Before we had it Before we had it We had a dream Of being the baddest Oh before we had it Weeks of struggle and practice We never did panic Stuck to the vision while we're short handed Oh before we had it Know that we had to have it We doubled down and believed and wish for things they said wouldn't happen Oh but we made um happen Oh they can imagine Before we had it Before we had it they came to C But we ain't the average Yeah we was poor but we had a passion We had the drive but it's so much traffic I don't go out I'm stuck in the shack Down to a penny that Orlando Magic Papers all on the mattress All of my thoughts being scrambled Can't make a play in my head Cuz I don't understand how why we ain't living lavish Tryna keep all my family away from the curse You know the one where you can't move ahead Jail beds or you dead in a hurst Gotta be the one to settle them first So I'm set on the work Knew i always wore my heart on my sleeve You can still smell the sweat on my shirt Before the life man I was living lean Married to the grind I never cheated Made sure that I practice what I preached Now I'm watching all these blessings come to me Back in day we was always crazy Struggle wit the pain but it really made me They ain't ever thought that rap would pay me But I'm getting racks can't it phase me Losing my faith I was losing patience Momma always told me that the world was crazy 9-5 Job I was steady slaving Getting low pay but it motivate me So I started rapping I been at it I been trynna give back to mom for the way she raised me Now my songs getting heard round the world but I remember them days they would never play me Running outta time I gotta make it No time for waiting fuck a job ion want no occupation Plus a bitch stole my heart confiscated, life complicated So I started smoking I'm an addict uh Sorry but it turned into a habit uh They ain't ever believed me so I told em just watch like a patek I ain't wanna be dramatic I remember days I was suicidal Losing all my hope like where do I go Looking in the mirror like it's inside you Did a couple songs started viral
