From The Bottom To The Top (Devz E.P) |
In 5 years time, I’ve come along way since school days |
I was in the bad books always if I wern’t at the head masters |
then mugs’ll be facing the walls in the hallways |
I spat bars in the D. O the only thing that kept me strong than, |
them same roads that feds be on, & back then if we did a crime, |
hear the sirens & like lets be gone |
Damn! |
Since they never guess a lot has changed, no it ain’t no school games |
then I’ve got a name |
Usually/Visually I’ve seen a lot of pain & back then I let beef slide |
But, I’m not ashamed |
I was only a kid then, I didn’t have no access to a big black |
stick then, now I might run up on your boys & stick them, snap 'em |
like stick men with a stick bigger than big ben |
Came from the bottom to the top I’m from a place where the kids |
threw rocks at the bottom of the blocks pushing cds' like drugs |
Got mix tape money in my socks, |
Laugh? |
Ye say its' funny is it not, mugs would of been flopped & its' |
been a whole year still waiting for your mix tape to drop so don’t |
mistake the block |
Yo' Im glad I came from the bottom to the top cause back then I didnt want to |
know, |
if I can say that I did it on my own, I’m glad I stuck to the path I chose |
Yo' Im glad I came from the bottom to the top cause back then I didnt want to |
know, |
if I can say that I did it on my own, I’m glad I stuck to the path I chose |
I’ve been from temptations |
I flavored to rings the music they sing savor sends them off laughin' |
I started them craps and barklett better yet properly kicking walls in & shit |
Them days ya taking a risk went through a glass wall |
Cut my veins in my wrist I was lucky that my main arteries got missed |
then the hospital pierced with more than just one stitch |
& They say the game is no referee that er' coulda' been the death of me |
Now I’ve got a build of a deficit, |
17 with big dreams like a roll I’ve ever been |
I’ve got hearts like I’ve never seen |
Seems impossible |
Seen where I’ve come from |
Now I’m uncrossable |
Money in a bundle |
Skanks agree scondon |
Screaming out London |
&' I pray in 4 years all writin' they put |
I’m not talent, &' back then I was writin' now |
I’m king of the titans |
I’m king of the seas like poseidon |
I looked up to the lands of the seas |
When I was o'3 when I was 13 |
My favorite Mc’s tables are turned |
Now they ain’t got nothing on me |
Come and see |
Yo' Im glad I came from the bottom to the top cause back then I didnt want to |
know, |
if I can say that I did it on my own, I’m glad I stuck to the path I chose |
Yo' Im glad I came from the bottom to the top cause back then I didnt want to |
know, |
if I can say that I did it on my own, I’m glad I stuck to the path I chose |
I remember days they didn’t know my name |
Now I’m paid & I only got myself to blame but I don’t want |
a nice watch or chain you can keep your fame |
It’s O. T to the grave then back again |
Yea I’ve just lost my job |
So, back to the roads |
Selling weed again |
He’s selling what again |
They’re selling crack again |
I’ve got ya back again |
Pure drug packaging |
Didn’t think when I was 12 or 13 the whole scene |
with your respect when he heard me glad I started |
early now I’m gonna make the whole scene prefer me |
They could hate but they could of nerved me |
I’m fixated with making the papers |
Rolling without takers with all yeh stakers |
Now ye can’t break us |
Even god forsakes as I watch all the haters |
Yo' Im glad I came from the bottom to the top cause back then I didnt want to |
know, |
if I can say that I did it on my own, I’m glad I stuck to the path I chose |
Yo' Im glad I came from the bottom to the top cause back then I didnt want to |
know, |
if I can say that I did it on my own, I’m glad I stuck to the path I chose |
Yo' Im glad I came from the bottom to the top cause back then I didnt want to |
know, |
if I can say that I did it on my own, I’m glad I stuck to the path I chose |
