Do you know what it's like to not have a father no one to talk to when you get mad at your momma
I know you ain't gonna pick up the phone. I still call you. The reason that it hurts so bad I never saw you
The way my grandma be acting has got me losing hope.
I swear to God I hate to see her on and off the coke.
She said baby girl this is just the way I cope.
Man all this weight upon my shoulders just trying to stay afloat.
But no I don't want your sympathy I'm just telling ya'll
this was really really meant for me this industry. This is how it's meant to be.
That's why the labels and the TV shows yeah they keep on hittin' me.
And momma was struggling trying to keep the lights on
I had some snakes in my grass like yeah a python
It's hard to see the silver lining when the lights off
But I know one thing that I'm gonna be an icon.
Yeah. So I gotta keep pushing
People still hating on me least I know that they're lookin'
And they see me coming up so they peek through the bushes
but I'm just trying to raise awareness for the people that are lookin'. Hey Yo.
