Damn, a boy became a man in the blink of an eye, life moving fast, hard to enjoy, *** what they think we all die, they say the jungle's where I'm from, babies raised like wolves, when I was 12 had to run, as bullets grazed my school, they kill the humble where I'm from, babies praise these fools, but Mama son, gone watch his tongue, then I break these rules, sleep with a girl, but feel alone but cause every night fighting loudly , naw I aint hear to save the world, but just like Christ they gone doubt me, Sam sang it, can't contain it, yeah I'm ready for change, forget me not thought my Pops, wish he saw Django Uchained, imagine crying every night, but still stay brave, for all he know, now just crying is a fight, cause he stayed strong throughout Chemo
I'm tryna make all my decisions like my Mama deserve it, birth probably wasn't in her vision, listen Mama you perfect, and if I never do a thing, I'm gone show you my dreams, don't always do the right thing, but words to write the right scene, another chick who wearing lace, and yeah she want me to see, I push click, and keep pace, for you I chase this degree, my brother died as a child, couldn't make it to manhood, I miss my lil smile, when he was up to no damn good, people think they know it all, and most not even a clue, think I'm out here having balls, and I'm just thinking bout you, my girl thought that I was stalling started playing detective, Mama you called, told me you love me, put it all in perspective
