pops

I grew up in the struggle, learned the hustle from the best, My pops was a king, put his heart to the test, Faced the world with a glare, never showed any fear, Taught me how to stand tall, keep my vision clear. In the shadows of the night, he was lighting the way, With a fire in his soul, never led me astray, From the block to the stars, he was carving my path, Had a heart full of dreams, but the world made him laugh. Saw the pain in his eyes, but he carried the weight, Every lesson he dropped, man, he taught me to elevate, Now I’m spitting these bars, feeling echoes of his voice, In a life full of chaos, he was my only choice. Through the struggles and strife, he was raw and legit, Every scar on my heart, yeah, my dad was the shit, On the corner with the truth, never backed down from pain, With his spirit in my veins, I’m a warrior unchained.
