[verse 1]
i was born on a hot night in july
my mother taught me my limit was the sky
i love my mama dearly, she’s been there from the start
college educated but not very worldly smart
she had an engineering degree from lawrence tech
but where we lived, drug dealers was blastin’ tecs
i’m not just tecs, mac~11’s and nines
them schoolcraft boys gettin’ paid from crime
mama told mе stay away from the window on new years evе (why?)
cause n~ggas be shootin’ in the air on new years eve (d~mn)
d.p.d. raided the dope spot two doors down from our house
so many police cars on the block we couldn’t get to our house
black professionals moved to southfield, oak park and found dead (yeah they did)
but we still in the hood.. what the h~ll?
west side schoolcraft, i grew up in the ghetto
but my mom was educated, we had no business in the ghetto
liquor stores and churches on every corner
wrong time wrong place, you fa’sho to be a goner
the concept of family? i don’t understand that at all
besides my mom, no one was there for me at all
no father, no brothers, i had an uncle but he was weak
for almost ten years him and mom didn’t speak
he wasn’t speaking to her, so i guess he wasn’t speakin’ to me neither
that’s the kind of damage, that can’t be undone either

[verse 2]
the majority of millennial black men
were raised by women who dislike black men
all the stores in detroit were owned by asian and caldeans
my first experience with racism, asians and caldeans
so much self~hatred buried deep in me
take my frustrations out on people who look like me
got a taste of the wild life now no one can tame me
my blood pressure shoot up while she blame me
i didn’t ask to come here, especially without a father
but try to understand my point of view? she never bothered
when i started asking questions about my dad
she say some sh~t like: “you can’t miss what you never had”
how is it all my fault, when i didn’t have examples?
them gangstas in the streets, they became my examples
it was them that i wanted to be like
adrenaline pumping, fight or flight
now i’m living by the sword, the gun and the knife
a smile can hide it all, i been hurtin’ my whole life
i got off in this life cause i couldn’t find a job
and then i made a thousand in one day, f~ck getting a job
but see, the problem started when i was small
my father? i never met that n~gga at all
single mother, justifyin’ decisions that were bad
how dare you tell me i can’t miss what i never had

[verse 3]
for a while she had a boyfriend, he moved into our house
but he would disappear and binge for days at the eastside crack house
he had his own set of problems, he k!lled his sister’s husband
but his whole family got on the witness stand and said it wasn’t him
come to think about it.. she always dated a dime
never saw a man as educated as her around
what’s the point of going to college and becoming white collar
if all the men you date, they blue collar
i guess i grew up to be a f~ckin’ screw up
suppressed micro~uzis, kevlar vest, get chewed up
zips of cocaine, every week i move a few
never had a white girl before, but now i got two
i’m not sneaking behind backs and lyin’ to these women
all my women know about my other women
with a well placed truth you can never go wrong
bad and bis~xual other women turn her on
bag life, bag life, get it maayne
cash come to mind when you hear my name
the college dropout making more than my professors
hit the block with the work, now i’m giving out testers
got a trap room for my bad white b~tch
while i be at the spot, she be turnin’ tricks
if she follow my instructions i can leave drugs alone
and recruit more thotties and get my pimp on
