[00:00.880]
[00:13.880]
[00:25.880] I remember wakin' up, bein' broke but still it wasn't breakin' us
[00:34.880] I remember why I broke the rules, cause I ain't really have nobody to look up to
[00:42.880] I remember cuttin' class, bein' bad, cause I ain't have what them other kids had
[00:48.880] I remember wishin' that I knew my dad, then I remember wishin' I could get him back
[00:54.880] For every night that he told me he was comin' and he didn't, for every single dollar that my mama 'nem was missin'
[01:03.880] For every thing I wanted and was told I couldn't get it, and that I had to face it that my daddy was addicted (damn)
[01:10.880] That's right it wasn't easy growin' up, mama was exposin' us to life as she knew it
[01:16.880] So we all went through it, I remember bein' down and out, sleepin, on my homie's couch
[01:22.880] In & outta trouble ever since my mama put me out
[01:26.880] Damn it's gettin real, Damn it's gettin real
[01:29.880] Didn't graduate, I'm thinkin damn I gotta deal
[01:32.880] So I hit da block, sellin rocks just to eat a meal
[01:35.880] So I grabbed da Glock, kept it cocked..Peace is being STILL
[01:40.880] In da back of da tracks, my nigga's stayed wit da packs
[01:43.880] And if a nigga was schemin', my brotha stayed with tha gat
[01:46.880] Yea, yea we stayed in da trap, yea everyday in da trap
[01:51.880] These ho's was chasin' da cheese, so we would stay wit da rat's
[01:55.880] And we was ridin down, dippin low, I stayed in da back
[01:58.880] In the X5 stuntin, we ain't know how to act
[02:03.880] Spendin' money like it's nothin, cuz we gone get it back
[02:05.880] 17 never thought that I'd be gettin dem racks, had a dream but I said I wasn't fuckin' wit that
[02:13.880] Mel told me I would make it, I ain't fuckin wit that.. but he told me that it wouldn't hurt to give it a try
[02:20.880] Hardest thing out in New Orleans never see 25
[02:23.880] Right then I woke up, broke out, told my nigga's had to roll out, moved to the A and got motivated,that inspiration don't run out
[02:31.880] Heard my brother got gunned down and it hurt me to my heart, So I kept grindin', I kept pushin', he told me to go far
[02:38.880] So I can't stop at no crib, can't stop at no car, Gotta. Keep. Goin. Like there ain't no tomorrow
[02:45.880] So I'm goin hard everyday, til I got nothin' to say, nothin' can stand in my way, I gotta stay, to show my nigga's a different way (waaayyy)
[02:54.880] I'mma tell da truth and da whole truth, Cuz there ain't no need to lie
[03:01.880] And I ain't tryna keep it all inside, So I gotta TESTIFY
[03:05.880] For you and I , I TESTIFY TESTIFY,
[03:09.880] I'mma tell da truth and da whole truth, Cuz there ain't no need to lie
[03:15.880] And I ain't tryna keep it all inside, So I gotta TESTIFY
[03:19.880] For you and I , I TESTIFY I TESTIFY,
[03:23.880] I'mma tell da truth and da whole truth, Cuz there ain't no need to lie
[03:28.880] And I ain't tryna keep it all inside, So I gotta TESTIFY
[03:34.880] For you and I , I TESTIFY I TESTIFY,
[03:37.880] I'mma tell da truth and da whole truth, Cuz there ain't no need to lie
[03:44.880] And I ain't tryna keep it all inside, So I gotta TESTIFY
[03:48.880] For you and I , I TESTIFY I TESTIFY, I TESTIFY
[03:54.880]
