Lyrics

[Chorus]
From nothin' to everything that I asked for
From food stamps to stamps on the passport
Brown bag full of cash and the dash
Hit the gas, get the laws off my ass
Remember all them nights we didn't have no lights
Tryna be a star, I had to earn my stripes
Took a wrong turn, had to make it right
Don't cry 'cause I made it out alive, ayy (Shee)
Don't cry, wipe your eye, don't cry, I made it out alive
I'ma live, never die, don't cry, I made it out alive (Maybach Music)
[Verse 1]
War stories, my mama made it through the Holocaust
Candle burnin', the people came, they cut the power off
Full of hatred, then come the questions, is the family Satan?
Everybody gotta show they hands, trust me, be patient
Negativity grow like weeds in the flowerbed
Seen Gs turn into fiends, get a thousand years
Amphetamines, the meth told on a **** steps
Everybody turnin' state, be careful what you rep
Gang signs, then boom, step on a landmine
Disintegrated, was there for your baby man time
I'm tryna show you **** how this goes
Half of these **** hoes, puttin' hits on all my foes
Fuckin' bitches on Okeechobee 'cause I'm ridin' full
Makazole ain't comin' home 'cause you **** told
I'm still a ruby boy, movin' unruly, boy
Sellin' records, but my life a fuckin' movie, boy
[Chorus]
From nothin' to everything that I asked for
From food stamps to stamps on the passport
Brown bag full of cash and the dash
Hit the gas, get the laws off my ass
Remember all them nights we didn't have no lights
Tryna be a star, I had to earn my stripes
Took a wrong turn, had to make it right
Don't cry 'cause I made it out alive, ayy (Shee)
Don't cry, wipe your eye, don't cry, I made it out alive
I'ma live, never die, don't cry, I made it out alive
[Verse 2]
Your co-defendant testified and was so passionate
Shedded a tear when I found out you got a lighter sentence, woah
Keep it real, I'm reppin' Black Bo (Maybach Music)
Cuban links, Dominicans, still touchin' cash flow
Where my money? I fuck around and have you wet on Monday
Met in London, need a visa, reason I'm steppin' on it
Weapons drawn, you better chill, ****, this double R
Rolls-Royce, rollin' riders, baby, we come so far
West coast, I bless you **** with another flow
Dr. Dre prescription, time for another episode
Two-seaters, peaches with me, she in some new sneakers
Gucci this, Gucci that, in the Hills gettin' weeded
Fentanyl by the jar and I think I really need it, damn
I think I really need it
I'm feelin' like a prince still in the elevator
Never leavin' footprints, baby, 'cause I'm levitatin'
[Chorus]
From nothin' to everything that I asked for
From food stamps to stamps on the passport
Brown bag full of cash and the dash
Hit the gas, get the laws off my ass
Remember all them nights we didn't have no lights
Tryna be a star, I had to earn my stripes
Took a wrong turn, had to make it right
Don't cry 'cause I made it out alive, ayy (Shee)
Don't cry, wipe your eye, don't cry, I made it out alive
I'ma live, never die, don't cry, I made it out alive
