Avenida Flows
Lyrics
Don’t ask when i’ma blow, as of now i can’t confirm a date
Right now all that i can show, is that the good can turn to great
Grew up didn’t have a dad, it was from my mom i learned the way
She was working double jobs, barely earning any pay
Lately i been feeling good, i got a chance that i’m take
I coulda watched my sister die, when dude put a gun in the frame
She was like red riding hood, staring death right in the face
If he would’ve took the shot, i know my life wouldn’t be the same
This is food for my soul, get the rest up off my plate
Mostly like to keep it tough, but i’ll save that for another day
I think a lot of people scared, afraid of a little change
When a couple years ago, i only had a little change
Not a dollar to my name, could hardly rent a spot to stay
Prolly cause i lost my job, on top my shoulders put the blame
And my sister got it worse, sis i really felt ashamed
I just hope that you know, I’m so proud of what you’ve made, yeah
No one coulda seen it like this
No body’s had my back longer than Melo, back when we was just kids
Now he finna have a kid
Thats gone be my lil nephew
I know money look a lil bit tight right now, one day i’ma bless you
And i can’t break me a promise
I done made too many to mama
Tryna put her eyes on places, that you can’t get to unless you got commas
I ain’t really in it for the fame, i’m tryna gather food and get the fam in a seat at the table
At a resort, never had to resort to moving Cain, cause i was Abel
So i need the cash or the money or the cream or the cheese spread all over my bagel
Tryna get a little more bills, Benjamins, i ain’t talking bout paying for the cable
If i cop a horse, its a Porsche so i need a crib big enough for a couple stables
And a room to store all the cash cause my stacks gonna be too big for a staple
Really I'm thankful, and i don’t really care that they telling me to quit
Spent too much time always trying to convince, one day me and the fam gone be rich
Stay on the road, won’t end in a ditch
I ain’t got the pedal to the metal, when they telling me to rush more
Always being patient so i’ll end up on the Rushmore
Doing everything I can, so in 10 years i ain’t wishing that i done more
I just gotta work hard, and play harder
Tryna build a legacy like Dwayne Carter
If they wanna fade, then i’ll have to play barber
I’ma get it shaking like i’m bout to shake Harlem
I can’t settle when the meal’s five course
I won’t settle when the crib’s by shores
Only way i’ll settle’s if i’m meeting with god or the devil and the only thing left is my corpse
I ain’t finna to die without everybody knowing that i gave it my best try
Even through the tests I always had my head high
Never had to be the person having to pretend I
Wasn’t gonna make it
When i blow up, i just hope i ain’t jaded
Unable to enjoy things i’ve awaited
Hoping all my dreams don’t become outdated
I just wanna call my mom and tell her that i made it
If her time comes before that, then i’m gonna feel like i failed
Seems like time ain’t on my side, everyday i be growing more scared
Scared for myself, scared for sister and anybody else who knew her
So I go hard in the present
For the one who gave me a future
Don’t ask when i’ma blow, as of now i can’t confirm a date
Right now all that i can show, is that the good can turn to great
Grew up didn’t have a dad, it was from my mom i learned the way
