From The Ground

As soon as you get a little money, that's when them roaches start coming around

Never did nothing to help or support, but they swear the whole time, they was holding you down

When I was broke and I ain't have no change in my pocket, I do not remember you 'round

I tried to tell everybody that I would be rich, and they all looked at me like a clown (uh)

I wish I could look at 'em all in the face and tell 'em to look at me now (ha)

They just be over there trying to look rich, I be trying to figure out how (how)

Hitting rock bottom and not having nothing is something I just won't allow

I've never been a fan of a helping hand, I'll build it straight from the ground

Mama told me I was spoiled, she already knew I was having my way

She already know that I be trippin', so now all she can do is pray

She know that I just be chillin' but know that the way that I'm living ain't safe
