Got a lot on my conscience (Uh) Startin´ to feel like if I keep runnin´, I´ma run out of options (Yeah, hey) Switch the way I´m steppin´, every move I make a little more cautious, uh So every relationship I get in, it get a little more toxic (Toxic, baby) Yeah, baby, huh I wish the younger me could see me now
I wish my grandmama could see me now I know them old bitches would still be down But on the low, they´d love to see me drown Better watch my temper, that´s what turn me to the old me If not for me, then for my dawgs that came before me That´s why I grind, it´s up to me to tell they story Gon´ keep on shinin´ ´til the day they can´t ignore me
Even with the money and the power (Money and the power) Still won´t respect you (Still won´t respect you) And this world gon´ test you Oh, wish somebody told me
You can´t forget where you started (Forget where you started) That´s still where your heart is (Still where your heart is) This life is a blessing (Yeah, ADÉ) Blessing, blessing (Man)
Take me back to Castle Boulevard Young, dumb and full of heart A drive you couldn´t put in park A crew you couldn´t pull apart Rap was fun and somethin´ more Ain´t know the play was still was sure Those the times I won´t forget Those the times when it was pure Now this Porsche come with a cost and it ain´t money
Look, the game ugly It hurt when I learned it ain´t for me Trust me, the politicin´ worth a few figures But they talkin´ down like, I don´t know, people who shoot niggas Shit is backwards Beats and backwoods how I vent Speak my mind, how you take it´s exactly how I meant Take your time, young nigga, take your time Is what I say to myself Tryna play all these cards that I been dealt Are you shittin´ me? Boy, what´s on me´s also in me, so I´m Gucci Don´t think you got taste just ´cause you bit me, truthfully I hope that I find a woman that fit me And that my bundle of joy ain´t with a bundle of Brittany
Even with the money and the power (Hahaha, money and the power) Still won´t respect you (Uh, still won´t respect you) And this world gon´ test you (Yeah) Oh, wish somebody told me You can´t forget where you started (Forget where you started, damn) That´s still where your heart is (Still where your heart is, real one ´til I´m done) This life is a blessing (That´s on everything) Blessing, blessing
