I was 3 when my old man left in the wind
Pushed me in the ocean turned around and said swim
That's what I did even though I was scared
I kept kicking' cause a person only floats when he's dead
If I had one wish it, wouldn't be wealth
It would be that if we could only love our selves
Cause everyday is like kill a million dreams
And it seems like everybody on different teams
I don't mean to get deep I'm just speakin the truth
We in a the 2 bedroom trailer with a leak in the roof
I ate potatoes every way u could ever make em
When your hungry got to use your imagination
My mom did her best she would hug and kiss me
Even though we had more f*cking mice then Disney
I still had some polos and plenty of draws
While she was livin life with the same 2 bras
The lightning strikes like like Garth safe under rows
Life is cold like an Eskimo in summer clothes
I suffered softly but never let nothing stop me
And I miss my little girl like somebody shot me
I was 3 when my old man left in the wind
Pushed me in the ocean turned around and said swim
That's what I did even though I was scared
I kept kicking' cause a person only floats when he's dead
I be prison made cross f*ck diamonds and jewels
Still flier than Jordan when he was runnin with bulls
Some many shots been missed
So many cops was pissed
So many songs I have writtin in the past on this
Is a lot of imposters tryin to tell you the same
But how the f*ck can I explain
No one knows my pain
From the cord on my nable
I was a g from the cradle
I don't snort because they said that bitch caine killed abel
I'm not sure u understand it
But I must express this
Santa clause is on heroin but there ain't no presents
And mom all this shit makes my eyes so watery
Now I understand why u try to win the lottery
We gone make it I promise
Don't let the memories haunt us
I remember we was at the bus stop in pajamas
Tryin to run from that brought so many tears
Bad luck like we must have broke a thousand mirrors
I was 3 when my old man left in the wind
Pushed me in the ocean turned around and said swim
That's what I did even though I was scared
I kept kicking' cause a person only floats when he's dead
I was 3 when my old man left in the wind
Pushed me in the ocean turned around and said swim
That's what I did even though I was scared
I kept kicking' cause a person only floats when he's dead
