goin legal

(Verse 1)

Yo, I was just a kid, sellin' coke on the block,

Back in the days when life was tickin' like a clock,

Pockets full of dreams, hands dirty with the dust,

Trust? Nah, man, all I knew was the rush.

Cold nights, hot summers, the game was my escape,

Flippin' bricks, dodgin' cops, tryin' to get that cake,

Mom's cryin', dad's gone, couldn't see the pain,

Blinded by the hustle, drownin' in the rain.

Homies droppin' like flies, saw 'em disappear,

Fear was my shadow, always whisperin' in my ear,

But I kept pushin', heart full of ambition,

Vision blurry, but the mission was addiction.

(Hook)

From sellin' coke to goin' legal, man, I made it out,

Climbed the ladder, changed the game, now I’m cashin' out,

No more runnin' from the law, no more lookin' back,

Evolved from the streets, now I'm on a different track.

(Verse 2)

Grew up fast, had to learn the hard way,

Puttin' food on the table, every single day,

Hustle turned legit, found a better path,

Left the streets behind, no more aftermath.

Started my own biz, built it from the ground,

No more shady deals, no more lookin' around,

Took the skills I learned, flipped 'em to success,

Now I’m sittin' at the top, no more stress.

Turned my life around, made my momma proud,

Legal money now, no more runnin' with the crowd,

Paper stackin' up, livin' life clean,

From a hustler to a boss, changed the whole scene.

(Hook)

From sellin' coke to goin' legal, man, I made it out,

Climbed the ladder, changed the game, now I’m cashin' out,

No more runnin' from the law, no more lookin' back,

Evolved from the streets, now I'm on a different track.

(Bridge)

Lookin' back now, I see the lessons learned,

The bridges burned, the tables turned,

Had to fight, had to claw, had to earn my place,

Now I'm standin' tall, face to face with grace.

No more shadows, no more dark nights,

Livin' in the light, no more street fights,

Took the pain, took the struggle, made it all mine,

From the coke game to the boardroom, now I shine.

(Hook)

From sellin' coke to goin' legal, man, I made it out,

Climbed the ladder, changed the game, now I’m cashin' out,

No more runnin' from the law, no more lookin' back,

Evolved from the streets, now I'm on a different track.

(Outro)

So here I stand, a man reborn,

From the ashes of my past, no longer torn,

Found my way, found my peace, found my call,

From sellin' coke to goin' legal, I rose above it all.
