[Intro]

I want you to feel this shit

It's me

Fivi'

Uh


[Chorus]

Look, I stayed at home fightin' my demons alone but prayin'

(Huh, watchin' how the gangstas do it)

I stayed alone, watchin' the woes in my zone, now I'm on

('Cause that's just how the gangstas do it)

Oh, I'm runnin' (Uh)

The devil took everything he wanted (Uh)

Ten toes down, I been a hunnid, uh

And every bag I get, I'm gon' run it

Look, 'cause I been drippin', and ballin', I can't give up

No I ain't slippin' or fallin', that can't be us (Nah)

Nah, that can't be us

Yeah, nah, that can't be us (Uh)


[Verse 1]

God sent signs and I read 'em (Uh)

'Cause they can't do nothin' to you unless you let 'em (Uh)

You 'posed to give 'em one chancе and then dead 'em (Uh)

Shit, I gavе 'em like seven (Yeah)

Shit, I thought they were my bredrin (Bredrin)

Destined (Destined)

They was in my heart but I cured that infection (Uh)

I could've lost it all when a nigga got arrested (Yeah)

That's why I thank God for these awards and these blessings (Yeah)

They wanna rap too 'cause they see how rap changed my life

But lightning never strikes in the same spot twice

Can I live? (Can I live?)

They said I couldn't do it, and I did (And I did)

Bitch, I'm the same Fivio Foreign since a kid (Bitch)

Bitch, I'm the same Fivio Foreign since the crib

I started shinin' and them niggas stopped comin' to my vids

I remember, nigga (I remember, nigga)

Nigga (Nigga)

Them niggas know what it is (Uh)


[Chorus]

I stayed at home fightin' my demons alone but prayin'

(Huh, watchin' how the gangstas do it)

I stayed alone, watchin' the woes in my zone, now I'm on

('Cause that's just how the gangstas do it)

Oh, I'm runnin' (Uh)

The devil took everything he wanted (Uh)

Ten toes down, I been a hunnid, uh

And every bag I get, I'm gon' run it

Look, 'cause I been drippin', and ballin', I can't give up

No I ain't slippin' or fallin', that can't be us (Nah)

Nah, that can't be us (Nah)

Yeah, nah, that can't be us, huh (Yeah)


[Verse 2]

Let me tell you what's emotional (Uh)

That they can only touch you if they close to you (Uh)

I'm a million dollar man, nigga

Look at what these vocals do (Yeah)

The first time you ever said my name, I was over you (Ha)

R.I.P. Lakeema, R.I.P. Yvette

I was raised by angel, I was taught by the best (Uh)

And when Ping went to war, they almost shot him to death

And he'd laid in my door, on the floor, by the step

It's real, nigga (It's real, nigga)

I thank God for all my real niggas (Yeah)

I pray that God give me strength so I can deal with 'em

I don't know who gon' backdoor, so I don't feel niggas

But I done been through so much pain, I start to heal quicker (Uh)

I know they mad over the 'Gram (Yeah)

Nigga, I'm mad that I ever gave you a chance

Yeah, I love this life but I'll choose my family over my fans (Any day, nigga)

Nigga, that's what make me a man


[Chorus]

I stayed at home fightin' my demons alone but prayin'

(Huh, watchin' how the gangstas do it)

I stayed alone, watchin' the woes in my zone, now I'm on

('Cause that's just how the gangstas do it)

Oh, I'm runnin' (Uh)

The devil took everything he wanted (Uh)

Ten toes down, I been a hunnid, uh

And every bag I get, I'm gon' run it

Look, 'cause I been drippin', and ballin', I can't give up

No I ain't slippin' or fallin', that can't be us (Nah)

Nah, that can't be us

Yeah, nah, that can't be us (Uh)


[Outro]

It's like

I can't even express myself to nobody 'cause

I don't know who really care for real or who really just care 'cause I'm me

So I keep my feelings to myself, uh

I do this music, though

Trying to feed my family, that's the most important part

Yeah, I like inspiring others

See, if I did it, you could do it

I came from nothing, uh

I'm the nigga they hated

They hated that I made it

Ain't finna stop this shit, though

Yeah
