Yeah I'm young, 21, living in a crazy world But I know the difference between a man and a herb You frontin' like you got it, claim they hating on your wallet Gucci telling you the time and you watch it, Nah I ain't stunting like my daddy, he's living with my grammy Used to be a big baller, he surviving off of gambling But I love him, he's my daddy,yeah I love him hes' my daddy Put him in a big house, before I ever see a grammy And my mommy started working days at the church Finding Faith in God cause the real world hurts So much evil lurks, they just make us work But we cant find work Abuela, mami, and the girls, in a one bedroom South beach lifestyle, they just paying for the view Mommy on the couch, since she was 42 Sacrificing for the kids, cause thats what mommies do So I smoke my spliff, I spliff it hard Candy says to stop my voice is getting too harsh So I sobered up, and my thoughts they rush And now I think of you, behind bars Cross state lines, they spliffin' good In Miami you catch a charge And the whole family tears apart
