Give Me Wings
At one point I felt cursed, inside I was emotionally hurt
Hearing rumors about Mama lifting her skirt.
I swear to God it hurt, but I still continue to put in work
And I'ma milk this fucking life for what it's worth.
Ever since my date of birth, I felt worthless to this world.
Maybe Daddy would have loved me if I was his little girl!
I got two sisters who he raised and he loved with a passion; they're his daughters
My life wasn't worth much more than a quarter....but times changed.
My uncle was an alcoholic, spening nights out on the curb.
My other uncle hustled crack, now he's giving God's word.
It ain't too late to change now, that's how I think
And I can be a good man if You just give me the strength
Or give me the knowledge it takes, cuz I don't trust no n*ggas.
I learned the hard way, you can't fuck with most n*ggas.
From ages 17-25, you can't love a bitch; just focus on trying to get rich.
And I'm trying to get rich, so at 26 I can be on the Pacific getting seasick
With cats that I rapped and made beats with.
Drinking Heineken on an island (and I don't drink beer),
High as hell and I don't smoke, so I can't think clear. LORD!
Lord, please show me what I need to see
And place me where I need to be to be what I wanna be
It's like every day it's getting harder and harder to breathe
It's hard to succeed from the streets and find your destiny.
(C'mon & give me wings) See, you gave me the talent to write these flows
And to perform at these shows, so I'ma blow!
(C'mon & give me wings) My left wing's Feature, my right is CYPH-LOW
So I'm just asking you to show me where to go.
