Lil Durk Intro (Freestyle)
[Verse 1]
Day after day, I dealt with a lot
When I blew up, they wanted to be around me
Watch who you flip your money around and show how much you have because they gonna end up stealing your own money
My grandma died of cancer when I was 5 years old
Roaches and water bugs on the floor, I seen that all at once, man
I been real since day one, but I watch who I keep in my circle
Remember in the house, it was so hot, we had to use the fan
My grandad died when I was 13, and that made me hurt so bad
Stop tryna be like your favorite rapper, and just be your own self
Girls out here getting pregnant at 12 and 15 years old, I know that all
As I grew even older, the more I knew stuff was real
When I was 7 years old, I found a gun next to a cushion, and, then, I put it back, and, then, I told my mom
A lot of kids didn't grow up like the kids I knew, they got hit with extension cards and sticks
[Talking]
Real talk
Kids, I knew, they got hit with extension cards and sticks, for real
It was no joke getting hit with belts, I remember that stuff
Sometimes, you'll get slapped by your own mom, that's real, for real
[Verse 2]
Basketball was no game, people got shot over it
My mom steady getting harder on my back because she care about me
My cousin grew up throwing gang signs, finding guns, and he in jail now for allegedly murdering somebody
People be snitching on theyself after doing a hit, then, they wonder why they in prison
I stay up early in the morning, I don't get no sleep
A lot of kids gotta take care of they mom, and they gotta pay the bills
I take care of my mom, I have to bear with her, and I spend a lot of time with her
People die everyday in my city, it's about 80 murders in my city, It's the murder capital in my city
Your friend, you thought was your friend, will switch on you for a 1 million dollar lottery ticket to cash it in for theyself
They cannot discipline kids nowadays, even if you whoop them for breaking in somebody house or doing a crime
You know how it is nowadays, I'm 14, but I know this a lot
Burning houses, and jumping through gates, sneaking out the house, I seen it all, but I never did it
[Outro]
Real talk
I seen it all
Yeah, yeah
Swagt Ty'jule, and I'm out, real talk
