You just see the fame, You just see the glory
But you don't see the pain, That make up my story
Did u take the shots, Did u do the bid
Could you take risks to live the life that I lived
Could you live my life
My life, my life
Sounds good but did u really earn your stripes
My life, my life
Is you capping, or did u really put up that fight
My life, my life
Is you dreaming or do you really have it in sight
My life
Said my momma came a foreign land
No silver spoon chopsticks in my hand
Came from the bottom
Really made it from the sand
This is meant to be, All Part of God's plan
I done stood firm while other people ran
I done got cut, But as it stand still the man
Never been a bitch, Never been a snitch
Always been real, Always been legit
I was all alone, Had to fight for the phone
Y'all ready know the vibes, I had to put on
Always had my gun, Never been a son
Put me thru the pressure
Diamond I become
What you know about tuna fish with the noodles
Sharing with the homies, situation getting crucial
Had to make it out, Gotta stay free
Had to switch it up, But I gotta stay me
You just see the fame, You just see the glory
But you don't see the pain, That make up my story
Did u take the shots, Did u do the bid
Could you take risks to live the life that I lived
Could you live my life
My life, my life
Sounds good but did u really earn your stripes
My life, my life
Is you capping, or did u really put up that fight
My life, my life
Is you dreaming or do you really have it in sight
My life
Freedom is a must, Gotta do it for the Bros
Locked in a cell, Stuck up in a hole
Gotta put on, Gotta keep the gas
Always got ya back never needto ask
Now I got the bag, Don't know how to act
No more commissary
Now I Blow a bag at Saks
Always been a G, Always been a stack
Always had to grind, They said I wouldn't last
Now I'm at the top, But can't forget the bottom
Gutter say get em, homie I got em
Pulling up in wraiths
But we was in a cell
We was facing life
But we ain't never tell
