Grey Hairs Lyrics by M-Dot

the STORY

2018

Started from the bottom we ain't barely had shit
Ramen noodles boiling in the same pot we used to piss
What you know bout spending most of your day outside
Cuz the rent got paid be we'en have enough for lights
Wearing clothes that my uncle let me have back then
My little brother got em now perfect fit for him
Had enough hand me downs so my hand ain't out for shit
Ion need no pity or assistance watch the way I flip
This Misfortune
When you hear my name you'll know of my Importance
A product of a nigga who did not believe in courtship
High school student pregnant but she said fuck the abortion
Had to pop a bitch up in the eye her mouth was busy workin
She a fighter, had the baby gave him most of what's inside her
Went back into school and graduated even brighter
Poetic as they come man she could've been a writer
Remember listening to her sing and wanted to be just like her
Fast forward now she got 3 kids 2 jobs
And 1 nigga thats in and out our lives every other month
Every time she cry a tiny piece of me would die
Bout 12 years old I'm the man by her side
I'm the man of the house fuck a boyfriend ain't no spouse
Ion want em in this house cuz they ain't worried bout the fam they ain't worried bout the kids had to grow into a man to recognize what they did
Momma plucking out grey hairs she intense in all her prayer
At that same fucking age realized life wasn't fair
Back then I only lived ion know about the bills
Thought I could save a sinking ship but that was only just the tip
Of the iceberg shit got real
Section 8 start to trip then my grades they start to slip
Momma tried to keep me focused I was giving her the lip
Looking back I'm thinking damn
How stupid that was of me
All the shit she had to juggle still made time for me
All the obstacles she facing but she still keep her patience
Grown ass little kids need to learn to stay in places
Thought college was me escaping
But all the shit she warned me not to do I did it and it broke me
Would've told my GPA she would've drove up there to choke me
When called it quits and went back home she waiting there to hold me
Put the pressure on me tell me get a job or go back she was tryna mold me
One of the best decisions in my life result from all the scolding
I'm fuck up number 1, most mistaken son, but I had to learn the ropes so I could teach it to shawn
And he can teach it to vante and keep on passing it on
Hope they better than me so they can help out my son
Momma forgive me for all the wrong that I've done
You raised all men you made us all strong
Life knocks you down but you still hold on
Can't express my love for you in just 1 song
