Better Path Lyrics

I was fallin' for the trap, they was sayin' take a better path

I was tryna burn the block, ain't even go and take a bath

I was tryna get a knot, it was shit we didn't have

They was tryna show no sympathy, they was screamin' oh well

When I got out my cell, I went to giving these people hell

Y'all don't know how it feel, every day three days gettin' mail

Man, that shit was hell, I remember cryin' to myself I was tellin' myself, I gotta get out and prevail

I was just sittin' without a bail, and lil bro was sitting as well

They was tryna give us time, me and him ain't never tell

They was tellin' me to get out and rap, cause they know this shit a sale

I'm the voice of the streets, and the voice of the cells

Went to fallin' for the trap, then I went to catching sales

Bruh, had fell for the streets, then the they gave bruh an L

I been out here trying to prosper, but they want me to fail

Might need to see a doctor, cause I'm scarred for real

How am I gon' get that crib she want? How am I get that car I like?

I'm finna show out, I'ma pop something like a dynamite I remember back then, we was fucked up, eatin' bread and rice

No pain, no gain, I'ma have her cleaning up listening to Betty Wright

I was fallin' for the trap, they was sayin' take a better path

I was tryna burn the block, ain't even go and take a bath

I was tryna get a knot, it was shit we didn't have

They was tryna show no sympathy, they was screamin' oh well

When I got out my cell, I went to giving these people hell

Y'all don't know how it feel, every day three days gettin' mail

Man, that shit was hell, I remember cryin' to myself I was tellin' myself, I gotta get out and prevail
