Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can drown in my pain it’s like a ocean but keep swimming
Reminisce about them days when we stuck inside the trenches
And I don’t do this for fame I like to talk & they just listen
My dawg crossed me up it made me strong so I ain’t tripping
But for my real brothers I still call to see how they living
Send my doggy some bones cause he still locked inside a prison
Tryna moms a home and that’s what motivate to get it
I do this for the youth you could be anything you wishing

My doggy out so it’s back to the grind
I know he take care of business so he ain’t wasting time
I got connect wit the realest that wanna see me shine
I cut off all of the fake ones ain’t wanna see me climb
Just watch me pop like ima skillet
I'm on top until they kill me
Made some racks my palms was itching
Never had to whip in kitchens
But I swiped like I was made for it
I make them hear me through my raps some shit you can’t ignore
I came from eating beans & Franks sleeping on granny floor
That’s motivation to my soul
So ima keep hitting the road
Until I’m running out of shows
Them people left me alone
Cause they was jealous about growth
But I can’t trip cause ima Goat
You can drown in my pain it’s like a ocean but I keep swimming
Reminisce about them days when we stuck inside the trenches
And I don’t do this for fame I like to talk & they just listen
My dawg crossed me up it made me strong so I ain’t tripping
But for my real brothers I still call to see how they living
Send my doggy some bones cause he still locked inside a prison

Tryna moms a home and that’s what motivate to get it
I do this for the youth you could be anything you wishing
