That was back when... Back when it was nothin' but a dream Food drive service, black churches kept my mother cookin' daily dinner, breakfast, even lunches for the team Pulled me to the side, told me she was savin' up a bucket full of green Hush plans boy, nothin's for the scene Get up off your a** and follow your pa**ion Motivated from moments then it's back to the mattress Work patches back to back, me god be tragic All these a**es, rack up thoughts, wreak havoc You, you follow the rules Develop misunderstandin' then swallow your j**els Dependin' on model theres never model your uniqueness, deep kiss the way you bottle your cool I remember the school high Ridiculous new ideas to my peers, fear you must be a musha Martin look wrist boy better woosa! My n***as reflectin' images [?] Lord, I've been at task I ask my last request on earth is not to let my selfish way shine through Don't believe in karma, only God but I know what goes round comes right back round for you Can I get a church? 1995 and 97 was the worst Started writin' to escape but I was livin' on a verse Only lookin' forward to the fifteen and the first Told my n***as I don't want to hit a forty with a forty in front of bodegas incarcerated or in a herse Systematically envisioned to imprison me in dirt By the age of 27 I'm just tryna dead a curse 15 I had a vivid conversation with myself And said self you can either k** you or k** a verse Now my verses have verses in burials Scriptures and carols through me when I'm blessed And I am my best me [Hook: Sylvan LaCue] All I wanna do is be the best me All I wanna do is be the best me All I wanna do is be the best me All I wanna do is be the best me, best me possibly All I wanna do is be the best me All I wanna do is be the best me All I wanna do is be the best me All I wanna do is be the best me, best me possibly
