What If!? Lyrics

Guess it's that time again

What if

What if

I treated life as a chore

Then gave it all up

Because I felt bored

Curled up under covers

Me can't take no more

What if

What if

As a youngin I jumped off the terrace

Cuz I couldn't handle

Being teased and embarrassed

And not see the fortune

From all my merits

What if

What if

I died young

And my parents had to suffer

Will they be strong enough

To protect my younger brother

Or drown in their sorrows

To then lose another

What if

What if

I opened up and

Allowed you to delve

In my mind to see

I'm finally doing well

I deserve all the joy

For going thru all the hell

What if

What if

What if

I never made it pass

Sixteen

Yet twenty five

Feels like a lofty dream

Now i'm in my thirties

I can do anything

What if

What if

I grew up a bad child

Became a dropout

Followed the wrong crowd

Masked up

Before i'm six feet

Underground

What if

What if

My nigga Show

Never went to the PJs

Tunes will still be alive

This very day

And family ties

Won't go separate ways

What if

What if

All my people

Safely made it home

Nobody spun the block

Just to let off chrome

Hurts my soul that I won't

Get answers on this song

What If

How much time a nigga

Spend on a intro

As I stand here

Rappin off of impulse

Lettin out my woes

Fo' I implode

Just to run it with my woes

To the next flo

This is top shelf

The penthouse

A different kind of elegance

No longer surrounded

In those grim environments

On my path

Until I reach

A higher state of conscious

And gather enough funds

Turn prisons

Into establishments

God this is heaven sent

Give each settlement

To every descendants

Just for their betterment

So they can benefit

From the fruits

Of my labor

Can care less

If they minor or major

As long as what they do

Make our bloodline greater

They'll never owe me any favors

PROV

I'm outside nigga

The crown is mine

What if I spent less time on a intro
