[Verse 1: Kobie Dee]
Shit's been a hell of a year
Faced up to all of my fears
Got clean and got focused, I picked up the pad and I put down the drugs and the beer
Wifey stay happy as fuck
She see me making a buck
She seen me down at the bottom, the pills I was popping
But now she can see that we up, she call that shit luck
I do this all for my daughters, man, ain't no one stopping this grind
Put food on the table, put clothes on they back
And I'm feeding them knowledge to open they mind, give all of my time
Taking my daughter to school, give her the right kind of tools
Teach her the rights from the wrongs and the lessons I learnt
From me hanging with some of them fools
Now I gotta move, circle be small as it is
Only my girl and my kids
My mother, my brothers, my sisters, my aunties and uncles
And those that are down with the biz
Don't roll with no gang, I'm cool by myself
Mind on my money, I'm focused on wealth
Money don't make me and money won't break me
But I've gotta family that might need the help
I'm top of the shelf, everything top of the line
Mumma know we doing fine
You could get lost in material living, but I got the kind of shit money can't buy
Just count all my blessings
God gave me so many lessons
Made it through all that depression
I took a look at myself and the damage I caused and I channeled my inner aggression
Took time on my own, moved out the city
Looked at the gratitude over my pity
Changed up my diet, got back to the gym
Now I'm keeping my focus when my head get shitty
New number, new phone
Address and home
Peace in my mind when I get time alone
Blocked out the bullshit I kept for so long
Now I'm stopping at nothing, I stay in my zone, I stay in my zone
(Stay in my zone, I stay in my zone)
[Verse 2: Peter James]
Ayy, yeah, ayy
Back and I'm better
Balance that pain with that pleasure
Never gon' crack under pressure
Hustled and motivated 'til we paid
But we stay in our game, never changed for the cheddar
Been a long time coming
Murdered these beats, I done it
Kicking that knowledge, I punt it
Shit that I sing got me doing O.T
So my kids don't struggle, my brothers, or mothers
Hip-hop is everything
Resonated with me as a youngin, just vibing on beats
I always looked up to artists like MC
I valued the message and what he believed
I wasn't trapping, I was just rapping
Couple of flips, it was so I could eat
Came a long way from that house up in Ashy
With me and my brothers, yeah, RIP Deece, yeah, RIP Deece
