IIIIIIIII didn't know' there'd be troubles along the way[00:00:00]
Nobody told me nothin' nobody told me nothin' nothin[00:00:06]
Well' well' ohh' ohhhh' ohhhhhh' oahh-ohhhh[00:00:10]
Well' ay-heyyy' ay-hey' we-ell[00:00:23]
Uh-huh' uh-huh-huh' uh-huh-huh' uh-huh-huh[00:00:31]
I went through' 8 different schools in' 12 different years[00:00:36]
That's 30 different teachers' over ten thousand different peers[00:00:40]
And I done fought in e'ryone' been suspended e'rytime[00:00:43]
Besides a few a felony' done committed e'ry crime[00:00:46]
But never braggin on' just want you to see me what I done done[00:00:49]
I'm never proud of it' so I don't have to go back there again[00:00:53]
And uhh' I used to go like house to house[00:00:56]
Sleepin on couch to couch[00:00:59]
Walk around stickin out my hands' lookin for a handout[00:01:00]
Only thing I handed out was more bills[00:01:03]
Only thing pulled me out was my will[00:01:05]
God told me the sun don't chill[00:01:07]
Determined to make use of one of these skills[00:01:08]
Either that or go beat the block[00:01:10]
Ain't no way you can beat the cops[00:01:11]
Ain't no way I can beat the clock[00:01:13]
Just a matter of time shut down your shop[00:01:15]
Ohh' you stay up day and nights' livin this way of life[00:01:16]
I was +Young and Restless+[00:01:20]
+All My Children+ came and then I had a +Guiding Light[00:01:21]
No more of that sittin mayne sittin and waitin[00:01:23]
And thinkin somebody comin to take me up off them streets[00:01:26]
But now I know [00:01:29]
Nobody told me that the road would be easy' yeah[00:01:30]
I don't believe' I've made it this far[00:01:37]
My whole life' man I've been workin so hard and I know[00:01:40]
Nobody told me that the road would be easy[00:01:44]
I can't believe' I've made it this far[00:01:49]
My whole life' man I've been workin so hard and I know[00:01:53]
I can tell you right now' I'm sayin[00:01:57]
I could sit here and count on one hand[00:01:59]
How many people seen me graduate[00:02:01]
I know a few that did but a bunch that ain't[00:02:02]
Same folks showin up in swarms' waitin for me to go on[00:02:03]
Wantin to see Ali perform' wasn't so po' before[00:02:06]
I became this household name[00:02:10]
I was playin them Little League games[00:02:12]
Nobody curred if I go 0-for-3[00:02:13]
Nobody out hurr rootin for me but my Momma[00:02:14]
Supported me in e'rything' "Why she get e'rything "[00:02:16]
Some people got the nerve to ask[00:02:20]
Y'all can kiss my a**' and that's my Momma[00:02:22]
Got a sister that need my help and I gave peace all with wealth[00:02:24]
Give anything that I have' just to see her in perfect health[00:02:27]
Now we out hurr complainin' I got work to do[00:02:30]
How bad you think you got it' somebody else got it worse than you[00:02:33]
I done had them down and ups and' don't plan on comin back down[00:02:37]
Don't plan on leavin hurr no time soon' but I got too comfortable now[00:02:40]
Wouldn't have no knowledge of wealth' without no knowledge of self[00:02:43]
And I'ma keep walkin this road my mind' body and soul[00:02:47]
Nobody told me that the road would be easy' yeah[00:02:51]
I don't believe' I've made it this far[00:02:57]
My whole life' man I've been workin so hard and I know[00:03:00]
Nobody told me that the road would be easy[00:03:04]
I can't believe' I've made it this far[00:03:09]
My whole life' man I've been workin so hard and I know[00:03:13]
There'd be troubles along the way[00:03:17]
Nobody told me nothin[00:03:22]
That would help me to ease my pain[00:03:26]
I've been walkin this roooooad' for forever and a day[00:03:29]
Now I've been searchin somethin[00:03:35]
For someone to help me find my way[00:03:39]
And now I know[00:03:42]
Nobody told me that the road would be easy' yeah[00:03:44]
