[Intro]
Yeah
You know, people always asking me what's the key to success
What's my key to success
And I just tell 'em it's simple, it's prayer and God, hard work, perseverance
It's all food for thought but you know, before you eat you gotta bless the food, right?
Everything I ever prayed for I got it
[Verse 1]
Look, tattoos on my ribs of bible scriptures
I always knew what God had for me
I'm still fighting demons, shit like mortal combat to me
Fuck friends, I need more shooters
My losses turned me to a sore loser, cut from a differеnt cloth you a poor booster
Can't see my worth 'less you know me wеll, from a lonely hell, to make it, I was the holy grail
Responsibilities play stoners, we was only twelve
Missing school to babysit your siblings and doing ponytails
I keep it sleek, a pair of jeans and sneakers
To reach my dreams, but because of my ambition
I don't sleep in peace, I got dreams and visions
My passion: poet, but it's tricky when your ambition don't match your focus
Murder was my obsession and nurture was not the message
Heart of a sinner with thoughts of a devil with God's complexion
They tell Me "Ché, fix your appearance, add sharper dresses"
Biggie lyrics, but in the mirror it's Pac's reflection, Yeah
These rappers can't get the crown until we give up
Never trust a team member that always agree with you
Or a grown ass women that's trying to beef with you
Or a forty plus nigga still trying to be s street nigga
I was school for this back when the biggest rapper was Ludacris
My pen was doing Voodoo tricks, I cut 'em off, held a grudge
I won't lose my grip, kept my foot 10 toes, rather I lose or win
Facts
[Outro:]
The voice of the people stuck with no choices that's legal
Disgusted by the way the system poison my people
Pray to God every day 'cause I enjoy what is evil
So used to drama in my life, so I destroy what is peaceful
Only thing we strive for is comfortable living
I come straight up outta struggle so my hunger is different
Turn my struggle to a hustle, build the empire from it
Turn my struggle to a hustle, build the empire from it, right?
