Big Wyno - History Repeats Itself Lyrics

I was a sporty little shorty orphan kid with a 40
To little to hold a .40 so a .22 secured me
Surely my maturity was ahead of my age
I stayed quite with the OG's so they all let me stay
Now I sit and reminisce about the chances I've missed
Crying through this song, while I'm praying for Iz
My 16 year old kid serving 2 for a bid
And yeah I know he ain't perfect, but shit nobody is
I raised these kids, I still praise these kids
I still hold on to the memories for kids who don't live
Cause I been that head strong, I been that dead wrong
But La,la la la la la la la life goes on
In den a snakes with only regret for your mistakes
Iz if I could've, I would've saved you from this fate
In a game of High Stakes I would've gone all in
But I was trapped in the game and still stuck in the pen

They say History repeats itself, Repeats Itself
They say his stories like nothing else, like nothin else

This new freedoms placed a shackle on the whole of my heart
Chained to the inmates, pulling them all up out the dark
This rap game is phony crooks, pussy's and marks
I stay pushing the pen so it can open some doors
And I ain't talking bout a Bic, or a cellphone click
Im talking to the convict who like homie we made it
Repping Rated Ill drinking hooch till he faded
And when they talk shit he drops the sucker who hated
I'm not afraid to do time on the mainline and that's facts
I don't want you losing hope while you lay on your rack
I don't want to lose this voice if it can help get you back
Cause now la, la, la, la la lifes on track
I live freely now, but I don't forget where I'm from
That orphaned little runaway still loves his day ones
Still preys on the faker, and then prays for his sons
So if you praise me for rhymes, them you prolly a real 1

They say History repeats itself, Repeats Itself
They say his stories like nothing else, like nothin else
