Sometimes I think
I was born to be a sinner
Like J cole L.P
In high school
we all bumped Cole man
Y'all couldn't tell me
Shit I was like seventeen
just got the whip
Used to burn the mixed cd
and ride around smoke weed
Was tryna make a profit
But I couldn't do the math
Now my words speak life
Shoutout to my homie Av
And just last week someone
pointed out what I didn't have
But if I had listen to
those role models
I would still be in class
I grew up in the suburbs
Where they keep you on a path
Where the value of a dollar
was something
that most kids couldn't grasp
Music and culture
A place about
business and vultures
Where the idea of a rap album
Was some shit
that made people laugh
I knew I didn't fit in
So I never went to class
Spent a lot of time in the city
And I identified with that
We all come from different
backgrounds man you
don't know the half
We can all see eye to eye
when it comes to
laying down a track
When I was younger
the white kids would laugh
and say I was acting black
The black kids would call me
a fag until they heard me
on a track
It's all good
Cuz I exist
At least I have that
Just loop this piano and shit man
But I be all bad
Maybe what you
think I do is stupid
But it really means a lot to me
And I'm sorry
I didn't see you last week
We didn't even
get a chance to speak
But you know this shit
was hard growing up
But you know it's all good now
Baby it's me
And I promise
I won't change for the world
Let's all try
and be the best we can be
Cuz it's all good now it's all good
Don't think about it
even though you should
Just let it go
Cuz we got you
Don't let me go
Cuz I got you
The other day
I saw my high school teacher
and he was like hey
How are things going Cam
I heard they're going great
Everyone 'round here's
proud of you
for taking that break
From college
even though we all thought
that it was a mistake
My other friend texted me
asking how I was doing
She said how
'bout those plans for college
Are those all ruined
I guess it takes
a lot for people to believe in you
But that just motivated me
To go say fuck your degree
You gotta grind
a little bit harder man
Just wait you'll all see
In like 3 years with a buyin'
I was still so me
Am I ever gonna make it
What do they say about me
I'll probably never get the respect
I feel that I deserve be
Now there's E-Mail's
and messages like
I'm so proud of you
From the same people
that once said
look Cam I'm doubting you
At sixteen I let em' know
what I was about to do
And they laughed
well guess what look
The joke's on you
Maybe what you
think I do is stupid
But it really means a lot to me
And I'm sorry
I didn't see you last week
We didn't even
get a chance to speak
But you know this shit
was hard growing up
But you know it's all good now
Baby it's me
And I promise
I won't change for the world
Let's all try
and be the best we can be
Cuz it's all good now it's all good
Don't think about it
even though you should
Just let it go
Cuz we got you
Don't let me go
Cuz I got you
Cuz I got you
