Lud Foe - True Story lyrics

{intro} Kid wond3r, you made this beat? damn! True story, listen, ay I'm going through a lot of sh*t, you know? Listen, dedicated to a lot of ni**as out there, you know? Been through the struggle True story Listen {verse 1} Just the other day, i remember like yesterday Got a phone call from my ni**a tray Told him meet me at the spot Bunch of guns found, mommas crying Cause we weren't cool with the other blocks Even went to school on the other blocks Had to take the 2 to the school We move from the other block I'm reminiscing on the past tense Growing up on the corner like god damn i gotta hide this Being disobedient, got kicked outta school Then got kicked out the house {?} Then got threw in a cell, i wasn't keeping my cool Then got home to some money, started making some moves, damn I'm living life on the edge Momma sayin' the lord with me, but the devil tryna get me You know these ni**as envy me Hatin' and prayin' they don't see me on mtv My life is moving like the railroads ni**as plotting tryna send me to the crossroads But me? i ain't having that ni**as shoot at me i start blasting back Smoke a blunt after that, you get {?}, no aftermath Got the city on my back, we ain't having that I popped so many pills i coulda had a heart attack Don't forget where you came from Remember where your heart is at Real ni**as do real things and i acknowledge that Remember waking up in that basement with my pops Went to school all bummy, i had holes in my socks Just a youngin' on the corner selling blow, selling rocks And i could never trust nobody cause my family all i got I was stuck behind that glass with my momma in my face And i'm a felon i can't stay where i can see on section 8 Always told me, "boy you love from all the choices that you make" I pray the lord {?} to see a better day {bridge} True story You know? Dedicated to all the ni**as out there that been through the struggle Everybody Listen {verse 2} sh*t i been through, could god forgive me? Cause i could be off in a jail doing 30 to 60 I walk around with a gun but still god be with me That's why i worship every day and i go hard for my city Cause the life that i live, ain't the life you wanna see Hard to believe, coming from me But i was young off in the streets 10 years old when i had my first gun off in the streets I was jumping off the porch but i was ready for the beef Smoking dope, poppin' pills, now i'm really in the heat Since a youngin' you an opp, if i ain't know you don't speak And my momma raised me tough, i was never ever weak I looked a ni**a in his eyes when he speak Cause i was coming from the streets You let a ni**a tell you lies, you get sneaked Think i'm lying? it shouldn't come as a surprise that you see Yeah {outro} Kid wond3r, you made this beat? damn!
