Melvoni Oh My
[Intro]
And it's funny 'cause, I might be bended, but I'm never broken
You know they say, "Beautiful souls emerge from ugly experiences"
And that just mean, through all the trials and tribulations
All that pain, you just gotta just take grasp of it
And just, come out stronger in the end
It's Melvoni
[Verse 1]
I look in the mirror with my eyes closed
I don't like the shit I see when they open up
They keep tellin' me I needa open up
But I'm throwin' up my A, bitch, you know what's up
I got it on my own, ain't nobody gave me nothin'
Before the rap, I was gettin' all my money from the thuggin'
I came a long way, from expectin' hand-outs
I told myself, "Put your f..ckin' hands down"
[Chorus]
And my, oh my, oh my, my world is in shambles
And my, oh my, oh my, my life is a gamble
They wouldn't understand half the shit that we been through
Came up from the trenches, growin' up it wasn't simple
We ain't get to do all the shit regular kids do
Somehow, we still got the blame for all the shit that we didn't do
Look at where I came from, look who I became 'cause
We was sinkin', and I swear nobody would come save us
Since a youngin' I was thuggin' and gettin' this f..ckin' paper
'Cause the system tried to slave us
And for a long, long, long, long time, I been on my own
For a long, long, long, long time, with nowhere to go
And my, oh my, oh my, my world is in shambles
And my, oh my, oh my, my life is a gamble
[Verse 2]
But that's okay, it ain't nothin' we ain't used to
Wish I could play with other niggas like we used to
And I hopped off the porch since I was 14
And since then, me and my niggas slangin' iron in these streets
I stuff up my pockets, I got 5 in these jeans
And I swear if I make 10, then I gave 5 to my team
The other 5 to my bitch, but she be lyin' to me
I gotta watch myself, 'cause I cannot die in these streets
[Chorus]
For a long, long, long, long time, I been on my own
For a long, long, long, long time, with nowhere to go
And my, oh my, oh my, my world is in shambles
And my, oh my, oh my, my life is a gamble
They wouldn't understand half the shit that we been through
Came up from the trenches, growin' up it wasn't simple
We ain't get to do all the shit regular kids do
Somehow, we still got the blame for all the shit that we didn't do
Look at where I came from, look who I became 'cause
We was sinkin' and I swear nobody would come save us
Since a youngin' I was thuggin' and gettin' this f..ckin' paper
'Cause the system tried to slave us
