Nuzzy Ashton - 17. lyrics

(Verse1) As a youngin I was told not to be a fool Start realizing that sh** was crazy before we hit the roof Benefit from n***as who don't wanna hear the truth But honesty is the key, my n***a Let them b**hes lose, uh I grew up in the gutter Just a young motherf**er, took responsibility Of my actions though that sh** was f**ed up But, I was fighting against my demons. Physically and mentally That sh** was k**ing my self esteem n***as like you Neva made it, so you always hesitated How the f** will you make it, if you don't put your heart to it Uh, still talking to my conscience, feeling paranoid I need a blunt to keep me focused And I was just a youngin when that sh** was going down Reminiscing about the past, waking up to gun sounds Uh, rest in peace to my n***as. Dead and gone we'll keep Praying until it's over (Hook) I'm a youngin Yeah I'm a youngin I'm a youngin yeah I'm a youngin 17 and living and I'm try a get to fame 17 and living and I'm tryna get to fame.yeah X3 (Verse 2) Life is short as f**, He's locked up in the cemetery Talking to myself, don't wanna see another burry From the place the where n***as run around with A-K Shoot you in the face You'll Neva be okay Lord have mercy on my people Cause it's f**ed up Another die, another locked up In the f**ing cell I told my mom it'll be ok I'm tryna chase my dreams Nothing was the same, when Emmanuel got shot Back in 08, but it felt like yesterday, never let the moment fades I think about it everyday, Going back and forth This my last San Andres flow College is a option so I gotta let streets go You steady posting photos, while I'm chasing all my goals Accomandate your life and don't, let the chances go Uh, that's words to my n***as. Take control of your life And be a leader (Hook)
