Hood scars

SAME BLOCK [Intro] Yeah I remember this shit Ayy [Hook] I done made it out the hood, now I’m up Still ride through my old block just because Told my mama, “We gon’ make it,” now we does I can’t lie, sometimes I still think it ain’t enough I done seen a lot of shit, I can’t discuss Lost a couple of my brothers, that shit stuck Now they see me in the city, think I’m lucky They don’t know how many nights I almost gave up [Verse 1] I was posted on the same corner every night Trying to figure out a way to make a dollar right Mama used to call my phone like, “You coming home?” I ain’t have an answer, I was young, I was getting by Now I’m flying out, she asking where I’m staying I just laugh, like, “Ma, I got a room in Vegas” She remember when the rent was late So when I send that money, I don’t even gotta say it My old neighbors see me, tell me, “Boy, you changed” I tell ’em, “Nah, I just finally got paid” Still the same kid, I just think a different way And I still know every street that I used to take [Pre-Hook] I don’t post everything Some shit I keep with me They see the good times They wasn’t there for the misery [Hook] I done made it out the hood, now I’m up Still ride through my old block just because Told my mama, “We gon’ make it,” now we does I can’t lie, sometimes I still think it ain’t enough I done seen a lot of shit, I can’t discuss Lost a couple of my brothers, that shit stuck Now they see me in the city, think I’m lucky They don’t know how many nights I almost gave up [Verse 2] I remember splitting one plate with my brother Now it’s dinner in the hills with my mother Crazy how the same people that ain’t believe Be the first ones saying, “Bro, I’m proud of you” I don’t hold it against ‘em, that’s just how it goes When you’re broke, everybody got somewhere to go When you up, everybody got love to show I just smile, keep it moving, I already know And I still get homesick when I’m out too long Hear a siren in the distance, put me back where I’m from I got everything I prayed for, but I’m thinking of the ones Who ain’t make it out with me — wish they could see what I’ve done [Outro] Yeah Same block, new car Same heart, new scars I ain’t forget none of it I just made it this far
