Curtiss King - My Story lyrics

Let me tell y'all, let me tell y'all Let me tell y'all, let me tell y'all V1 Let's take them back the year is 92 / Ya boy is four years old, that's when they should've knew Call into the radio requesting every tune Then he'd grab his Xylophone to play along in the living room Dancing with my mah then threw a fit when it was over Beckoned them again that's a spoiled kid's closure Diggin through my stepdads records when I'm older He told me put that down while staring over shoulder Had the thought I'll make my own cause that'll really show em The product of a broken home // the beast demand control and I ain't one to fall in line with other people's motives So I listened to em all without him ever knowing Hook Let me tell ya, let me tell ya my story I ain't in it for the glory son Let me tell ya, let me tell ya my story Ain't no one gon' do it for me so Let me tell ya, let me tell ya my story I ain't in it for the glory son Let me tell ya, let me tell ya my story I know that ain't really for me so V2 Fast forward onto high school bumping do or die Witness ye in the stu made me feel so alive Watch him chop a beat and then he go and lay a rhyme Made it look so yeezy // found an outlet for the poems inside So a couple beats on limewire got him writing Creative self expression what he found inviting Something bout the car made the chase more enticing Heard it all before //something told em keep on driving I'm with BB in the Benz and we bumpin all that maybach Chevys ridin high, oh man that take me way back Just cruisin out for lunch // the fuzz stopped us on the way back He told us turn it down we ain't listen when he say that so That's another f**ing ticket // sorry mister brown A couple Devils with a cause // Hit their rhythm now 2Pac on a golf course // smash bucket then we go and lounge Ain't no better feeling // blast the system with the windows down // Hands high if you feel me // College taught him drop out // 9th wonder made him busy But the people under stairs made the atmosphere less sh**ty Dilated on the goal time to bring the people with me Hook Let me tell ya, let me tell ya my story I ain't in it for the glory son Let me tell ya, let me tell ya my story Ain't no one gon' do it for me so Let me tell ya, let me tell ya my story I ain't in it for the glory son Let me tell ya, let me tell ya my story I know that ain't really for me so Bridge Gotta keep on working and strive to make it Cause this new found family his motivation And these sold out shows signs of dedication Proof that dreams pay off when you really chase them When you really chase them
