Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh

All them days that I was starvin', made me hungry for more (yeah)

And all them nights without no lights in that apartment

Made me heartless and cold, yeah

Had to take cold showers, I was freezin'

Wasn't nothin' but ice cubes in the freezer

Scrapin' up change to get some food wasn't easy

Every other day, it was ramen noodles or Little Caesar's

When you ain't eatin', how the f**k a n**a greedy?

Hell yeah, I want it all 'cause I ain't have it when I needed it

And I just wanna ball, but I ain't make the team this season

Who the f**k can I call when my dogs and them need me? (yeah, yeah)

Starin' at that Rollie thinking 'bout the times

When I gave my last one, when I ain't have nothin'

Who gon' take care of mine?

The problems you had, I had 'em too but you'll swear I'm lyin'

It f**d me up, I dropped a tear lookin' in my children's eyes (yeah)

I make this shit look good

I blew up tried to put on the whole hood

But no matter how much I did, I ain't do enough

It hurt to say it some niggas changed and we ain't good now (yeah)

I been workin' on, tryna stay up out my feelings

When you emotional that's when shit get all wicked

Soon as I got on, niggas acted all different

Niggas start trippin', I don't even know why

All them days that I was starvin', made me hungry for more (yeah)

And all them nights without no lights in that apartment

Made me heartless and cold (yeah)

Had to take cold showers, I was freezin'

Wasn't nothin' but ice cubes in the freezer

Scrapin' up change to get some food wasn't easy

Every other day, it was ramen noodles or Little Caesar's

Lookin' out the window, tryna check the vibes (vibes)

Seein' if it's safe to even come outside (outside)

A couple niggas spinned the block, the opps is still alive

They'll probably put it on repeat, I think I'll stay inside (bah-bah, bah-bah)

Momma workin' late, nobody home with me (home with me)

Every light on in the house because I couldn't sleep

Stomach growlin' like a b**h, we ain't have shit to eat

Ain't no cable, that's the fable, I watched DVDs

Ain't no one said, "keep your chin up," I got jumped and kept my chin up

Had a white boy as a friend the only way I'm eatin' dinner

Not by choice but I got thinner, lost some contacts with my niggas

Had to scrap a couple homies, now they no longer my niggas (yeah)

Now I done had to face some hard times before

And I done been arrested 'cause I'm tired and broke

I'm searchin' for the answers 'cause at times, I don't know

'Cause I come from this (this)

All them days that I was starvin', made me hungry for more (for more, yeah)

And all them nights without no lights in that apartment

Made me heartless and cold (cold, yeah)

Had to take cold showers, I was freezin' (freezin')

Wasn't nothin' but ice cubes in the freezer (freezer)

Scrapin' up change to get some food wasn't easy

Every other day it was ramen noodles or little caesars
