(yeah) (remember
sleeping on that
concrete
floor) (look
at me
now)
Used to hear the keys turn in the iron door
Cold steel bars, sleeping on a concrete floor
Now I sink into a feather mattress,
feeling blessed
No more jumping when a blade is pointed at my chest Survived
the street sweepers, bullets flying by my head They wanted me forgotten,
wanted me among the dead
Look at my growth,
from the block to the stage
Turning the page, broke up out of the cage
From catching hats and ducking shots in the dark
To standing in line,
leaving my mark
The struggle was real,
had to fight to survive
Only God knows how I kept myself alive
No more running from the flashing blue lights
No more staying up through those terrified nights
From the bottom of the pit to the top of the hill
Every scar on my skin is a testament real
Look at my growth,
from the block to the stage
Turning the page, broke up out of the cage
From catching hats and ducking shots in the dark
To standing in line,
leaving my mark
Yeah,
look how far we came (hummmm) No more sleeping on the floor
We made it out
