At Least I Got One

(album: Milestones - 2020)

My sneakers were always whatever I wanted within reason
My reason was based on who was jumping out the BM
Seeing what we saw from the door and we still geeking
Crowd him around the store he gets to dumping out per diem
How I see it, we were inspired by who's beside us
Heavy is the cuts on the head, true as a line up
Be it princess or Andis, or 50 dollar stand-ins
The weight of all 3 like I'm triple beaming the canvas
Shoulder to shoulder, know what it costs the same way
That I know my composure but still stood there, we good here
Easily mistook here, for one another often
But I don't ever mind it like I'm cutting you a portion
Things dude hopping out the BM showed me
Added that to what my pops used to feed me to hold me
Made sense of it, played parallel, same differences
Parents ain't married but I still could wave a ringer in
So being all we saw, pay no attention
Seen enough already to get what all was a given
Corner stores and ambiance the world we live in
My hands raised in advanced placement, what a collision
Blowing bud on the roof and aiming an empty clip at a cloud
In awe of a 4 pound without a mission
Loving the aura of being part of what we envisioned
Blind without seeing it, my pops on my beeper and
Heineken in my jeans like we were Casper and Telly
Know I'll be right where you need yo I'll back when you're ready
Mad at me cause my house is a home, out where I rose
Feel the need to be proud that I won't be out here alone, right?
Prayers up for who ain't blessed like I
Praising a drought, my pops ain't never left me dry
No apologies for bringing this ringer out with me
You get your brother? That's fine, shit you know where I'ma lean, right?

At least I got one mu'fucker
Same reason my Wrangler don't got the top up mu'fucker
Mega salutes to the ones who ain't as blessed as me
I leave you the same food that he left for me
At least I got one mu'fucker
Same reason my Wrangler don't got the top up mu'fucker
Never hide from that so I ain't have to step aside
And I'll never hide the fact that my dad ain't never hide
Real shit
