Uh

My fifteenth birthday, signed the truth
They still owe me money, and that's the truth
God was just teachin' me how to wait on His time
'Cause I was rushin' trigger-happy, thinkin' I'm losin' my prime
I still remember the time I signed on the dotted line
My mom's just looked, and she cried, even my aunt
We was in the kitchen, I'm thinkin' I'll pay her back
Fast forward, I ain't gave her a dime
It really mess with my mind, 'cause I be thinkin' like
If I deal with my doubt and I was thinkin' right
Or if I knew I was enough would save me sleepless nights
I'm really leanin' on Jesus, I'm on my Lincoln Heights
It felt like Bristol Nights
Just dreamin' 'bout how we gon' fill out the plan
I'm only halfway there, feel like I just began
But I keep my head up 'cause the kids watchin'
That's how it's been since me and Pops was out here drivin' the van
It's like that

Still workin', but it's worth it
Only bought me closer to my purpose
Yeah, I remember the times I was really stressin'
That's why I thank the good Lord for every blessin'
'Cause it's been a long (Long)
A long time, yeah
But I know, know

On the other side, I can't complain at all
Went from Virginia High to shows in Montreal
I was beginning to get involved
The shows turned into tours, the tours turned into more
Yeah, God been raining down, and when He rains, he pours
Way back when me and Raj was kickin' freestyles
And shout out B. Wade, he always held the team down, uh
They both got out the city, livin' dreams now
Maybe dudes back in the town really believe now
My sister on the way to gettin' a college degree
My other sister on her way to singin' better than me, uh
My parents livin' good, it's been a better year
And my girl still by my side she overcome her fear
As far as me, I take it day by day
Life's good, a lot of getaways
Want me to give a ticket, this ain't a giveaway
I can't give you His favor, but I can show you the way

Still workin', but it's worth it
Only bought me closer to my purpose
Yeah, I remember the times I was really stressin'
That's why I thank the good Lord for every blessin'
'Cause it's been a long (Long)
A long time, yeah
But I know, know

Hehehe
It's Bristol, baby
