Lyrics Free - E-Money

Thinking back to class
Never thinking that I'd pass
Walk the hallways my pants sag
Always made my teachers mad

Kept the weed in my book bag
But I made it that's a fact
Got diploma and the hat
But it still seems life is bad

Working nine to five
It's not sufficient for my life
Don't let no one see me cry
So they see me on the rise

Gotta protect all my light
Until the day that I die
All People that see my drive
Know I'm going for a ride

Cherish all the moments
Can't take none of it for granted
All The shit that I'm promoting
Will never just up and vanish

All the people that are loathing
Treat life like it's just some static
So I think they need some coaching
Listened to carter for practice

That's Jay Z or Dwayne
These artists helped me through the pain
Moments full of rain
Turned to knowledge for my brain

So I can't complain
I'll give my happiness away
Just to work and make a name
That'll free me from these chains

Because I wanna be free
I wanna be me
I wanna be E
Damn what's happened to me
Because I wanna be free
I wanna be me
I wanna be E
Damn it's happening see

Thinking back I ask
Why I'm alive to do the task
And I could've lost my life
The day I took my whip and crashed

Weed was in the center stashed
But my friends they kept my back
So I'm gonna boss they life
The day that I get to the bag

And that shit is coming fast
Think I'll do without the mask
Because I can't toss my life
In PTSD from the past

Know I'll make it with this rap
And that's keeping it a stack
The only chains around my neck
Will be ones dripped in the glass

So take the shackles off my wrist
They've been there since I was a kid
Taking ownership of my life
Now I chose the way I live

Promise that I'll make it big
And Show the city what it is
Taking time under the night lights
Now we boutta get it lit

Like I'm jay z or Dwayne
I know I'll be a household name
They always put me up on game
Whenever things went up in flames

So now my lyricisms trained
To be the biggest in the game
My flows blow anyone away
Boy there's no need to explain

I been through the darkest moments
Listened to the carters coaching
Now the game is getting slower
Cause the things that I'm approaching

Will break out of my emotions
You can't stop what has been chosen
All the links are being broken
From what I have set in motion

Because I wanna get away
Look forward to the brighter days
All bullishit that I been through
Makes me who I am today

No matter if they throwing shade
Promise I will light the way
And Know that I'll do what I'm meant to do
To break free from these chains

Because I wanna be free
I wanna be me
I wanna be E
Damn what's happened to me
Because I wanna be free
I wanna be me
I wanna be E
Damn it's happening see
Because I wanna be free
I wanna be me
I wanna be E
Damn what's happened to me
Because I wanna be free
I wanna be me
I wanna be E
Damn it's happening see

Aye
