Slums

To accept charges (Yeah)
Press consent to this recorded call (Gari, chop that shit up)
Press one to ****, thank you for using Securus (DeepHartt beats)
You may start the conversation now
Yo (Yung Shad, you killed this track)
What it is, man? You good?
Yeah, dog, motherfucking vibing, man
I'm in New York right now tryna lay this bitch down
(Hey, Track, you ran off with this one)

I'm straight up out the slums
Coming straight up out the slums
A lot of people don't make it where I'm from
Love the people where it is, where I'm from
I wanted deep pockets, instead, I got a deep heart
I play in hands, I was thrilled, I never switch cars
I get emotional every time I think about my parents
Never cared 'bout coming first 'cause I was built to last
They stay the strongest when you at your lowest
Never made excuses, won't ever show it
Giving all I got, I'm going all in
I'm taking on a loss and turning in a win
Straight up out the slums
I'm straight up out the slums
Coming straight up out the slums
A lot of people don't make it where I'm from
Straight up out the slums
A long way where we come
Straight up out the slums
We're all waiting from the slums

I'll wait, now I got them calling
It be the ones you really love you gotta question
Never give up on yourself 'cause it's a time thing
And stay down 'til you shine, it's gon' fall in
Be the one you count on
Don't let 'em count you out
And throw away your fears, don't even speak it out your mouth
And when they throwing stones, pick it up and build a house
And never keep your head down, belief don't come with doubt
Before this shine ten, now the ten you go through rain
And tell me what's joy if you never experienced pain
Championship dreams come and work during the season
I can't forget goal when you make it and start sleeping
And Melly, you a hero I just wanna let you know
To see you hold it down in a cell and you the goat
Until you get home, I keep a phone for me to pick up
And being your big brother one of the things I'm proud of (I love you)

I'm straight up out the slums
Coming straight up out the slums
Coming straight up out the slums
A lot of people don't make it where I'm from
I wanted deep pockets, instead, I got a deep heart
I play in hands, I was thrilled, I never switch cars
I get emotional every time I think about my parents
Never cared 'bout coming first 'cause I was built to last
They stay the strongest when you at your lowest
Never made excuses, won't ever show it
Giving all I got, I'm going all in
I'm taking on a loss and turning in a win
Straight up out the slums
I'm straight up out the slums
Coming straight up out the slums

Straight up out the slums
We're all waiting from the slums
