[Chorus] oh man I wish I knew I wish I knew it then But that won’t let it stop me You know I’ll be back again All the mistakes I made Troubles that I live in It shaped me into the person you see standing here I wish you knew me Back when I was young You can’t see me Just how far I come So don’t judge me You don’t know me Please, believe me After the 3rd grade it was all As Fuck the 5th grade was the hard days Detention and suspension was an always By the time I made the high school it was the hall ways Yeah that was the wish .. it was all pay And we were all broke that’s when a lot broke Cat catches …. Picture me back then look at me right now Before I .. the 20 thousand … I go to complicate cases I had to .. down Living in the dark I am in the light now You .. hard then you shine harder I’m gonna ride like my last name’s Carter
… [Chorus]
You don’t have to listen to me You don’t have to believe a single word I say No. that’s what my mother told me Still I run out at learned everything the hard way I’ve been trying no no Oh yeah she told me to grab up I grew up I stood up each day I move up again Got a minute to say what I want I am trying to make through everything Whatever I am right or wrong That made me how I am And if a I broke your heart Well I am sorry again [Chorus] Thinking back when I was in a trap Without a dollar to my name .. Nigger said … that’s what I think of that Say chance for the better I am never thinking back Now I could be .. forward Sin is so hard I think my .. harder Take .. like a fish above the water Man I am gonna survive I put that on my mind Swear to God how you .. if you never try I can’t see no future like I am living on my ride Every day I am living life like I could never die New clothes in my … in my garage New chick in the bedroom new chick by my side New watch saying this is my time so Don’t judge me just love me There is nothing above me My future is so pretty so I got .. ugly [Chorus]
