Aiwal Turé - No Turning Back (feat. Steve Chase) Lyrics

Since my daddy was a rolling stone what was I to be
Just a young Lil nut out running these streets
Smoke a leaf with my partners Young and mannish chasing skirts
Got potential of a God But my thinking in the dirt
Trying to put some sh** together got money on my mind
To err they say is human forgiving is divine
So recline in the mind masquerade these times
Lock the bathroom door just to have a piece of mind
Stay ahead of the madness while my family rolling up
Man it hurt just to see your family barely holding up
Bearing witness to the little foot soldiers growing up
Was toys now its stars that they claim and Throwing up
Got them blinders on Keep my eyes focused to the top
While we stay afloat and wade through them troubled a** spots
Take a look back remember where you came from
Now turn you're a** around and do the sh** you aint done

You can turn ya head around as a matter of fact
Hit the rearview mirror Take a look no turning back
You can turn ya head around as a matter of fact
Hit the rearview mirror Take a look no turning back

Caught me staring at the world through my rear view
Even when you scream loud they don't hear you
Head up thank the Lord for a new day
Flush the toilet on the sh** these bit***s do say
Growing up determining to get my sh** right
Know like hell we had to swang out them fist fights
Even attempt shifting gears the uphill road
But good weed, good drink got a ni**a feeling throwed
Corner store in the hood sell us old meat
On top of cold malt liquor while we hold that heat
The side of town where you don't really expect much
Old lady clutch her purse bout to head to chuuch
Had love for them times much sh** aint changed
Out of sports and entertainment we slang them thangs
Now take a look back remember where you came from
Now turn you're a** around and do the sh** you aint done

You can turn ya head around as a matter of fact
Hit the rearview mirror Take a look no turning back
You can turn ya head around as a matter of fact
Hit the rearview mirror Take a look no turning back

Funny how the world done changed man these people a trip
Hear one thing out they lips then they ready to flip
Blame a man who was a boy with no hope seen
No direction so the world made a new dope fiend
Got a family full of felonies and misdameans
All we got is balls so we quick to intervene
See time don't stop neither can I
Time money motivation my new high
Funny in the past they used to laugh at our ways
Now they profit off them crazy conspicuous ways
Keep a crispy button up sport khakis and wood
Three striped shells homie it's all good
Take a second just to think if we died today
Are these punk a** bit***s worth your time of day
Now take a look back remember where you came from
Now turn you're a** around and do the shit you aint done

You can turn ya head around as a matter of fact
Hit the rearview mirror Take a look no turning back
You can turn ya head around as a matter of fact
Hit the rearview mirror Take a look no turning back

Reminisce and reflecting all of the years
We was young but we made it and we still here
Do you remember good times...
Do you remember hard times...
Do you remember the days when we set back and blazed
Do you remember the days when we went out and played
Dou you remember...
