I've been broke 22 years of my life Mama had two jobs, one day and at night
Double shift, the nursing home, this struggle ain't right
Four of us in one apartment just to keep on the lights
No mobility in poverty, but I be chasin' this dream
Till the end of this dream is gold and I can see what it means
Beauty in the struggle, hungry for success Been down at the bottom, I'ma be passing
This test How much do you want it, what you willing
To sacrifice
Been a man no little, nigga, after your prom night You a grown man, at 18, 21 means you too
Old For havin' no expectation, shit, my back
It be achin' Workin' stock at foot action, and my foot
It be achin' But enough of complainin', what you gonna
Do to
Fix your status in society, win the lottery probably scam, with your entire team for
The pot of greed
And I'm just lightin' up, feel my passion in my words
Sorrow in spoken word, man, I'm just lightin' up
My niggas tell me, Mike, it's comin' soon You need to chill, just lightin' up
But I won't lighten up Dreams and ambitions I need to fulfill, I
Can't lighten up
Yo, the flow majestic like some angel wings It's been a dream since my naps was in tangles
Cough medicine from playin' in the rain that's that Benadryl, it's Been a drill
For these past few years, and I can tell That the sun don't shine no more
I can tell my life is one of a kind But I'm drivin' blind, these bitches ain't shit
Some homies, ain't either Been lost in my thoughts, been trapped in
My mind And I can't find the way out
I look in the mirror, I look like my father I hate the qualities I have that I'ma carry
Over Slowly progressin', one step at a time
I truly hate when it rains, and I can't stand father time
Feel like they passin' me by Who I am, who do I wanna be
What is this entity that hovers over me Some theories about myself, ideas for the
Wealth Sufferin' success, I yet to picture myself
Losin' grip of reality, cause I'm raisin' the bar
Niggas stay playin' Gs, like the strings of guitars
More trapping for the future, less, Kendrick Lamars
This world could be yours, but it's truly yours.
Man, I'm just lighten up
Yeah, I'm just lighten up
Yeah, I'm just lighten up
Yeah, I'm just lighten up
Yeah, I'm just lighten up
