legend of a holly tree Lyrics

Let me tell you a story about a lil youngin that always knew he gon' be somebody

Gotta go back before all the rap but shit

Music, it was a lil hobby

I was in high school playin' them games

Nigga, I wanted the clout, I wanted to party

It was a couple of nights, I drank too much

17 cup full of bicardi

Remember them days that I'm gettin' older

I'm disagreein' with my mom

I done some things that hurt her heart

Shit, and that hurt me like a bomb

And it's always rest in peace, my bruva trevor

I need one more chance to hold you in my arms

And I'm not even talkin' bout the niggas lost to violence

They the reason that I always be armed

I grew up wantin' for nothing

I can't even lie

Shit, life was good

I was always a money hungry lil youngin

And I had my lil hustle

I did what I could

I picked up a bad habit

Called up the plug for a 20, put two in the wood

And nah I ain't put it down

Ended up getting converted

Sheets and funnel good

Dont get shit misunderstood

I been down below under them foots

I remember them days i was living and shit its a blessing to eat once a day

The struggle was real had to find a way

I lost so many along the way

And if i did you wrong im sorry

Cant even say im a better man now

But i looked inside and looked at my soul

And i made a decision and chose

That it won't be no more

And if I tell you I love you

I promise I'll never let you go

Go, go

Ha

Shit, I done did some things I ain't prada

Shit, it's a certain time, and a certain year

And a certain disease

I was getting new prada

Tryna be a stand up guy

Shit, I'm the one to look up to when it come to my daughter

Shit, I don't have one yet

But shit, I'ma be there so she can do what I taught her

But that's enough about the past

I got a plan today, tomorrow

I know that we can only go up

I done been at the ground feeling sorrow

People they always try be in my face

I don't want handouts

I don't want sorrys

I call up Slim

It's gon' be a day where we up in Jamaica

We sippin' on sorrel
