When it was just a dream y'all by any means
A thin line between love and hate friends and enemies
Are come ups from the gutter man that's really how we live
Born and raised growin up we the ghetto kids
So I can spend my lifetime writing rhymes
And we can reminisce but never press rewind
Or we can spend a lifetime of sacrifice
And throw it all away just for the right price
Showin and provin really nothing that we losin true
Cause most don't ever want to see you get the W
Livin and breathing no sleep for the evening
No rest for the wicked until God punch my ticket
Verses and chorus man we living and we dying for it
Never know handouts nobody doing nothing for us
Needle to the arm like the pen to the pages
This is dedicated to the ones that never made it
When it was a dream y'all by any means
And we've been on a grind that you never seen
Losin aint an option hustling in my blood stream
Livin and breathing no sleep for the evenin
Yo gave a dollar got a nickel back
Flipped it made a G you tryna borrow it ill hit you back
Warrior path my fruits of labor is breath
They act like they slicing my neck by not repaying respect
I'm rocket boost riff been nice since knockin boots hit
Keeping it tight dispute hype for Dr. Seuss shit
I live it see it and write it they love it hate it or bite
I spit it for me and mines and the underrated or smittened
Took it in stride rise make it bump, amaze and enlighten
Its art I'm winnin yall niggas are soft as cake with the piping
So while you quote Dave Chappelle and old gangster movies
I spit dope bang some bells then go lace a hooptie
I do me get in my way you might catch A two piece
New Year new you, every day I'm a new me
My mood be, I'm eatin that's a win
Defeat is when you concede to a peak and think that's the end
That's where I begin
When it was a dream y'all by any means
And we've been on a grind that you never seen
Losin aint an option hustling in my blood stream
Livin and breathing no sleep for the evenin
