Memories,

Oh
I am the first son of Betsy and Mensah
Made and made a legend, Woodlawn and 47th
Gunshots outside my window, drug deals out by the
But mama always made sure the tooth fairy found my
My was always workin', he put the family first
Chicago Saturdays in the park and Sundays at
Kept me from off the where Stones and GDs was warrin'
And Kings and BDs and VLs all had dreams of Jordan
Even dope was scorin', swish, tryna be like Mike
Shootin' through that baseline in their veins tryna that height
I was a little rockstar, dressed up Jimi Hendrix
In Hyde park in the good part in the hood like engines
Teachers see my vision, had me in IEPs
out of kindergarten, they didn't know that I was me
Tattooed my tears, wrote my in my skin
Because as a boy I always knew I'd be the man

In my (In my dreams)
I saw it in my (yeah)
The will be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine

On 47th (yeah)
Sebastian got me
One day it be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine

At age 12 I learned the difference between white and
Police pulled me off of my bike, I landed on my
to reality, oops, a victim of gravity
Where they you down and keep you there
Dependin' on how you keep your
Now fuck 'em up and bumpin nothin' but NWA
Smokin' a 7 or an 8th, way before 7th
My classmates yay
Sebastian got me high that first
In the back of an abandoned truck by Place
Couldn't feel my
Sprayin' paint to see my name on trains, try not to a case
Age 13 at Cam granny house, watchin' him up the Ace
He the needle out and waved it in my face
If I ain't tell that boy, "Be easy, dog," I coulda died of
I realizin' my talents 'bout the time I was 15
Tryna take over the world like Pinky and the
Sellin' kush and hittin' stains, still in True Religion
16, I was shinin' just like a Stanley Kubrick
Sneakin' Lollapalooza, I fell off of that bridge
15,000 volts went through my elbow, fell over 30
The doctor said I should be dead, still alive and ain't scared
In the hospital bed, writin' these in my head

In my (In my dreams)
I saw it in my (yeah)
The city will be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all

On 47th (yeah)
got me high
One day it will be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all

In a land of desperation we often turn to self medication as a mechanism.
Some make a living as hood pharmacists while some inhale to remove them from hell.
I watched the window of a gated community until I grew old enough there was no immunity from allure of the life
