I grew up 

I made it to see 18 

and now its a goal to meet 21

i grew up in chicago where shots fired and inocents die one by one 

im sacred 

scared of these streets 

because bullets have name people wearing 10k chains

my people always told me where they grew up was the same

do you walk in my shoes do feel my fear i grew up on the south side of chicago 

where corner stores are filled up and bodys on the ground while mothers crying tears

i grew up by my lonely 

i grew up with all hopes 

i grew up with my mom and dad 

but most of yall take me as a joke

taught my self how to survive 

and to survive on this field 

 and 21 aint promise to see in a couple of years
