2
We sending this one out right here
3
To all the young thug and young hustlers out there
4
You know I'm sayin', grown up with their moms strugglin'
5
In the hood yo' I'm sayin', ya know how it is
6
Trying to keep it tight, you know I'm sayin'
7
Geah
8
Born and raised a black youth, no happy days
9
My moms and pops went they separate ways
10
Now she solo with half the dough, and three kids
11
No house, a damn tight situation we in
12
Hit the streets to look for work and pay
13
So her kids can have it better than she had one day
14
Try to teach me some rules, "Get A's in school
15
Keep your head up high and don't run with the fools"
16
That was the lesson, always listen to moms
17
Bible she totin, always quotin from Psalms
18
Young but I'm knowin' the right thang to do
19
Know the things to say when times is blue
20
Times is hard and really unfortunate
21
I'm young and I really don't like the shit
22
But I dream nice things when I sleep at night
23
When I grow up I'll make everything alright
24
Sing
25
[SOULTRE]
26
I know it's hard sometimes
27
But if you can make a way, you need to hold up
28
I know a better way
29
And if you can wait today it'll be alright...

31
Now I'm 15, my life done hit a split screen
32
What used to be a good kid struck a bad gene
33
Bad dreams, young thugs and crime scenes
34
Skip school, saggin' my jeans and blow green
35
My moms don't know where I get the shit from
36
If you keep trippin' you know the outcome
37
Laid up somewhere, or in jail
38
Makin' collect calls tryin' to make bail
39
Hell, and you know how I struggle for the cheddar
40
Before I give it away better get it together
41
My guilty conscience sayin' not no listen
42
The other have tellin' me, keep a good intention
43
Aw shit, a nigga need a mind of his own
44
Too much to deal with, I really don't feel shit
45
Young thug ready to take on the world
46
Who made my life take such a twirl
47
Come on
48
[Chorus]
49
Now my situation's changed, no chains remain
50
Now I try to check out the game and cause pain
51
Long live the days of homeboys and straps
52
Gang of tombstones for the ones that caught caps
53
Make snaps off raps, reminiscin' of days
54
Good part is shot up while 'More Bounce' plays
55
Missin the days sometimes, but keeps my eyes on the future
56
Keep my hands on my heat cause niggas might shoot ya
57
Rob a nigga blind, just like Stevie
58
I used to do the same when a nigga was greedy
59
But my come-up was wrong, flipped it, now it's strong
60
Now I clocks snaps, keep the street shit in my songs
61
Trying to make it up on a stage from doin' a bid
62
Trying to make a better way like she did for my kids
63
Right now watch out, keep my nose to the grind
64
Yeah boy, this world is mine
65
Geah
66
[Chorus]
