[Verse]
Child of the city that I was born in
As we move forward we cut losses
See through the smiles that they enforcing
Busy tryna see my fortune
Had to get shallow shit up off him
Keep my torch lit
N***as wanna see me on the curb
Sleeping under the earth, bleeding or something worse
Have my, feet in the dirt with my head in the sky
Stuck between the love and the lies, muster my pride
Why they wan try me for some of my shine?
Duffels under my eyes, but I tried today
It's gon' be quiet when I find some faith
Bless my momma's grave
She helped me down, helped me find my way
Showed me hope when my skies was grey
Helped me find my way
She showed me hope when my skies was grey
Showed me hope when my skies was grey

[Outro]
Showed me hope when my skies was grey
