Fourteen begging for change on street corners

Tryna catch that city bus hustle up three quarters

Couple hours made twenty dollars

Back of that bus smellin' sour

Somebody ain't take a shower but nonetheless

I get off walking down Colfax to get my music

Was too infatuated with rapping to be a shooter

Mama linked me with this producer who had steam

My rap dream's now in the hands of a crack fiend

My life hadn't made much of it was still growin'

My life optimistic excited to keep goin'

Then I died

Today we bury the old self

The one driven by pain and performance

That version has died

Uh uh yeah uh wake up

Wake up wake up wake up wake up

Uh yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah

Uh yeah yeah yeah wake up

Uh yeah yeah

Killin' off what was old

Brand new life I rose

Died at the foot of the 'cross

Woke up right next to the throne

Look if I cut this leash

It might go bad for ya

I got some angels and saints in the heavens

Who might call my dad on ya yeah

Call collect if you collectin' charges

Pardon me but I can get you pardoned

Part of me is partial but he probably

Part the sea with a stick when he come through

I gave my life like an offering

I gave my life at the alter

Altered my ego from tryna be 'migos with evil

They wanted to off me

Off of me and on to him

I been off and on again

All my kids was born in sin

Jesus make 'em born again

Some us related by birth

Some us related by blood

If you know the difference

Then you go the distance

'Cause you know the meaning of love

It's only take me of life
