I was raised by momma with no guidance from my father
He never came around cause all we do is fight and argue
Used to spend them holiday and summers with him often
But as I got way older all I'd do is cause him problems
The volumes high in my headphones I get lost in
The music I play softens the reality that darkens
It seems the life I live has me coming short on options
So sick of this rat race and lack of space in this apartment
Catch me out at Southfield we stayed running through the breezeway
I never knew no different see that welfare had no lead way
We stood in line the center gave us cheese that last like three days
We tore stamps from books sometimes the bills we paid would be late
We spent nights no lights and not because the switch or relay
Phone was out of service couldn't call my friends on three way
Momma tried her best we'd misbehave and take what she'd lay
Could've of been a belt a hand a switch she'd swing it each way
Often we'd ignore whatever discipline that she'd say
Lessons were mistakes that we had to relearn each day
We'd do what we wanted no regard no care see back then
I was boosting clothes to keep up with the latest fashions
Dabbling in drugs might've tried to move some packs in
Learned to cook up dope the house all smelt like burning plastic
I did what I had to when them times became so drastic
Hate to work the factory never thought I'd make it rapping
Spent too much no backing seems the math was never mathing
Raps had too much capping the return was merely fractions
Too busy chasing after trifling women bout that action
Should've lost it all though I'm so grateful for what happened
I'm trying to break this curse the generational attachment
The longer it stays latched in makes it worse and that just facts and
Grew up with so little I thought poor was like an accent
Refuse to settle back into old habits time for action
Gave my life to Christ and he removed all the distractions
Placed my feet on solid ground and now I've gained more traction
My souls was settlement for the accord and satisfaction
And I know the reward is in the form something absent
Something more eternal seems like heavens the attraction
My family's my support and for them their ain't slacking
I'm trying to break this curse to where it never can come back in
The longer is around its more than likely it could happen
It's time to change the outcome as we seek after adaption
Give it all to God so we can watch him work his magic
