Acting like if you walk by on a street
And you’re walking on concrete
And you saw a rose growing out of concrete
Even if it had messed up petals
And it was a little...to the side
You would marvel at just seeing a rose growing through concrete
As a youngin all I had was a dream
Rapping to myself as my mama used to scream
Papa getting violent and he beating her again
They just feeling stressed cause they tryna pay the rent
Papa you a g though you did wrong
Mama you an angel cause you stayed strong
Papa it’s alright we have weak moments
Mama you a soldier cause you keep holding
But some days we ain’t have shit
And some nights I was asking
Why we so poor all my friends not?
Just jealous of what my friends got
I was hungry and you fed me love
Damn, you gave me yours and it wasn’t enough
Yet, I took it all and went out a craze
You made it feel like home and without a place
Working like slaves and I’m so sorry
I’m grateful for the things you done did for me
Coming home from school disrespecting
Acting like I ain’t have blessings
Damn mama, that cancer won’t get you
if you tryna to go won’t let you
A careless ass kid but I’m tryna change it
I just need to tell you I appreciate it
Acting like if you walk by on a street
And you’re walking on concrete
And you saw a rose growing out of concrete
Even if it had messed up petals
And it was a little...to the side
You would marvel at just seeing a rose growing through concrete
As a youngin all I had was a dream
You was my brother, my hero, my team
I was down for you, all you did was sell
I was growing up, while you was in and out of jail
Waiting at the court room all of us silent
You was never home, you was always so violent
How you think I felt when I visited the prison
Like where my brother at why my partner gone missing
I was gone distant, but that was just hurt
From all those nights, those fights, those words
Shit we used to argue all the time, I hated you
And witnessing your drug dealing, I hated too
It was my birthday and there’s some next shit
All those times you got your ass arrested
Family stressing, I’m surprised you ain’t dead
From a life of crime and the war with the feds
How you thought bout what you put me through? Huh
And all the things I had to do for you
Like deal with the people who spoke your name
Like this bitch who disrespected you, I broke her frame
But it’s okay, I’m your baby sis
And some day I just may be rich
And I got you, I ain’t gotta say it
I just want for you to tell me you appreciate it
Acting like if you walk by on a street
And you’re walking on concrete
And you saw a rose growing out of concrete
Even if it had messed up petals
And it was a little...to the side
You would marvel at just seeing a rose growing through concrete.
