Lyrics : Against the Grain
I hadn't seen the sunshine, I hadn't seen the rain
With the many good times that [?] pain
Too many of my homies died, wish that I could say
For every one that crossed me, it'll never be the same
They know who they are, I'll never drop a name
Just know that what you did got me where I'm at today
Learned a lot of lessons, [?] a lot of game
Now they all respectin' how I moved against the grain
Even through the hate and the despise, we still hittin'
Not surе how we made it, but like Nas, it was writtеn
Overcame the odds stacked against me from the beginning
So many homies died in this trap we call the mitten
Kept faith in my path, and y'all laughed at my vision
Not knowing that my destiny was gassed by my ambition
Not showing cast the prophecies, an everlasting mission
Not going off of what y'all see, but take a chance to listen
That someone built a legacy that ain't no one forgettin' (Tell them)
Kept growin' off my clarity and made it a religion (Clear)
So these devils, ain't no scarin' me, they only competition (Yeah)
All these levels just preparing me, I learn through repetition (Yeah)
Holdin' my position, representin' friends that's missin' (For you)
I do it for my kids and all my hustlers in the kitchen ([?])
And homies doin' life in prison, names I can't mention (Who?)
Just know I love you all for helpin' (Woo) dreams come to fruition
With the many good times that [?] pain
Too many of my homies died, wish that I could say
For every one that crossed me, it'll never be the same
They know who they are, I'll never drop a name
Just know that what you did got me where I'm at today
Learned a lot of lessons, [?] a lot of game
Now they all respectin' how I moved against the grain
Even through the hate and the despise, we still hittin'
Not surе how we made it, but like Nas, it was writtеn
Overcame the odds stacked against me from the beginning
So many homies died in this trap we call the mitten
Kept faith in my path, and y'all laughed at my vision
Not knowing that my destiny was gassed by my ambition
Not showing cast the prophecies, an everlasting mission
Not going off of what y'all see, but take a chance to listen
That someone built a legacy that ain't no one forgettin' (Tell them)
Kept growin' off my clarity and made it a religion (Clear)
So these devils, ain't no scarin' me, they only competition (Yeah)
All these levels just preparing me, I learn through repetition (Yeah)
Holdin' my position, representin' friends that's missin' (For you)
I do it for my kids and all my hustlers in the kitchen ([?])
And homies doin' life in prison, names I can't mention (Who?)
Just know I love you all for helpin' (Woo) dreams come to fruition
