D Boy and a Dream
D Boy's Journey: Triumph Amidst Struggle
Lyrics
You got this You got this
Encouragement and self-assurance, affirming one's capabilities or strength.
Yea
Expression of agreement or acknowledgment.
Every day I feel like quitting
Feeling the urge to give up or quit.
Paranoia kicking
Experiencing intense fear or suspicion.
Walk in my shoes
Inviting someone to understand their perspective by experiencing their life challenges.
I guarantee it leave you trippin
Assurance that experiencing their life would leave others shocked or overwhelmed.
You know how many kids are eating off of what I’m flipping People that I’m help paying they tuition
Supporting multiple people financially through illicit activities and education.
Hear my parents crying up all night I just listen
Hearing the distress of parents but feeling unable to alleviate it.
Eviction notice got my pops think he failed his children
Feeling responsible for family troubles, particularly related to housing.
And every single day I just keep hearing yall opinions
Constantly subjected to others' judgments and criticisms.
Let’s see one of you make my decisions
Challenging others to make the difficult choices they face.
Didn’t ask for this life man this shit here was given
Expressing the involuntary nature of the life they've been given.
Had to muscle up quick
Having to quickly adapt and take up a strong position.
I just man my position
Accepting and managing one's role or responsibility.
Been a decade flipping work
Engaging in illegal drug dealing for an extended period.
I seen shit you don’t want descripted
Witnessing and experiencing traumatic events.
So trust me when I tell you trap shit runs deep
Asserting that involvement in illicit activities deeply influences a person's life.
I had no choice but to be great so y’all can stay judging me Just a d boy from the block who promised my mom a degree But somewhere along the way I think I fucking lost me
Expressing a desire to achieve educational success for family but feeling lost in the process.
I got cuts real deep ones that you can’t even see
Having internal emotional wounds that are not visible externally.
Take a look inside a man and see his scars from the street All I know is hustle
Understanding only the hustle and self-made success.
Self made OG
Considering oneself as a self-made, experienced individual in the criminal world.
I looked my demons in they eyes
Confronting personal demons and now having control over them.
And now they all work for me But this shit adding up
Feeling overwhelmed by accumulated problems or responsibilities.
All the shit that’s on my back Most days I wanna quit
Experiencing extreme pressure or burden, often leading to thoughts of quitting.
But real dope boys never crack
Resilience in the face of difficulties, refusing to break under pressure.
All these years of the pain
Enduring years of emotional pain and hardship.
Years moving work
Spending years involved in illegal drug trade.
Gotta hustle hard when ya family’s ya net worth
Struggling for financial stability when family is the main asset.
Even if that means that it’s a nightmare for me
Sacrificing personal comfort for the sake of family's well-being.
And did I mention yet about the paranoia in me
Dealing with intense feelings of suspicion and fear.
Every week I’m on a plane - cause my fam gotta eat
Continuously traveling to support family financially.
So I became the goat but still nobody can see
Feeling unrecognized despite significant achievements.
I worked my ass off for this shit
Working tirelessly for success without receiving acknowledgment.
I cant get one retweet
Feeling neglected or unnoticed by friends, craving their validation.
And now im fighting my own friends to even fucking like me So fuck it
Deciding to pursue goals independently without relying on others.
I do this by my mothafucking self
Asserting self-reliance and independence in their endeavors.
I don’t need no mothafucking help
Declaring the capability to manage without assistance.
Every single reup the whole reason that I grind
Highlighting the motivation behind their hard work, related to personal upbringing.
Cause since a kid
Knowing from a young age the ambition to achieve greatness.
I knew one day
Expressing the long-held belief in becoming the best in their field.
I’d be the greatest of all time
Hoping to achieve unparalleled success.
D Boy and a Dream I just pray I get Mine
Striving for success while acknowledging the challenges and uncertainties.
...
(Empty line)
I just took my mask off So yall can finally see Me
Revealing one's true self to others, allowing them to be seen authentically.
