Duke - Silver Spoon lyrics

[Verse 1: Tha Duke] Born rich but dad f**ed up Those days in the past when a n***a lived reckless My boy left me behind My mum took the pieces and made my life a thing I felt trapped with a rusted spoon Mum took all the blame without a man I feel proud of her I now understand the term Everything happens for a reason, hard emotions Can't imagine living with the family one day And I said with everybody I'm just tryna be the great All ma dawgs be feeling what I go do for a living Thinking about success every time left me emotional But sisters came in Nak and Grace Hip-hop gives a n***a hope Clarity is sometimes hidden from the family Isn't that ironic? haha haha Isn't that ironic? haha haha [Chorus: Tha Duke] Born rich but dad messed up (X3) Ain't no two ways about that I just pray to the lord [Verse 2: OBO 9] See I, I've been reminiscing Took a trip back to the past like it's some expedition Family business on my mind and it's funny how I can make it from writing lines I told them it was just beginning But let's be optimistic Looking back at them old days when life wasn't so great If I be shoddy like no boy go approach me Bete neer homeboys f33 fee steady If it ain't about the money I will see you later We walk in twos, listen to views double minded God damn it real friends are a few My only inspiration is my elevation Your style has no validation I'm covered with benediction Don't get it, they never listen Hit the road in search of gold Born rich little did daddy know Friends are much closer foes and it's cold [Verse 3: Tha Duke] We all know mum and dad ain't the same at it All I do each day is keep my faith high cos Mum taught me faith in what makes you happy This sh** won't make me distressed and I finally feel like I've emerged from this situation regardless of everything A n***a hopes for the best (n***a hopes for the best) womanizing is not the only thing which makes a man feel good Family is always acting exotic I'm just in to make history I feel like I'm the messenger in this family I was so overwhelmed when certain things took place But I see its overrated so I reconsider the fact it can't go your way Nobody was born rich or poor it's the path you choose Which will determine your future
