Liberated Childhood

[Intro] Yeah It’s for all the ones who made it out From the bottom, uh [Verse 1] Grew up with my back to the wall, pain in my veins Daddy had a fist, and a bottle full of chains Thunder in the night, momma tried to keep me sane B***d on the floor, but her hope never changed Broken little boy with a dream in my chest She said, “Don’t let the bruises ever put you to rest” Eyes on the door, heart pounding in my vest But she whispered in my ear, “One day, you’ll be blessed” [Pre-Chorus] Concrete floors, had to learn to be still But my mind ran wild, always chasing a thrill Momma told me, “Baby, don’t you ever lose will They can’t keep you down, ‘less you lay there and chill” [Chorus] I had pain in my story, rain in my sight Dark in the morning, but I found my light Trap in my b***d, but my grind came right Momma kept believing, now I’m living that life Yeah, I got scars, but they shining tonight Turned all my wounds to a reason I f***t Left all the demons, now I’m high as a kite Thank you, momma, for my spirit and might [Verse 2] Had to wipe my own tears, had to man up quick Could’ve lost my head, could’ve ran with the sick But my momma’s voice was my armor and stick “Keep chasing that gold, don’t you settle for a brick” Used to sleep with one eye open, fists tight Now I’m counting blue faces in the neon light From the gravel to the penthouse, took flight Ain’t no looking back, all I see is hindsight [Pre-Chorus] Concrete floors, had to find me a will Dreams in my pocket, and a mountain to k**l Momma said, “Rise, let ‘em see your skill They can’t hold you down; show ‘em what’s real” [Chorus] I had pain in my story, rain in my sight Dark in the morning, but I found my light Trap in my b***d, but my grind came right Momma kept believing, now I’m living that life Yeah, I got scars, but they shining tonight Turned all my wounds to a reason I f***t Left all the demons, now I’m high as a kite Thank you, momma, for my spirit and might [Bridge] Ain’t no more shadows in my rearview All that pain, now I see it clear, too Momma’s faith got me breaking through Father’s wrath couldn’t end what I’m meant to do [Outro] So I stack up my wins, put the hurt in the past Toast to the struggle and the lessons that last Every fall taught me how to get up fast Boy from the gutter, now I’m built to outlast Yeah, I’m built to outlast Momma, you believed—now your boy finna blast
