Leave this mic here, it's always about Lecrae 'cause he went big
We knew he had somethin' in on 'em, never expected this though
And grandma said we came from Jamaica
'Cross the ocean, 'til we made it
Had?my'DNA'tested said the?
Westside of the?motherland
Is where they take us from
Never met my daddy's side so I couldn't tell y'all if I'm Zulu or Xhosa
Couldn't tell y'all how I be courtside
I made it this far without a co-sign
Of course, I struggled a lot and stayed pray, prayin'
Unforgettable, sweaty, sweaty, demons I kill these, Katie, Katie
Now I'm up, is it real life?
And when it get real I can feel Christ
Healed this branch on a family tree that was here for me
Man, it roots so deep
Self-discovery
Self discover me
Help uncover me
Help me to understand who I'm supposed to be
Not just a wannabe
[?] this is a dangerous area
Get outta my face fool!
Seen big pain, big loss, but still been big blessed
All that cap big, big, big, big, big, big, big stress
All you want big house, big car, big ice, big checks
Man I wish y'all did, did, did, did, did less
You ain't gonna be nothin', your daddy wasn't, you ain't gonna be
I knew that he always had, uh, something in him
My little cousin was hittin' me up
Man I changed all my numbers I never knew
Crazy how digits were causing division
Can't nobody get it, the revenue
Seven numbers on a smartphone
Evil cash have their lights on
I get royalties but I got loyalties, so send a bill, I'll go half on it
Half blank, half unknown
Aren't we Cheoroke to Seminole
I got PTSD runnin' through me from my kinfolk
Stress had me going AWOL
Sin got me actin' Adolf
I'm like "Hey dawg, I need days off, I'm depressed, having brain fall"
It's obvious, I'm highly blessed
I finally get to understand what a man is when he had his [?]
To get there, I was highly stretched
And I was highly stressed
I gotta deal with Bloods and Crips down [?] valley, back by [?] brown, y'all ain't gon' stress me out
Seen big pain, big loss, but still been big blessed
All that cap big, big, big, big, big, big, big stress
All you want big house, big car, big ice, big checks
Man I wish y'all did, did, did, did, did that less
