Lyrics Can I Vent - Tai Boujie

Can I vent for a minute?
My grandma Tisha died when my mama was in prison
And when she was in prison, I ain't got to see my siblings
Separated for three years
Separated by the system

Can I vent for a minute?
The whole city label me a minace
Hoes who act tough, they play victim
They tried to get me gone but God said he weren't finished
I came in the game did everythin' y'all say I wouldn't

Can I vent for a minute?
Eighteen, I was supposed to be in college
But I'm fightin' aggravated battery charges
I'm 'posed to read books but I'm gettin' booked in jail
They put me in orange
That's my first time goin' to hell

Can I vent for a minute?
My lawyer tryna fight but we ain't winnin'
The judge still sentence me to prison
Four years to be exact
He ain't even show no pity
What the fuck I'm 'posed to do?
I gotta take care of my siblings

Can I vent for a minute?
Imagine doin' time with yo' mama
Once in that county, I told my mama that I'm sorry
I'm 'posed to do better ma
I'm your oldest daughter
Generation cursed, I'm finally feelin' that you started

Can I vent for a minute?
I fucked the big time, put a nigga in my business
Actin' like he for me
Whole time that nigga plottin'
Bareface when he robbed me
Damn near took my whole apartment

Can I vent for a minute?
I'm cryin', goin' crazy in my cell
I ain't got sit when I finally leave this jail
I'm prayin' that I prevail 'cause I took too many loses
If I ever catch up with you pussy nigga it's gon' cost you

Can I vent for a minute?
Sometimes it ain't good to call home
I wanna hear no bad news on the phone
My heart damn near stopped when they said my bestie gone
I'm like man, how the fuck?
Just last week we on the phone

Can I vent for a minute?
Can I vent for a minute?
Damn
Can I vent for a minute?
Listen
Can I vent for a minute?
Can I vent for a minute?

Can I vent for a minute?
Life may seem hard, but it's all learned lessons
And I pray it don't last long situations temporary
Just pray you make it through the smile
Even when it's hectic

Can I vent for a minute?
My sister only fifteen and she pregnant
Lord knows that lil Nay-Nay wasn't ready
I'm preachin' but I'm stressin' 'cause this news I wasn't ready
I left it up to God 'cause they say that "baby's blessing"

Can I vent for a minute?
I was out, I ain't never need a penny
Everybody know that Tai-Tai independent
And when I did time it seem like everybody vanished
I got way more love for my fans than my family

Can I vent for a minute?
I'm glad I could get this off my chest
And my past, it could finally get some rest
I'm prayin' for the best but always ready for the worst
Feel like my whole life a curse
'Cause I'm goin' through the most

Can I vent for a minute?
Can I vent for a minute?
Listen
Can I vent for a minute?
Just let me vent for a minute
Damn
Can I vent for a minute?

Listen like
It seem like my whole life everybody
Always just got some shit to say 'bout Tai-Tai
But like
Don't nobody know what Tai-Tai done been through
Like I don't put you hoes in my game room enough
For y'all to be knowin', what I been goin' through
Like for real

But like, listen
Like I seen somebody on Instagram
He was like "I'm glad like we don't look like what we been through"
And that's just some real shit
'Cause I don't look like shit I been through
