaws
Damn, my whole life done passed Im still hanging down
South but my pants don't sag. I need a breath of fresh air when I pop those tags
And check my mail like the grades on a new rough draft
Ha last night i had a threesome
Me myself and I for one reason
New year new life time to live it up
Told em when i get my money right its time to give it up
Street soldier, bet you never thought we'd get enough
Repping for my city that's the only place I'm coming from
Street legends, only one inside my own reality
To make this world a better place no one could be your majesty
This is my living prophecy I welcome you to follow me
The battle of the modesty. I take away apologies
DAMN! Welcome to my quiet little world
From the streets of Wilmington to the city of Greensboro
I was living with my mother playing stuck with little girls
Used to blind me from the system with everything in the world
But she loved me like no other took us out of the projects
Remember when we ate we couldn't shit in the toilet
Had to keep a pistol on you lock the car as you parked it
Mama moved us out the hood and got us set in apartments
The early life was fun, normal days at the school
New kid still sitting in the back of the room
Bullies looking at you like they got something to prove
Real niggas like the vultures they attack as they move
All this money got me staring got these bitches wanna marry me
Please excuse my language, I'm looking for mental clarity
Kingdom of the Angel this is for my Royal family
Love is like a gift to share these females they can't handle me
Face down chin up can't break down what we built up
I say Face down chin up live life and never give up
These haters try to knock me down they hoping i cant sit up
I turn my back around i hope u looking in a mirror
I'm studying my thoughts and my words, they running heavy
You can tell from when I rhyme on the mic, lyrically ready
Dusting off this low battery life don't even tell me
How I'm not afraid to put up a fight go head and test me
This ain't the shit you been guessing imma answer many questions
It don't take a written scripture to decide if your a legend
As i beat the inner sections of this lethal interjection
Let me preach the needle deep inside these airhead singing lessons
Welcome to my world of vengeance
The heart of independence
How often do we nod into the lives of different women
The thought to be revived is honest as the God of living
As my haters speak in silence let the devils war be written
Young and gifted
