This for the sons with no father figures in their life/
This for the baby mothers who never gon be a wife/
This for the daughters who lost their innocence to the streets/
This for the brothers in them trenches where it ain't no peace/
I forgot to call & check on you like i was ‘posed to/
I forgot to help you take some weight off yo shoulders/
I forgot to give you love when that's what you lacked/
I forgot to pray for you when the Devil attacked/
I really wish that i could take away all of your stressing/
I really wish that i could turn your pain into blessings/
I really wish i could deliver you from all the drama/
I really wish that i could heal you, from all yo trauma/
I'm finding balance, tryna learn how to love better/
Tryna make life for the ex-cons and thugs better/
We underdogs and outcasts, we love pressure/
This deeper than a rap song, this a love letter
Hook:
I apologize for the way the world made me
I turned my back on your attention, should've gave it to my baby
Seen a lot wrong and blamed it on the devil
Pain the only thing the streets ever gave me
I seen em put that dirt on top of you with shovels
Lord knows I had the chance, you'd be right with me
V.2
I got a heart full of tears
i just ain't cried yet/
My uncle told me that we're dead, we just ain't died yet/
We in a spiritual war; mentally i'm gettin tired/
Playing chess against myself, trying not to root for either side/
it's depressing when i'm passing thru my block/
I done took so many losses, i lost my way to the top/
The streets had me in a dark place that was sunken/
Too young to realize, i was functioning in dysfunction/
Everybody was thuggin; cngry, Viiolent, & Broke/
been sleepin on me forever, steady claiming they're woke/
It was rare that i spoke, constantly losing hope/
Laughing to keep from crying so it was often we joked/
Let's go. Cuz time after time i done been denied/
But i ain't got nothin to lose, so i ain't got no pride/
Grew up way too fast, everything was exposed to us/
We gon just keep showing up until this world notice us/
