Текст песни Since I Was a Kid - MC Uriah

yeah
I really tried to keep my peace
But y'all keep sleeping on me
Not even knowing that I was elite
They don't really know about me

Cause since I was a kid I've been
Outside playin' in the street
Always been doing my thing
Still I'm out chasing my dreams
Tell em I do I don't think
I gotta get to my c.r.e.a.m
Did someone say cheese?
Even right now I'm still tucking that heat
So please
Cause
I've been really out in these streets
Where they don't play no peace
Only for keeps
Now I'm just killing these beats
I was really goin like four-five days no sleep
Serving up fiends
Right there with em
I was lucky that a mothafucka didn't OD
Now I barely smoke weed
Cause I've been traumatized
So I'm paranoid feeling like I might just tweak

Gotta thank god
Lets not talk about the deep end
I treat every day like the weekend
If I ever said it then I mean it
Tryna get to places I ain't seen yet
Til my passport is a complete set
Paving a legacy down in cement
I seen the waters and I just leaped in
I learned how to swim when I was sinking
That's where I learned to fight off my demons
Grew up kinda young I had to be a man
Cause I'm a survivor the fuck you thinkin?
Taking my time cause I'm a genius
Giving my life purpose and reason
I'm like an angel check out my wingspan
Keeping my eyes out for signs of treason

Cause since I was a kid I've been
Outside playin' in the street
Always been doing my thing
Still I'm out chasing my dreams
Tell em I do I don't think
I gotta get to my c.r.e.a.m
Did someone say cheese?
Even right now I'm still tucking that heat
So please
Cause
I've been really out in these streets
Where they don't play no peace
Only for keeps
Now I'm just killing these beats
I was really goin like four-five days no sleep
Serving up fiends
Right there with em
I was lucky that a mothafucka didn't OD
Now I barely smoke weed
Cause I've been traumatized
So I'm paranoid feeling like I might just tweak
