The struggle don't last, I'm living witness They tried to hold me down, but they didn't
Hard work and dedication stand on business I don't forgive, and I'm definitely not forgetting
How they left me in the cold, I was shivering Paint another picture, had to make it vivid
I would never give up, that's not in me But while my hard work got they hearts full of envy They be having bad vibe energy
Look at me now, on my shit like some depend briefs
I've been ten toes down, where the dealers be
Self-defense flow, how a nigga kill the beat
I had to learn the hard way, they a cross you up
Why they wanna get me for my paper
For everybody that I lost, I'ma go hard for you
I'm rising up from the smoke, where my lighter
When I get high, I'm touching on cloud 9 When I get high, I'm touching on cloud 9
Thoroughbred, cold heart, never scared Resurrect the hustle, but they rather hate instead
Broken homes, broken hearts, broken dreams plotting on a scheme, but on the other side the grass ain't always green Merry go round like the world spinning
I got tired of losing, so I start winning
Adapted to the street life, so I start sinning
They praying on my downfall, I pray the Lord forgive em
I can't make this up Growing up in poverty, they can't change us
Yeah them struggles hit different when you really live it
Everything got consequences, certain shit ain't mentioned
Time to spread my wings, I'm that fly I put the G in uy I'm that guy
This that marijuana flow, cloud 9 Just a vision of my thoughts running wild
When I get high, I'm touching on cloud 9 When I get high, I'm touching on cloud 9
