From the Bottom

Yeah, let me tell you 'bout the journey

From the bottom to the top, no cap

Started with a dollar and a dream in my pocket

Mama working double shifts, couldn't stop it

Neighborhood was rough, had to stay focused

Every setback made me more ferocious, yeah

Used to walk to school in the same old Jordans

Now I'm pulling up, they can't ignore him

Remember nights when the fridge was empty

Now the whole squad eating, we got plenty, uh

This the story of a kid who never gave up

Turned the pain into power, now we made it, bruh

From the struggle to the hustle to the glow up

This the story everybody need to know, yuh

From the bottom, from the bottom

Now we're shining at the top, that's a promise

From the bottom, from the bottom

Told you we would make it, staying honest

Lost some friends along the way, that's real talk

Some got jealous when I started to walk tall

Stayed loyal to the ones who held me down

Now we're running through the city with the crown, skrrt

Every scar got a lesson that I carry

Every loss made the vision more clearly

Now I'm living what I wrote in my diary

Gang believed when nobody else could hear me, let's go

This the story of a kid who never gave up

Turned the pain into power, now we made it, bruh

From the struggle to the hustle to the glow up

This the story everybody need to know, yuh

From the bottom, from the bottom

Now we're shining at the top, that's a promise

From the bottom, from the bottom

Told you we would make it, staying honest

Yeah, from the bottom to the top

This just the beginning, we ain't gonna stop, sheesh
