| (my story)
|
| went from dancin' on table tops
|
| to makin' labels pop
|
| for tha love of tha money
|
| so i could cop everything
|
| from icy rings to drop tops
|
| now i’m on top
|
| but to look back on my reality
|
| happy i stopped lettin' niggas rule my world
|
| impressed by niggas tryin' to school this baby girl
|
| i was fuckin too early
|
| 15 knowin' money was green
|
| puffin' too early
|
| body big not grown
|
| knowledged up too early
|
| thought it was cute to flirt with older cats
|
| up in they face
|
| didn’t have a daddy so i put a daddy in the space
|
| my mommy was my shelter but i broke free
|
| learnin' that the streets was harder
|
| than i thought they’d be
|
| wantin' to be grown- rebellin'
|
| ain’t no tellin where i’d be- pussy sellin'
|
| never would i
|
| instead i wore a g-string
|
| thought never could i
|
| thougth i had to to be grown beginning of my life

|
| oooooohhhhhh
|
| heaven only knows (heaven only knows)
|
| heaven only knows (heaven only knows)
|
| yo closed my self down held myself in
|
| exposed my myself alone no one helpin'
|
| what am i to do but cryin' on that night
|
| no one in the house knew tv was my life
|
| who was i to tell and what would they think of me
|
| no one understood the pain that was sent to me
|
| broke down from the things men would say to me
|
| sellin; |
| dreams to a naive kid- i blame me
|
| but i never really had someone to tell me what to do
|
| teach me that i’m better than just pussy that’s true
|
| teach me that the future was written already waitin'
|
| so respect myself and life not to be consumed with hatin'
|
| do positive and positive would happen
|
| stay positive and positive was rappin'
|
| it was like my brain was clouded with unneccessary shit
|
| but i chose to see through the negative and make hits
|

|
| yo yo now i’m 20 years old and look where i’m at
|
| i thank the lord every day and pray theres no turnin' back
|
| i wannna keep my family happy and that’s that
|
| see tears in my mother’s eyes from platinum placks
|
| see things that i’ve done i don’t regret
|
| i just learn from mistakes in the past knowin' that
|
| i had to earn respect and earn trust
|
| in school was never given
|
| the way you find out about life is simply livin
|
| to be strong stay strong let nobody crush you
|
| your body is your temple young girls
|
| don’t let him touch you
|
| he’ll respect anything you say if he really loves you
|
| don’t settle for second let him put no one above you
|
| i did a lot of things in my life i take back
|
| gotta take from the good and the bad collect that
|
| cause it helps to build who you see now respect that
|
| young black and strong keep me in your tape deck
