[Chorus:]
|
Y'all now in the place to be and you rocking with the H-O-P,
|
Imma tell y'all a story of mine about how the lord put the weight on me (that's right),
|
Y'all now in the place to be and you rocking with the H-O-P,
|
Pay attention closely to my story (alright)
|
|
[Verse 1:]
|
Mami never had shit, neither did pa,
|
And that's exactly that he beat her a lot,
|
So shit, as a kid I had to be a cheater and rob,
|
Dealing with the consequences of me getting caught,
|
Life appear to be cool when I was young cause I didn't notice things,
|
Rent was paid every month with no problems so it seems,
|
And as I got older I went controlling things,
|
Then I start to notice that shit ain't the way its 'posed to be,
|
Come to find out we've been up and away,
|
My ma feeling like she got a knife stuck in the gut,
|
And dad tripping out for no reason cussin and stuff,
|
I'm trying hard sucking it up like fuck it its us,
|
And Christmas in the house was not that popular,
|
Cause all we ever receive was socks and boxes,
|
My friend got a power ranger toy and a megazoid,
|
It was official market on our fucking family four,
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Y'all now in the place to be and you rocking with the H-O-P,
|
Imma tell y'all a story of mine about how the lord put the weight on me (that's right),
|
Y'all now in the place to be and you rocking with the H-O-P,
|
Pay attention closely to my story (alright)
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
When I was 17 my dad moved out,
|
He refused to try help for us get a brand new house,
|
So that just me, my mom and my sister,
|
And it was up to me to be the man to polish our future,
|
We was slowly falling apart,
|
I felt the pain all in my heart,
|
When my mom would go and crawl in the dark,
|
And cry lungs out cause she knew that our time was up now,
|
I ain't know how to deal with none of it I was strung out,
|
Finally my 18th birthday hit,
|
I would had left,but I had to help her pay rent,
|
My homies got their own place, they living very nice,
|
Sipping on some Bugatti and throwing parties every night,
|
They mom buying cars, new 3-50 Z's,
|
Well my moms in debt, at least 50 G's,
|
That means I have to work harder just to get by,cause if I don't we'll be struggling for the rest of our lives, FUCK!
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Y'all now in the place to be and you rocking with the H-O-P,
|
Imma tell y'all a story of mine about how the lord put the weight on me (that's right),
|
Y'all now in the place to be and you rocking with the H-O-P,
|
Pay attention closely to my story (alright)
|
|
[Verse 3:]
|
God I gave my trust to you, but I hate my fucking life,
|
Nothings right its cold in my world, its never summer time,
|
It is a test giving me this mediocre lifestyle,
|
If imma get then it needs to happen right now,
|
I'm one week away from jumping off a cliff,
|
Or putting heat up to my head, and then dumping of a cliff,
|
I know you think I'm just lying, cause last time I stood next to a cliff side, I bitched out but imma do it this time,
|
Man forget, we both know I'm not,
|
I just say that stupid shit cause I'm so low on gaup,
|
But for real tho, god man you have to help me out, cause I know the road I'm rolling on is not a healthy route,
|
From now to back to the day I was a little kid, shit didn't brighten up a little bit,
|
Now wouldn't you be a little pissed if this was you,
|
Yeah I'm cursing this the truth,
|
Looks like imma have to resort to violence to get the loot,
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Y'all now in the place to be and you rocking with the H-O-P,
|
Imma tell y'all a story of mine about how the lord put the weight on me (that's right),
|
Y'all now in the place to be and you rocking with the H-O-P,
|
Thank you for listening to my story (alright)
