Deja Vu (feat. TYuS)

Youngin' came up strong

With a will to live

Daddy never came home

Mama in the pen

So his relative got him 'fore the devil did

The streets ain't safe just to be playing in

The story never changes

Just who telling it

And it all cost the same when nothings change

Let's talk about like a room full of elephants

I can see it your smile, you can't hide the pain

I can see you been scared, don't hide your face

I can feel it in your eyes, a lot is on your mind

'Cause when I look in the mirror

I see the same thang, it's like déjà vu

I see it all the time

Made it out of the dirt

I rose up

Got off my ass and growed up

Made it off of the corner

Before the Hurst pulled up

I had a dream and I seen my kids looking up at me

What you going to do fight or give up?

At a cross road never to be a lost soul

Cold nights, no heater and no lights

Gas stove and match to get the plates right

The man say I'm living wrong

But God knows my heart

And it is right

If you don't understand the feeling

Or see what it's like

Then you could never understand or relate to the plight

And I can never stand next to a man who won't fight

For what we dying to live and our piece of the pie

It's like déjà vu

I see it all the time

But I won't run and hide

It's like déjà vu

I fight to survive

I've been living out my dreams

Seeing places I never seen

Got to give it my everything

For my mama to see better things

Keep fighting, rising, shining

Where could I go wrong?

If you done felt pain and been through the struggle

Then you can relate to this song

Reaching for my goals

I'm close I know

You ain't got to tell me so

'Cause I already know

I was summoned by God to be the greatest

They say my birth is a curse I still made it

I stood out in the field when it was raining

10 toes down in it with no complaining

Never fail to help your brother if he need ya

Never lie to the people that believe ya

Believe in you and trust you and never leave ya

Principles over leisure

And anything that misleads you

I got a problem I ain't mean to mislead you

I was just getting high as eagle

But my eagle eye view is lethal

I've been focusing on the prize

I ain't mean to not see you

But the way I'm seeing things

You're see through

And I'm attracted to greatness

It's déjà vu

I can fake it

No!
