Adams
C'est histoire vraie
Life is a movie, I liken it to the Matrix
Except Morpheus don't guide us and all the agents put crates of crack up in the hood
And now the engine might start to leak and turn my Brown skin Red like the natives they lied about
Grade school droppin' jewels like Selina Kyle, crackers don put my ass in timeout
Baggy daddies, all red chucks, a ruby hoodie
Use my Bic so I can emulate Quik and get a house in Leimert Park
I used to dream bout, lookin at the stars
It won't take long, infatuation wit fast cars
Fast women turn me to sinnin' but I don't judge
My Nana called it early, her girlies showin' me tiddies
Squabble up, the runt of the litter runnin' the city
If I craft a decent hook, turn this bitch up my name Timmy
Put it simply my issues be havin' a nigga tweakin'
Tryna get my shit together and keep my kid a couple seasons, nigga
If I lose my way tomorrow
Imma still try make home
If I have my shit together
Imma ease myself on down this road
Where I'm so close to my goals
I'm still holdin' on
Holdin' tight, tappin' keys
Tryna disrupt the program
A pocket fulla blue pills, poppin' em in my adolescence
Pupils dilated, perception changin' the lesson plan
Proper preparation prevent performance that got us here
A condom woulda saved my life back in '96
20s to the 40s, city filled wit regret
My momma came off Skid Row to them County Building steps
My sister turned to Crippin' kuz my daddy wasn't there
So my brother turned to music, tryna make somethin' masterful
I was in the streets, tryna prove I'm no mistake
Wit a heart of malice and my brother beat tape
Never had too many friends kuz even Indy hated snakes
Couple idols on my TV, wanna be like Blade
Sharper than tack and never scared to shoot the fade
An example for my son if I can overcome this rage
Tryna get my shit together
Please listen when I say
If I lose my way tomorrow
Imma still try make home
If I have my shit together
Imma ease myself on down this road
Where I'm so close to my goals
I'm still holdin' on
The life of a ghetto garçon, ever the optimist
Prime years slippin' away kuz time is not real
Yesterday somebody died from poverty
Poison perfectly executed by government contacts
My faith in the Five Pillars was stable and not a obstacle
Skin color, creed, and religion will make them target you
But the crosshairs bearin' down on my back are generational
F*ck Ronald Regan and the crackers that raped my Motherland
I was grippin' my mother's hand, hearin' her false promises
Honest to the man upstairs, she was a pessimist
Peddlin' negative elements evident to me
Tryna break the cycle quickly for the baby that came
Tryna mold myself into a role model wit heart kuz lost kids need love
That's the tenet we lack so I burned the village down to build back in a day
I'm tryna get my shit together so please listen wen I say kuz
If I lose my way tomorrow
Imma still try make home
(Imma still try make home)
If I have my shit together
Imma ease myself on down this road
(Down this road) Where I'm so close to my goals
(I'm so damn close) I'm still holdin' on
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
I said, "Hold on to me"
"Hold on to me"
We're so damn close
Just keep holdin' on
