[Verse 1]
All my life I've been judged
All my life I've been put down
You sacrificed and i asked for life
Living life right now as the good child
Ive put in work discovered real
Stuck and f**ed in a f**ed up deal
Lucked up still, got up out of this sh**
Slappin' pussies with the side of my dick
I've been on my grind, for my child
Made me proud to be part of a blessing
Rizzo locked up, baby mama knocked up
Now he dealing with another n***a connection
Man I'm stressing, man I'm smokin'
Looking at life from a different perspective
Man I'm growing, these n***as' is hating
And now I walk around and I stay protected
I ain't thugging, I ain't sold a brick
I ain't on stage tryna hold my dick
I'm outta town I got a show to give
I'm from where the broke n***as had to show me sh**
I ain't scared, I know what I'm worth
Hide my pain, in my perc put my soul all in my verse
I got 4 or 5 n***as that done see me learn and still moving
[Hook]
Hold up, slow down
Team work make the dream work
I seen good and I seen dirt
You're all in when the dream work (f** that!) [x2]
[Verse 2]
They predict for all of my n***as we'd be dead on d** or in the pen
Use the pen with some juice and Gin take it on your brains in the midst of sin
I keep faith, even when I fight myself
Bring me down and get beside myself
The hardest critic is the n***as that's spittin
All of these lyrics lil n***a tryna find himself
Time will tell I might as well
I got a soul I ain't tryna sell
I came from the bottom, tired of all the problems
Looking for a way cus I spent a little time in hell (Goddamn)
Lost soul with a wrong crowd, bad mix with a bad b**h
Distracted by all of the good, settle for the hood
We gon' see how f**ing far these dub sack get
Still move
[Hook]
Hold up, slow down
Team work make the dream work
I seen good and I seen dirt
You're all in when the dream work (f** that!) [x2]
[Verse 3]
I'm living in my own world, Didn't accomplish sh** but I want some more
Open doors for my city b**h I'm tryna live like the Huxtables
I'm comfortable I ain't changing ho
Bag of weed and a change of clothes
You got a momma and a daddy had to crazy with your friends
You're a phony lil n***a, what chu banging for
I'm calling out all f** sh**, f** boy don't act surprised
k**ing rappers, you all practice guys
Sick of all these squares, fakes come in package size
I'm screaming out team work make the dream work
The dream work when the team in it
Sound good but it is good, smoking on some good
You can smell when the ink it, still moving
[Hook]
Hold up, slow down
Team work make the dream work
I seen good and I seen dirt
You're all in when the dream work (f** that!) [x2]
