[Intro: Blu]
This album is dedicated to L.A
And everybody who helped me get home
Every step of the way
[Verse 1: Blu]
Uh, yeah
I was homeless walking Century off an ounce and a bottle of Hennessy
Senselessly asking God why he did what he did to me
Shit, it took me ten years plus to build this up
Twenty-four crates of vinyl and breaks was in that truck
Turntables, speakers, keyboards, my TV and more
My five-thousand dollar microphone was in that truck
Plus all the masters on my G5, random sessions and B-sides
Photos, everything I archive was in that truck
And the same day I got robbed, I find out I'm having a son
But couldn't think about him with this piling up as a child
I wasn't fortunate enough to have a style
So I used to rock holes in my clothes and hand-me-downs
Only time we ate good is when we used to live at granny's house
But granny died, now I'm asking "why am I alive?"
Before I opened my eyes
My younger brother got sentenced with double life
Now all I wanna do is fight
Police killing children too young to read or write
Dismay the president's run because he wasn't right
I started thinking they was after me
I'm financially broke but signed a six million deal, contractually
Above everything, I haven't seen El'
She was going on four, now she going on twelve
I just snapped like a branch off a tree
Like an angel who fell into hell without wings
A lost angel
