[Chorus]

Do they really want a true story? (Do they?)

Of me growing up in South Charlotte (Okay)

Take you the way down to Winget Park (Take you down)

Was throwing discs with my homie Charlie (Shoutout bro)

[Verse]

Dead end we grew up turned into the Garden (MSG)

Feel like Carmelo cause the way I'm balling

Homie went to Alaska because he joined the Army

Left me and his bro here it was so alarming

This about the time I was going right into college

Freshman year is right around the corner I can't acknowlеdge

Turned around said "Goodbye" to my Mama and shе said to me "Son you'll be great now Go out and be free"

[Chorus]

Do they really want a true story? (Do they?)

Of me growing up in south Charlotte (Okay)

Take you the way down to Winget Park (Take you down)

Was throwing discs with my homie Charlie

[Outro]

And I know times can get tough

And I know you ran out of love

And I know, and I know

That this can't last forever

(And I know times can get tough)

(And I know you ran out of love)

(And I know, and I know)

(That this can't last forever)
