Jsteezzy - My Beginnings(Interlude) Lyrics

I'm giving y'all an extension I hope y'all sit and listen
It truly is my intention to lessen all of my tension
So imma need your attention for a couple of minutes
So follow me as I guide y'all to a different dimension
Was born into family raised by a single woman
I always rap about giving momma shit that she couldn't
I'm always mentioning momma in damn near every song
But if y'all went through what we did I'd swear y'all sing along
Lived inna south suburb means I grew up inna nice home
Probably smallest on the block but I called it my home
I lived with momma and grandma they raised me all alone
My pops was up in the city till he died in my arms
I had a pool had any game system you can think of
Momma was broke yet she gave me riches more than enough
She told me when I got older she gave me all she could
Spend her last $20 dollars to make sure I was good
My nigga Tommy lived down the street on my block
He more like brother my day 1 from the start
He saw me grow and he can back up what I be spitting
Steezzy the truth I've been the truth from the very beginning
When I was 11 moved from Lansing to the south side
My granny down the street just take the bus be there in 5
My grandma living downtown man I loved that ride
But when you from where I came from you'd never realize
I went to school full of niggas with white teachers too
My teacher said I ain't shit like everyday at school
Got bullied cause momma was struggling to pay for food
I was angry I loved Chicago it ain't love me too
And because of frustration anger rained down on you
I was angry cause it was cold in the winter time
I swear it was colder inside than outside
And in the summertime hot asl couldn't sleep
The sounds of Sirens and babies crying kept me from peace
I tried to hoop with the kids but the kids was bogus
I tried to protect myself they'd just jump me with friends
Momma ain't know the reason I never hung out with them
I told her I ain't want to another truth again
I fell into deep sadness called depression
I ain't give af about shit not even myself
My granny told me that God was planning sum big
You just gotta wait for it and it'll be good again
I miss the days it was me and granny after school
She kept me from falling into sum shit I ain't even knew
She'd cook for me and made sure that I was cool
She loved me more than I loved myself in those moments
Now I'm looking back humbled about those moments
How I was broken and chosen be more than the city showed me
How I felt lonely but never phony ain't no one know me
Riding down stony it feels more homey I noticed slowly
I know it better than Lansing cause it watched it more closely
When I go back to Lansing bunch of shit I never noticed
When I go back it feels like I never really know it
See 2020 was clear enough that I had to focus
Cause I still be depressed still feel a lil broken
The only difference I fill the empty and show it open
The only thing that I'm hoping my future is bright and ready
Too keep it steady for me to live it bring up the hidden
Yeah I got insecurities but shit I do own em'
I got the vision to see what's written cause god told me
When I mean god told me I meant he really showed me
He planted my seed deep in the dirt of good women
I'm 16 still got more room to make them glisten
See I just took your attention for a couple of minutes
I just took y'all onna journey on rooting my beginnings

I'm giving y'all an extension I hope y'all sit and listen
It truly is my intention to lessen all of my tension
So imma need your attention for a couple of minutes
So follow me as I guide y'all to a different dimension
