Lyrics
I was a young dealer hustling
I used to be a young drug dealer working hard
The feast abundant my appetite destructive
I had abundant opportunities, but my intense desires were harmful
I don't blame the government
I don't solely blame the government for my actions
For my greed I wanted in
My greed led me to want more
God we trust with sustintence
We place trust in God for sustenance
Yet the substance wasn't covenant
But the substances I pursued weren't in alignment with divine principles
A rose in concrete grown in harsh streets
A symbol of beauty can emerge from challenging environments
Doesn't bloom in tumultuous boundaries
In difficult circumstances, growth may be hindered
Emotion commonly shows in my artistry
My emotions are often expressed through my art
It's life
Life is the inspiration for my poetry
It's only right poetry is part of me
Poetry is an inherent part of me, like my mother's DNA
Like mama DNA, I'm fulfilling prophecy
I am fulfilling a prophetic destiny
Living hit different then existing, obviously
Living is more profound than mere existence
My mind is focused and eyes are closely
I am focused and observant
Analyzing my lines like designing a sculpturе
I scrutinize my words like crafting a sculpture
A slow death is never putting lifе in motion
A slow, unproductive life is not truly living
It's wrong, move with the right composure
Wrong actions should be accompanied by the right demeanor
Society molds us
Society shapes us
Then holds us accountable for the shape we in
We are held responsible for our actions, influenced by society
Ever since they sold us
Since the time we were sold into societal structures
Nothing in life is free, considered a cost
Nothing in life is free; everything has a cost
We pay even when innocent in criminal court
We pay the price even when innocent in the legal system
People show true colors
People reveal their true nature
How blindly make excuses
We make excuses for wrongdoing, often without seeing the truth
For snakes as if embracing Medusa
People embrace deceitful individuals as if welcoming danger
Love is a house with no
Love is a place devoid of hatred's influence
Room for hate's influence
Mistakes provide opportunities for significant improvement
Mistakes open the door to great improvement
Errors open the door to valuable progress
