Texas..



[Hook - 2x]

You see I
am what I am, and it is what it is

You'd
feel how I feel, if you been where I been

Live what I live, see what I see

So get
out my ear, and just let me be



[Paul
Wall]

I'm a survivor of the struggle, I
lived life hard

Single mama with half a
job, I was raised by God

No dad, the only
role model I had

Was a ounce of that white
powder, in a Ziplock bag

I don't brag about
the struggles, I endured as a child

You
don't know the pain I went through, to create
this smile

I got one life to live, know I'm
tal'n bout

So I enjoy it, cause I earned
everything that I got

They 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
obsurred, 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



[Hook - 2x]



[Poppy]

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 shit

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

And get what I can get, see 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
