Adopted Child Songtext
(Jai Beats on the track, boy)
(Let that shit ride, Eighty8)

It's a hard knock life, it's gon' be alright
Win or lose, it's part of life
Wanted this shit so bad I stayed up all night
Put my all in this song, put my pain in the mic
[?] on the gang, I been climbing up the mountain
My mama had all boys but I feel so adopted
My destiny upon
I been tryna take off like a rocket

I ain't really into playing games
Gave it my all, I risked everything
[?] just for me to spit this real pain
Real relate to real, get the fuck up out my way
Never been a yes man, always meant what I say
I'm quick to bust a nigga top, real caution where I stay
I'll never talk behind your back, I'll always say it face to face
See, loyalty don't come around no more
Don't really fuck with groupie hoes, they be doing the most
Don't get me mad, I explode
She said she love me, I don't know
'Cause I been broken before
Feel like I been fighting for my life, I been on trial
It's been a minute since I was happy and I laugh and I smile

It's a hard knock life, it's gon' be alright
Win or lose, it's part of life
Wanted this shit so bad I stayed up all night
Put my all in this song, put my pain in the mic
[?] on the gang, I been climbing up the mountain
My mama had all boys but I feel so adopted
My destiny upon
I been tryna take off like a rocket

I looked my brother in his eyes, I told him I'm here forever
It was raining, it was cold, we ain't even had no shelter
[?] everything's gonna be alright
Let's do this shit for Trevon, man, just make it through the night
I can't tell you every night that I done cried
I tend to drift off and find a safe place so I can cry
Eviction notice on the door, my brothers posted at the store
Tryna find a way to survive so we grind all night, you know it's kill on sight
I been here for a minute, feel like I'm stuck in the beginning (It's the beginning, yeah)
Oh, I don't know no Roxanne, pray that I won't be toxic

It's a hard knock life, it's gon' be alright
Win or lose, it's part of life
Wanted this shit so bad I stayed up all night
Put my all in this song, put my pain in the mic
[?] on the gang, I been climbing up the mountain
My mama had all boys but I feel so adopted
My destiny upon
I been tryna take off like a rocket
