Believe Me

Oh man I wish I knew
I wish I knew it then
But that won't let it stop me
You know I'll be back again
All the mistakes I made
Troubles that I live in
It shaped me into the person you see standing here
I wish you knew me
Back when I was young
You can't see me
Just how far I come
So don't judge me
You don't know me
Please, believe me

After the 3rd grade it was all As
Fuck the 5th grade was the hard days
Detention and suspension was an always
By the time I made the high school it was the hall ways
Yeah that was the wish . it was all pay
And we were all broke that's when a lot broke
Cat catches .
Picture me back then look at me right now
Before I . the 20 thousand
I go to complicate cases I had to . down
Living in the dark I am in the light now
You . hard then you shine harder
I'm gonna ride like my last name's Carter

You don't have to listen to me
You don't have to believe a single word I say
No. that's what my mother told me
Still I run out at learned everything the hard way
I've been trying no no
Oh yeah she told me to grab up I grew up
I stood up each day I move up again
Got a minute to say what I want
I am trying to make through everything
Whatever I am right or wrong
That made me how I am
And if a I broke your heart
Well I am sorry again

Thinking back when I was in a trap
Without a dollar to my name .
Nigger said that's what I think of that
Say chance for the better I am never thinking back
Now I could be . forward
Sin is so hard I think my . harder
Take . like a fish above the water
Man I am gonna survive
I put that on my mind
Swear to God how you . if you never try
I can't see no future like I am living on my ride
Every day I am living life like I could never die
New clothes in my in my garage
New chick in the bedroom new chick by my side
New watch saying this is my time so
Don't judge me just love me
There is nothing above me
My future is so pretty so I got . ugly
