I grew up lookin' up to niggas that be on the corner
I can't stop 'cause if I stop, then I'ma disappoint 'em
Niggas hate, but I ain't worried, no I ain't worried 'bout 'em
My only goal is to keep courage and to make it off the bottom
Oh, I was raised by the Chinese store
Even though I ain't Chinese though
Right by there is my Y and the corner store
Diamond girls guarantee you see all the hoes
I was raised where the thugs lay
Where the little niggas die, but I'ma maintain
I'm okay, don't worry 'bout me, I'm in God's hands
I just hope that the world understand who I am
Ambition
Easy to talk about money but it's harder to get it
Uh, they gon' hate me for my ambition
The only thing I worry 'bout is how my grandma doin'
I'm doin' good, I'm stayin' healthy, now I'm makin' music
I'm gon' strive to success and I'ma try my best
I'm fourteen and already thinkin' about death
Damn, I was raised by the dead end
Where fake ass niggas always tryna fit in
Ambition, I'm young and ambitious
The dreams that I have, I'ma dream of mad livin'
I cannot caught no feelings when no one else feel ut
I cannot play my cards with no dealer to deal it
I'm just livin' with patience, dedication and greatness
How can I be good when the hood so-so my validation?
I wish my grandma was still here to watch me grow up
I wish four clippers still here to watch me blow up
I guess things never go how you want it to
So I don't wanna be the man, I'm goin' to, uh
I was raised where the thugs lay
Where the little niggas die, but I'ma maintain
I'm okay, don't worry 'bout me, I'm in God's hands
I just hope that the world understand who I am
Ambition
Easy to start off your dreams, but it's harder to finish
They gon' hate me for my ambition
I was raised by Wale and them
Get on the beat and let it breathe like oxygen
Every time they do things I follow them
But in a while a lil' nigga gon' inspire them
Yeah, I even seen real niggas bail
Seen one got these beads reppin' lke a Nextel
Same ones hollin' that they won't tell
Now you think you real 'cause your motherf*ckin' phone tell?
Swear these niggas think I'm in that stinker than a skunk tail
Swap my phones now my eyes liftin' like a dumbbell
Niggas sell their soul just to get a f*ckin' record deal
So tell me, how you f*ckin' real?
My momma told me, do me but just don't ever steal
But I do it anyway just to keep my pockets filled
They say one day I'm just gon' run up in the wrong house
And a nigga gon' come around and blow my brains out
Deadbeat daddy, grandma gone, that's all I know
They like me in the city, called Pompano
Granddad was a player, he was with another woman
I just look 'em in his eyes and I see me right through him
I swear my throat hurt from tryna swallow my pride
My daddy f*ckin' his god-daughter, she just 25
They got 3 kids and there's one just 5
That means he been f*ckin' with her ever since I was 9
I just opened my eyes and let my ears listen
Friends ain't friends, lil' nigga, pay attention
Swear my only friends J-Crack and Lil Raw
Man, we go back like Al Capone and cigars
And I know that some niggas don't want me to succeed
I just look past it, keep balanced, stay on my two feet
Got to watch my back 'cause niggas playin' for keeps
My uncle looked at the weed, he ain't even got money to eat
And God damn, I swear my life crazy
Other people peep my swag, now they think I got a Grammy
I'ma live my life
Man, you never know, I might die tonight
But God with me
And I ain't gon' leave this world on no plain mission
That's my ambition
I was raised where the thug lay
Where the little niggas die, but I'ma maintain
I'm okay, don't worry 'bout me, I'm in God's hands
I just hope that the world understand who I am
Ambition
Easy to talk about money but it's harder to get it
Uh, they gon' hate me for my ambition
Yeah, half my life spent tryna find somethin' to do with the time we got
And the time we got is usually spent tryna find somethin'
And look, I heard behind every destined man, there's a surprised woman
I just gotta stay humble even though I'm hungry
I thought to myself, you ain't got no ambition, you ain't livin'
