lirik lagu j magnus – rear view
yeah, uh
i remember getting teased for sneakers
before this rap thing was cool
before they’d ask for features
when we was flat broke with no plans for dinero
our chances looking narrow
but now it’s quite mellow oh
but i’m still working towards the mansion though
working towards the wraith, the i8
and all the splashing bro
but this road still looking long as h~ll
and i’ll be honest i have days where i doubt i’ll prevail
but i’m just glad to see my momma smile
tears no longer stain her face
you told me boy keep the faith
we gon’ see them better days
pray every time when you down
and don’t forget god when you’re great
and seeing what you’ve done with yourself
in the last couple of years
i’ll keep the faith and i’ll work for it just like you did
yeah, yeah
i remember getting teased for wearing sneakers
before this rap thing was cool
before they’d ask for features
back when these girls called us lame
back when me and my brodie used to skate down that lane
with the half naked women
oh sh~t how the times changed
nowadays i get my d~ck sucked just for being j
so many different b~tches
i’ve probably seen more titties than a fat kid’s had twinkies
but i digress
bypass bullsh~t
hate is under my class
quite classy but this summer i want my pinky looking glassy
and a chain so big
have the whole city wanna blast me
i remember getting teased for wearing sneakers
before this rap thing was cool
before they’d ask for features
showed mad promise in school
go ahead and ask my teachers
i told my momma i don’t need anything the school’s gonna teach us
i’ve come a long way since
same bounce in different hallways since
and if we ain’t talking building brands
then our meeting just don’t make sense
if it don’t make rands then it don’t make sense, uh
always focused bro the bag come first
operation by any means, sh~t i might sn~tch purse
and i might turn perp
it dawned on me when i worked clerk
that this normalcy of dormancy is death to a dream
and i can’t do it
i can’t die basic
that’s why i’m up every morning
i’m working i’m grinding
i need that blow up urgent
yeah
i remember getting teased for wearing sneakers
was never about the kicks
but the logo and the price tag on those f~cking sneakers
sh~t i remember being a joke
i used to rock the same clothes
remember going to school and have no lunch
ain’t have a cent
and i remember how my momma used to struggle with that rent
remember my confidence low
remember we prayed and held on
remember the brandy was hot
for r4 we buying a lot
man i remember passing out at 14
750 on my own
cheap wine to pass the time
that’s the only thing that i know
and i remember thinking suicide
would i be missed?
all black and my momma crying
give her a kiss
but i took all of that
narrated my life through these songs
now they applauding that
made it out the darkest places
tell me where the hopeless
and where the broken at
i hope my pops is looking down with a smile
and i hope he’s proud of his son
