[Hook]
If you ain't never been through the struggle n***a you won't understand
If you ain't never ever had to hustle n***a you won't understand
If you ain't never lost yo' mind n***a you won't understand
If you ain't never had to tote iron n***a you won't understand
You won't understand
n***a you won't understand
Paranoid when I'm coming out the crib n***a you don't understand
Every night I used to grind hard trying to come up on a band
And ain't nan n***a taking my life won't give it up fam
[Verse 1]
I thank God for the pain and all the trauma
Cause it taught a n***a how to be Strong
And to face my problems
I don't even smoke weed no more but I'm still a grinder
Gotta keep my mind clear at all times so I can't be cloudy
I thank God for my Daddy and my Momma
Cause a lot of n***as don't got a daddy and they lost they Momma
I always tried to escape pain and the drama
But some how way or another it just seem to follow
And when I lost my mind turned me into a monster
And now I done got it all back and that's what I thank God for
Never start nothing with nobody and I never cause problems
Never walk around like I'm tough stay humble but I'm solid
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
I used to ride around with a little 380. that'll burn You
Taking penitentiary chances riding with the burner
And you would too if you knew it was n***as trying to murder
But I know God got my life ain't nothing I'm scared of
And n***as might say I'm lame cause I ain't up in the streets
But I know myself too well and I know where I'll be
Cause I know a young n***a like me ain't afraid to aim
And I know a n***a been done threw his whole entire life in the drain
Too many members of my family done been to prison
And these n***as act like thugs until they get sentenced
Cause n***as can't take that heat and they end up snitching
He say he won't fold in the streets but the judge make him fold in a minute
