My pain
My struggle
My victory
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Hard times I been through but them days are now behind me
I may be living the dream but them scars still remind me
I'm a savage but I'm tiny
Soak and wet I might weigh ninety
If you get my timing wrong pull my foot up outcha heinie
Take for granted cause I'm kindly
My demeanor don't define me
If you ever wanna find me
Leave a message on my IG
Snapchat, FaceBook, Twitter, or Tumblr
Running plays never fumble
Name Fame boy wonder
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
From all the tears mama shed
She was hurt and she was scared
Cause young Fame was in the bed
In a coma almost dead
Running tubes through my head
Blessed my food when I'm fed
Giving thanks to the Almighty and believing what he said
G mama always use to pray for me
When I need always made a way for me
She my rock and my day to day for me
No complaints always use to care for me
Always there for me, never missed a beat
Brought the clothes on my back and the shoes on my feet
Put the food on the table
Paid the lights and the cable
Even though I was disable
She always kept me stable
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
Ain't no crying no mo
Cuz I ain't dying no mo
I just trying to live my life
What is pain
What is struggle
You see my victory and I've recovered
What is pain
What is struggle
You see my victory and I've recovered
What is pain
What is struggle
You see my victory and I've recovered
What is pain




What is struggle
You see my victory and I've recovered
