Lil B - My History lyrics

[Intro] Real sh** man It's crazy, because a lot of n***as don't know where to go 'cause a lot of n***as don't know what their past is You know, our history was burned and sh** But, it's good because n***as can write history every day, you feel me? I'm doing something every day [Verse 1] A lot of n***as cry, but speak no fear Behind closed doors, is n***as shooting dice on the floor Brought the colored ones for luck, right before A piss test from my P.O., behind the BART tracks Sipping liquor, having dreams with my n***as,"If this rap sh** work out I'm buying all my family a Beamer" I don't pay attention to that fly sh**, the hunger in my stomach Make most n***as on land seasick Back to the story at hand, at the dice game Right before the piss test, my P.O. came Four n***as by my side, we chosen for this probation Held slavery in discrete forms But then you got to realize, a lot of violent black men in the world Make me want to pull my nine on n***as And I'm a peaceful dude, just trying to hustle to get my food I ain't saying that we poor, but we want a little more In this life, where no one's sure Unless you're born into the money, our history was burned So if I was a king, I wouldn't know the answer sh**, they ask me to pull my pants up This style war's sh**, this the freedom of dress Can't even dress to impress, I'm so depressed Because no one's happy for you until you die Then you cry out of happiness, "I'm alive" [Hook x2] Blood, I don't know my history I'm just trying to find out where I came from It's a struggle to survive, where I come from We all left behind, where I come from [Verse 2] I'm on a telescope, n***as studying my life The modern day sacrifice, walking down the street common I see the pain, look through my own two eyes n***as ask me for advice, I just give them a life The pimp game poisonous, we gain for free Because I need it, O.G.'s give the game to me No one to look up to, no dad That's a tough move, sided core like a truck do See working long nights on the bus, move The pa**ion's in my heart to see all success Had to drive myself, just to be the best I aim for the fame, and just show the respect In return, real n***as start to cashing the checks His to me, every day History every day, sh**, minds will burn But I move, realize 'til the day was earned sh**, I reals sh**, I realize today was earned My history was urned, but today was earned Lil B, Gold Dust Mixtape Rare sh** [Bridge] You know, you can make history every day It don't matter if you don't know where you come from [Hook x2] Blood, I don't know my history I'm just trying to find out where I came from It's a struggle to survive, where I come from We all left behind, where I come from - Lil B
