[Verse 1] I wrote this one up in my mother's crib, posted in my old room Sitting on my little brother's bed Thinking back to when I used stare out that window And see dollars falling from sky, while I'm lifted off indo Or even further back when Boo had the black BM My step pops, he was my idol, wanted to be just like him When I was 9, he would bring me with him to Rufus king So he could make some cheese, ceelo champ, lucky hand, seen him come up on like a G Then took me straight to the coliseum Copped me a Cuban link and some sneakers from Moe's Couple of years pa**ed, guess he couldn't escape the hoes It f**ed me up when mom's kicked him out I had to man up and be the man of the house Real sh**, look at me now mommy Your eldest child, rocking crowds just to make you proud I swear god I never wanna see you grieve again, so please take a seat I just earned us a meal ticket, it's about time that we eat [Verse 2] Give me the black Testarossa with the penthouse Or the mansion in the gardens, nah I want it all I do this for the ones who wanna see me make it Dear haters and nonbelievers, this y'all last call I tryna see my money flowing like Nile River Watching my mom struggle was my fuel to dream bigger But bigger dreams leads to bigger goals And when I accomplish those watch me triple up on my cream
I refused to go the route guided by the triple beam Went to college, dropped out...got serious with this rap thing A few cats was hatin like n***a you ain't gon make it Then I took trips to other continents for them payments Came back shinin', stayed humbled and kept grindin' Sold a couple shows and now my whole crew wildin World's Fair we here now, all my n***as got a seat I earned us meal ticket, let's make toast y'all, let's eat [Verse 3] Dear Kyasia, Dear Amari, I just want y'all to know That I love y'all both to d**h And I know I'm not around much, but try to understand I'm in the lab making progress so I could bring home the checks And help mommy with the bills since the feds took y'all fathers Now she working overtime cause she's the only provider Now it's up to me to make the load lighter As your brother, that's my job, tryna make sure y'all live proper and elevate higher Little brother, you're my heart I wanna see you grow up and be a ball player or somethin' Stay in school and pay attention Cause I don't wanna see you in the streets, bound for the system To my beautiful sister I heard you wanna be a singer, well anythings possible You're too young for them boys So stay focused and follow your dreams trust me, anythings possible...let's eat
