[00:03.41][Chorus (Sampled): Kanye West]
[00:07.06] I'm tryna right my wrongs
[00:08.23] But it's funny them same wrongs helped me write this song, man
[00:11.59] I'm tryna right my wrongs
[00:13.95] But it's funny them same wrongs helped me write this song, man
[00:16.00[Verse 1]
[00:16.55] See, I was born into a world of food stamps and welfare
[00:19.71] No dollar for the ice cream man and nappy hair
[00:22.58] Raised by a single mom, but in the back of my mind
[00:25.58] I thought I gotta have my pops, no cereal
[00:28.27] Never had a lot, but now I got plenty material
[00:30.82] No longer do I wish for money
[00:33.06] 'Cause being broke made me stronger, harder, faster, better
[00:36.48] So now I alphabetically murder every letter, uh
[00:39.49] Feel the conviction in my words like a jail sentence
[00:42.18] Murder in the first, do a verse, won't be no repentance
[00:45.14] Mama, I'm sorry that I left at seventeen
[00:47.53] But I had to chase my dream and get this ********' cream
[00:50.44] Only people that I got is the people that's on my team
[00:53.13] 'Cause when I roll up on the scene I see everyone start to scheme
[00:55.99] Talk about they connections, talk about who they know
[00:58.57] Then they beggin' me for a feature, but I'm like "Hold up, yo
[01:01.41] If you know who you know why the **** you ain't blow?"
[01:04.04] Matter fact, you ain't **** with me this time last year though
[01:06.77] I was kicking rhymes but you ain't paid on mind or the soul
[01:09.56] And now you on my **** riding like the baddest of hoes
[01:12.78] You think it's easy but it's not, see the talent that I got
[01:15.30] Determination keep it fresh, if I don't shine then it's gon' rot
[01:18.07] 'Cause it don't happen overnight, one hit wonders don't keep the spot
[01:20.99] And I plan to hold the torch until I pass it and get shot, what
[01:25.33][Chorus (Sampled): Kanye West]
[01:25.75] I'm tryna right my wrongs
[01:26.74] But it's funny them same wrongs helped me write this song, now
[01:30.58] I'm tryna right my wrongs
[01:32.17] But it's funny them same wrongs helped me write this song, now
[01:33.99][Verse 2]
[01:34.74] See, this is dedication, running up on radio stations
[01:36.12] They would decline and in my mind they was just hatin' haha
[01:40.90] Testing my patience they got me pissed like probation
[01:43.40] But I had the mind to keep going and the heart to keep racing
[01:46.23] And as the world crumbled beneath my feet like a Haitian
[01:49.05] I was inspired by them to persevere through dedication
[01:51.79] Failure I'm never facing my lyrics is education
[01:54.57] So if you got the tape crank that s**t like Jason Statham
[01:57.40] Yeah, this is my story word by word
[01:59.93] as I'm emerging just relax
[02:00.86] and let me open your mind like brain surgeon, uh
[02:03.28] Uhh, fresh in the game they should sign me to the virgin
[02:05.60] But me and solo know that I would only get to splurgin'
[02:08.41] I see the road to success and now its time to merge in
[02:10.98] Don't forget us when you gone what my homies urging
[02:13.68] don't forget us when you gone, uhh I gotcha
[02:16.82] You see these Seinfeld rappers talking a whole lot of nothing
[02:19.68] so allow me to curve your enthusiasm or something
[02:22.25] This is kinda like M.J before his prime when he dunking
[02:25.11] cause I ain't 23 yet but when I'm there it'll be something
[02:28.73][Chorus (Sampled): Kanye West]
[02:29.52] I'm tryna right my wrongs
[02:30.75] But it's funny them same wrongs helped me write this song, now
[02:34.83] I'm tryna right my wrongs
[02:35.00] But it's funny them same wrongs helped me write this song, now
[02:38.86][Verse 3]
[02:39.43] Growing up there was baby momma drama
[02:40.59] Everyday and every way
[02:41.80] But now my kids I ain't got none to this day
[02:44.52] Cause a rubber ‘round my Jimmy when I consider foreplay
[02:47.17] Hey, back in the day West Deer Park where we stay
[02:50.09] I was running around while momma was drinking everyday
[02:53.07] But its okay I wouldn't have it any other way
[02:55.88] Cause it developed me into the young man that you see today
[02:58.82] Through dedication, yeah, yeah
[03:01.65] Never follow traditions you see I had a different vision
[03:04.28] I would skip school and write compositions
[03:06.30] 'Bout my home conditions
[03:07.32] You know the usual no money and family division
[03:10.19] In specific I remember this time in my kitchen
[03:12.93] With my sisters man back
[03:14.52] Before he went to prison and got into religion
[03:16.91] He showed me how to cook crack at 12 and I ain't kiddin'
[03:20.14] After releasing him with ba—he no longer living
[03:22.71] And I'm pretty sure his last breath was lord forgive him
[03:25.68] Now my nephew ain't got a father that'll keep him safe
[03:28.58] All I can hope is he a good boy for his mommas sake
[03:31.31] Cause she never did recover from his fathers fate
[03:34.11] And if he grew into a man that made the same mistake
[03:36.94] Well to be honest I don't know how much more she could take
[03:39.83] So to every baby momma that could truly relate
[03:42.50] it is you unto this song that I should dedicate, yeah
[00:03.41][Chorus (Sampled): Kanye West]
