I'm a survivor of the struggle,

I lived life hard

Single mama with half a job,

I was raised by

GodNo dad, the only role model

I hadWas a ounce of that white powder in a

Ziplock bag

I don't brag about the struggles,

I endured as a child

So you don't know the pain

I went through, to create this smile

I got one life to live, know

I'm talkin' 'bout?

So I enjoy it, cause

I earned everything that

I gotThey hate what

I got, I hear 'em with they cape talk

They thinking that my life, was a cake walk

I'm a man of principles,

I live by my word

So it's obscured when

I hear sour words

They gon' get what they deserve but

I don't wish no harm

What goes around comes around so partna' you been warned

In the midst of all the trouble,

I still remain calm'

Cause sunny days, will follow the storm' man, just let me be

You see I am what

I am and it is what it is

You'd feel how

I feel, if you been where

I beenLive what

Somebody questioned, if

I got the right to recite what

I spit'Cause

I've never been indicted or divided a brick

But my life is grit, all types of crisis and ****

But I decided to risk it all to try to slide in the mix

And get what

I can getSee,

I'm fighting negative bars

I knew it wouldn't be easy but no one said it be hard

As it is,

I mean the evil in the heart of these men

Got me wondering, if

I'll ever see the reward at the end of the road

It's kind of hard to remember your goals

When you grow where not many live to get old

I played the cards that

I was given and never listen to those

Who think different 'cause they inner soul is bitter and cold

I seen death and folk get destroyed by do'

Nevertheless

I'm blessed so your boy got hope

I show love to get it is a beautiful feelin'

If you hate me then blow a **** 'cause it's a mutual feelin'

You see I am what

I am and it is what it is

You'd feel how

I feel, if you been where

I beenLive what

I live, see what

I seeSo get out my ear and just let me be

See I am what

I am and it is what it is

You'd feel how

I seeSo get out my ear and just let me be

All outsiders looking in, think they know where

I beenTrying to be my friend 'cause of the position

I'm inThey know

Slim Thug a hustler, that's destined to win

So I guess they figured they can hold my cotail in

But I ain't the type to play that roll and sell a ***** gold

Pretend it's all cool when

I know you a hoe'

Cause you'll do it again, if you done it befo'

It's just a matter of time or you doin' some mo'

I done witnessed all type of snake ****** and hoes

From my family to my friends, to these *****es

I knowIt'll surprise you, how much a lil' change bring change

You get a couple dollas and people ain't the same

They quick to holla at you capping now, since you rapping now

See them the type of folks, you need to be packing 'round'

Cause first time to miss 'em when you passing a blunt

They plotting up on you, trying to pull 'em a stunt

You see I am what

I am and it is what it is

You'd feel how
