Atlantic Avenue Songtext
We from around the way, grew up watching Dame
Now I got property outside the state
Choose to see my legends as they was before the social space
Gotta leave the crib, nothing dangerous, just local hate
Made it through the fire and they acting like I'm supposed to break
Homies that I grew up with was out here selling coke and weight
I was in the crib, smoking J's, bumping Hope and Mace
Spending for the culture that I'm hoping that they don't erase
Urban legend, bitch, I'm majestic, I barely show my face
Tryna be outside, but like a tree, I kinda grow in place
Now I got property outside the state
Choose to see my legends as they was before the social space
Gotta leave the crib, nothing dangerous, just local hate
Made it through the fire and they acting like I'm supposed to break
Homies that I grew up with was out here selling coke and weight
I was in the crib, smoking J's, bumping Hope and Mace
Spending for the culture that I'm hoping that they don't erase
Urban legend, bitch, I'm majestic, I barely show my face
Tryna be outside, but like a tree, I kinda grow in place
That don't mean a nigga tryna hide, it's just my home is great
Rather spend my time drinking coffee by a coastal lake
I crave ease, 'cause I remember times when I was broke for days
Only people feeling joy cut the noise and chose the pain
Niggas probably only wanna kill me for my vocal chain
Wisdom that I earned got me feeling like I hope it rain
Emerging to the Oakland, yo
No pity party, had to turn my pain to prosperity
Jealous ones envy, so I show love sparingly
Didn't have shit, now I'm the shit apparently
My parents didn't even believe, but it was clear to me
Face reality, but I'm the kid that dared to dream
Always knew that I'd be great, I guess it's in my genes
Empty pockets, now full of profit
Was juggling narcotics until I realized I'm the product
At selling selfies, records is flying off the shelf
That's what I prayed to God for, health and lots of wealth
I needed help, I had to get it myself
In the county of kings, I'm the thing that all the queens felt They love you more when you elevate
Home be the last place to love you
They respect you when the world hugs you
That's kinda crazy
Trying to leave a legacy for all my unborn babies
So now it's fuck you, pay me
Now I'm a champion like Tom Brady
Was on the wrong path, that led me to sign the autographs daily
Rather spend my time drinking coffee by a coastal lake
I crave ease, 'cause I remember times when I was broke for days
Only people feeling joy cut the noise and chose the pain
Niggas probably only wanna kill me for my vocal chain
Wisdom that I earned got me feeling like I hope it rain
Emerging to the Oakland, yo
No pity party, had to turn my pain to prosperity
Jealous ones envy, so I show love sparingly
Didn't have shit, now I'm the shit apparently
My parents didn't even believe, but it was clear to me
Face reality, but I'm the kid that dared to dream
Always knew that I'd be great, I guess it's in my genes
Empty pockets, now full of profit
Was juggling narcotics until I realized I'm the product
At selling selfies, records is flying off the shelf
That's what I prayed to God for, health and lots of wealth
I needed help, I had to get it myself
In the county of kings, I'm the thing that all the queens felt They love you more when you elevate
Home be the last place to love you
They respect you when the world hugs you
That's kinda crazy
Trying to leave a legacy for all my unborn babies
So now it's fuck you, pay me
Now I'm a champion like Tom Brady
Was on the wrong path, that led me to sign the autographs daily
