It was never easy
Though she prayed to God and plead
Ears almost felt like they'd bleed
Lack of patience for biblical memories
Through time, saw miracles and shootings stars
Shit I'd never seen
It must be her Allah
Shining on her like Medallia
I mean medallion
Wished for a car
Who's engine a stallion
What if I'm remembered as the guy
Who's words were astounding
Then my checks would account for my rising
Fame! Not a game if abused
Got to play it by a couple rules
Bend them if your values get misconstrued
Came in with you, stay true
Rather that, than being stabbed
I'm more focused on writing raps
Top of the goat, lift me up like a shelf
Comedic myself, but I can't take a joke
Trips to the medic for shortness of breath
Pumps for my health, Mommy did well
Living through hell we were saved by the bell
Never had to weigh no weight on the scale
We were on the move, nomadic as well
Mattapan, Randolph, Roslindale
Westie, there for like 9 years
On the move ain't nothing, we here
We'll move past the trial and error
We'll move fluid as the air
Used to want a house with stairs
Simply want a home that's there, yeah
Used to want a lot of things
Age came with simplicity
Could've lost my life in 2020
Hindsight intervened
Came in clutch cause when it matters
Nothing coming in between
What is real and what is known to show
Time and time again
Used to want a lot of things
Age came with simplicity
Could've lost my life in 2020
Hindsight intervened
Came in clutch cause when it matters
Nothing coming in between
What is real and what is known to show
Time and time again
Reck be quick
Streets too swift
Not understanding
What had went
Down that moment
Trying to own it
Hold it down
For their own set
Protect ourselves respectively
Seen what happen to Megan Thee?
No one knows what's happening
It really never had to be
Do I turn the other cheek
Risk a scar that ain't on fleek
Baby steady telling me
Scars ain't changing not a thing
Sexy as ever, black as mild
Only smoke we blow is dour
Mom dukes witnessing my power
After graduating college
Broke her heart to know I'm loud
"Santi Fo in the kay" right now
Look at us now she's more proud
Took the pain and all my frowns
Understood they wouldn't last
Steady living in the past
Making sure we don't repeat
Questioning what could've been
Used to want a lot of things
Age came with simplicity
Could've lost my life in 2020
Hindsight intervened
Came in clutch cause when it matters
Nothing coming in between
What is real and what is known to show
Time and time again
Used to want a lot of things
Age came with simplicity
Could've lost my life in 2020
Hindsight intervened
Came in clutch cause when it matters
Nothing coming in between
What is real and what is known to show
Time and time again
