All I set out to do was get some food
And some rent money to
Go tell the truth the vocal booth was my sanctuary
I spent endless hours in there
I was so contreart damn I tell my boy nick to stop

Man that wasnt it so lets take it from the top
But being in here beats running from the cops
And swallowing rocks so I dont get caught
Knocked then locked, cuffed then booked
And in the mean time court cases got me shooked

What they going to whats going to be the out
Come in the meantime I'm going to cut
Another hour how come poor people never get
Aqquitted the mother fuckers say you did it then you did it
The next thing you know your being sentenced
Snoody ass fugitives psh good ridence

Bitches you dont know how my life
Is you aint ever had to live like this
Made front of my off brand no name
High tops my people couldnt afford nike's
And reeboks but you aint about to pick on me mann
My family doing the best we can
Goodbye, I never hustled to get high hustled
To survive this is my life

The road I came down was a bumpy
One through the middle of no where
Old country one resting my feet
Where so confident
I knew my work wasnt done for nothing

People said id never live to be grown
Before id turn 18 id probley be gone
Instead I'm in the cemetry talking to a stone feeling all alone some purple? Or some northern lights
But my grand mamma says theres more to life
Then in good times I sit down to write a good rhymes
And wrote a joint thats every bit of a good dime
So stressed I try to ease my mind
Mamma said baby thats the way to do it

Just call me some time
Id be so sick of trying most men would've
Coward out and just started crying I'm facing
God so strong he wont leave me alone
Gave me a mind to think with to feet
2 Stand on 1 hand to wright with 2 hands
To fight with wrote a song bout my life it goes like this

The road I came down was a bumpy one
Through the middle of no where old country one
Resting my feet where so confident
I knew my work wasnt done for nothing

Gun shot traviling through my small town
Seemed like slow mo when that little girl fell down
Sad thing is it wasnt even a stray they just
What baby then blew her away they said
It was sort of gang ignitation they were
Trying to display loyalty and dedication
Why didnt yall shoot ademo, me, red or jazz
Cause you mother fuckers know we woulda killed ya ass

As a kid went to school cause he knew lunch
Was free and all they eva did for me was taught me
To read hwo to write add & subtract
How many grams was in a ounce of crack
How many ounces in a pound
How many ounces in a kilogram so what
If I fail dont no body give a damn feel
So solo came in the world dolo and thats
Why I'm going to go so

The road I came down
Was a bumpy one through the middle
Of no where old country one resting my feet
Where so confident I knew my work
Wasnt done for nothing
