Lyrics

Yo, I was blind to the truth, caught in the game, Chasing fast money, bringing my momma shame. But life hit hard, made me see it all clear, This my story, real talk, no fear. Streets had me hooked, I was lost in the mix, Flipping packs, chasing stacks, thought I was slick. Momโ€™s at home praying, tears in her eyes, While Iโ€™m out here wildinโ€™, living through lies. She said, โ€œBoy, this ainโ€™t you, whereโ€™s the kid I raised?โ€ But I shrugged her off, stuck in my ways. Too deep in the hustle, blinded by the cash, Burning every bridge, moving too fast. Friends were fake, they fed me the hype, Kept me in the dark, had me living that life. Till I hit rock bottom, staring at the floor, Realized my choices left mom at war. I was chasing the bag, but I lost my soul, Breaking mommaโ€™s heart just to play my role. Now I see the light, had to make that shift, Cut the fake ones loose, now Iโ€™m building a gift. Put the weight down, left the streets behind, Picked up a pen, started speaking my mind. Music saved me, gave me a new lane, Turned my pain into power, broke out the chains. Mommaโ€™s smile came back when I cleaned up my ways, Told her, โ€œIโ€™m sorry for the hell I gave.โ€ Now my circleโ€™s tight, only real ones ride, No more snakes in the grass, just truth by my side. The block donโ€™t love you, itโ€™ll eat you alive, Had to learn the hard way just to survive. Now Iโ€™m spitting for the kids who are trapped like I was, Telling them to rise up, leave the fake love. I was chasing the bag, but I lost my soul, Breaking mommaโ€™s heart just to play my role. Now I see the light, had to make that shift, Cut the fake ones loose, now Iโ€™m building a gift. Yo, lifeโ€™s too short to waste on the street, Find your truth, let the music speak. For every mom out there praying tonight, Your kid can come back, just like I found the light
