Thoroughbred Freestyle/Blessed with a Burden Lyrics

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Oooohhh

I just tell the truth

I'm from where having ass at 13 shit be normal here

Collard greens and corn bread

Not talking Miami when I say the bitch a thoroughbred

Pray for peace on Sunday

Just see what numbers doing here

If you respect the hustle, shit

You might just get along here

But watch where you lay your head

They'll strip you down and make you turn tail

Oh well, serving more dimes than Kobe dishing to O'Neil

Fumbling a sack these niggas reach farther than Odell

I'm speaking my truth fore' I ever touched a booth

I came to the conclusion on this mic shit I belong here

Catch me in the field a face that everybody know

Tread lightly demeanor spiking everybody toe

Only time I ran if I did it on the track

Had to put on a track for if you think it's fitted cap

I seen visions everybody around me winning

200-meter dash I acclimated to distance

Confession I would love to get violent

In public just watching for red flags and sirens

Tino at the door tryna fight and

I hid behind my mama cause I want bout that life

Heart sunk my gut still couldn't recognize the signs

Adrenaline was pumping like I'm filling 95

4th grade it's coming soon a day gotta provide

That day I decided ma won't ever fight my fight

I'm in these mufuckin' streets nigga

In a mufuckin' fleece nigga

Told Knock to give me a beat

I gotta eat nigga

I ain't said a word these facts

You can see nigga

Destined for this shit

The Lord told me who I'm gone be (figures)

If you feel off then get ya popcorn and a seat so you can see

I don't wanna know

I just tell the truth

What you gonna do?

I don't wanna know

I don't do competition

Serving bars like I stay in the kitchen

I got mass appeal

That's why everybody listen

Proof is in the pudding you can the dishes

Neo southern sound like granny put her foot in

Better watch your hands them wooden spoons for more than whippin'

Respect who came before me how I gather mass attention

I wanted the peace

My mama want me out the streets

I gotta take care of my seed

I got another mouth to feed look

Made decisions change my whole trajectory

Work for this my whole life now you get to peek

The media illusion that I'm kicking up my feet

Reality I step like I won't see into next week

What you expect from me?

Never knew my daddy

At birth mama abandoned me

Laying with a man with a ring like he got plans to keep

Statistically should be in a hole, but I got plans for me

Billboards and GQ public demonstration

Who would've thought this kid from the burbs would touch a nation

Designed from the beginning disfavoring pigmentation

Better hope to go to the league, but I ain't into that

I rather establish a league bring the city out

Something we can cling at and be hopeful

Don't gotta hold a mic or a ball live how you supposed to

Thats a fact!

Misconception failing don't make you a failure

Take a L I wear it on my shoulder like regalia

Never met a soul who didn't channel inner hell

I seen plenty demons coat like "everything swell"

Steaming up the backseat I'm clearing the air(uh)

Ayy look whatever you going through whatever you experiencing just know

There is light at the end of this tunnel

If you woke up today... you winning

(That's a fact)

Don't ever forget that

Never let nobody put it in your mind because you suffering from right now

Because you going through something that your life means any less than it did yesterday

(Yes sir!)

Your life has value

(Yes sir!)

And it's going to have value tomorrow

So as long as you in the land of the living…

Pick your head up
