[Hook:]
[Verse 1]
All of my life, It was me and the madre
Occasionally visit padre
Moved around the city way to much
New kid at school, when I ate at lunch
Solo dolo on a daily
Then I mate a fewer homies
After school started blazing
Introducing to the O.Gs
I remember living on Serrano
Those were the days, stuck in the haze
Broke as fuck but never broken
Back then I didn't notice
Place didn't have any rooms
I swear it felt just like a shed
So we would switch off for who got the couch and who got to sleep on the bed
Crazy just how much the city cost
I guess we all gotta pay the price
Moms worked three jobs so
She was always gone late at night
I used to tag in the city
Fifteen with a can of paint
Funny cause these things i never talk about
But in a song I just had to say
(woosh)
[Hook:]
[Verse 2]
Didn't have much but we had enough
I'm just glad that I always had a lunch
...
Anyways, it's a new day and i'm still alive so fuck it right?
In a lab like all the time
Just making sure that ... was tight
Look, don't confuse us with a pity party
I just really had to ventilate
Hopefully my words can get to you if you relate
I just wanna innovate
House in the hills, wanna renovate
Live good, Eat better
With a chef to clean up all the dinner plates
And best believe, he will be getting paid
Fuck you think i'm self driven for?
I think the struggle has made me
I want the things that i couldn't afford
Man I want my mom in a 'Cedes
I know its coming, i am waiting for it
Much love to my cousin, he way supportive
More than anything, man I love my fam
Damn, this song is one for the fans
[Hook:]
[Verse 3]
All day ... Hollywood
Thai town through K-Town
Used to bump up that K.dot
Before he blew up, I stayed down
Ignorance is bliss but bliss to me is garbage
Cause if I didn't see the shit I seen then I wouldn't be an artist
Funny how the dream is all the ones that never sleep huh
Business man from the jump selling beats at seventeen huh
... college, ...
Junior college, SMC
It wasn't for me, not to say that it isn't for you
It just wasn't for me
I have a different goal in mind
Wanna retire before 40
It's looking like that don't happen
Because every night i'm in the lab until 4:40...am
Big dreams, Bigger actions
All started on Serrano when I started rapping
(woosh)
