Maybe it's the way i was raised
The things I've seen is so different from the way its been played,
My perspective on life alone was much to much for most
Though I was comfortable as a floor mink coat
Tappin' them pink gators with every step, you know
When ya game so sure you don't worry bout no ref
Aw man those were the days
Definitely a different page, long gone that distant stage
When chicks were pawns, shrimps were prawns
Night fall turned into dawns, I was that guy, Yeah I was him
Wait, wait I am him
But nowadays my floss don't cost as much
But don't get it twisted that Audi scream Saudi in any language, Yet and still
Without that Aston Martin the old me vanquished
Felt like God came down on me just before I can handle it
You know the saying,
It's like he showed me the real me all I can do is start praying
Evil is what I was becoming
Soul crushing is what I was drummin'
That is until he came and changed me
Back under his wing it felt like he had renamed me
I see the world clear and can address the mirror
Never be ashamed of who I am today, I have found my way
Never to be led astray because in this game, It'll cost ya
And i can't afford it
I'd rather Honda Accord it before I make my unborn son an orphan leavin' him to be raised by these scorpions
While the good in me stays dormant, Naw
Naw I won't have it
You see, being me feels pretty dang good I must admit
I've came to far to go back now, I mean, I'll never forget
Nor will I submit
My trials My woes My set backs My goals
I'm sayin' the good thing is I'm still here
Who knows what tomorrow will bring
Or what my sorrows may cling
I laughed now cause, I kinda figured it out
Which is funny cause now all they do is try to figure me out, Crazy right? Not really
This was the day I took my "Chains Off"
