[Verse 1: Joey Fatts]
I been through it all, I done seen a lot
That's why I thank the Lord, I'm blessed for everything I got
I slept in them cars, served on the blocks
It made me who I am, it made me everything you not
Since 2nd grade been dreaming 'bout Os in my bank account
Momma drunk, sleep on the couch, brother serving out the house
sh**, it's just another day on 7th Street, from dope and weed
We out late and got everything, what you need?
Been gang bangin' since gold nugget rings and wallabees
'99 summer, know Lil Lody gon' pop for me
Banging the Hot Boys, thought I was B.G
Bringing guerrilla warfare if any n***a f** with me
Learned from my older Gs, play football for Coach [?] at Long Beach
Probably would've thought that I would be the man
Can't wait till I see him again, your young boy got a little bigger
And I ended up being that n***a, being that n***a
[Hook: Mansuy]
I don't know how else, I'd make it
If I didn't know myself, I knew I couldn't run away
So I made a way for me
And somehow ended up here
Somehow ended up here, yeah
Somehow ended up here, living the dream
[Verse 2: Joey Fatts]
Hard times made us closer, good times made us beef
Another day another struggle, growing up on the East
But regardless, these my people and my family gotta eat
So I'm rapping and making beats to get my n***as out the streets
Losing sleep to get sh** that we never had
Get my momma out that bottle, get my n***as out that can
Out here going full throttle, breaks, I don't understand
Now I'm sh**tin' on these n***as makin' b**hes leave they man
In Guyana getting tan, South America or France
Even when I'm in the pens, a young n***a want the pen
The young n***a getting ends, all his dollars making sense
Automatics come with sticks in case they come with the sh**
I'm clapping like a nasty b**h, had to part away from them n***as
That say that they do but they don't f** with you
[?] frame then I got that picture
Then ended up being that n***a, being that n***a
[Hook: Mansuy]
I don't know how else, I'd make it
If I didn't know myself, I knew I couldn't run away
So I made a way for me
And somehow ended up here
Somehow ended up here, yeah
Somehow ended up here, living the dream
