Lyrics: Pytha
Music: Pytha
what’re the odds?
came from nothing at all
bro we poor like the church
wanted better for me, I started putting in work
Mum was defaulting on loans, man it couldn’t get worse
I had to get up & get it
can’t move like you Niggas, I came out here from gidi
Y’all moving way too sluggish
Can’t relate to your privilege, had to stand firm on b’ness
(B’ness Ye Ye Ye)
This shit my real life, why I ain’t got time for niggas too comfy to put in work
Don’t mess with my bag, I’ll **** you up in the daylight
It’s on sight
Bonsam when I splash man,
Coke bottle on my left hand
Night night
Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go
A new day, time to get back in the road
Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher
I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes
Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go
A new day, time to get back in the road
Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher
I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes
I ghost them all, then linked again pulled up in ghost
It is not pride, I just had to go grind for my folks
At 22 I thought I would’ve smashed all my goals
‘magine the irony, that was the year I didn’t have a home
My nigga in this life
I can’t be civil cuz nothing was ever handed to me, I had to fight to get what everyone else got for free
I came from failure but it won’t be the ending of me
My kids will ball forever cuz of all decisions i made
Man I done seen it all, I could go blind and tell you nothing new would come
I won’t be lying if I told you I done felt it all
So many tragic things I don’t wanna see no more
Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go
A new day, time to get back in the road
Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher
I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes
Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go
A new day, time to get back in the road
Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher
I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes
As an African kid
Your first battle in life is against poverty
You have to defeat poverty to find purpose
You need money to find purpose
You need money to fuel purpose
You have to defeat poverty to find purpose
Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go
A new day, time to get back in the road
Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher
I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes
Up in the morning I brush my teeth and then I go
A new day, time to get back in the road
Day by day steadily climbing the ropes higher
I pray jah don’t get me cut off the ropes
