Scars
• Written by MTFD
Listen, I've got scars but no money or cars
But I've got bars that'll take you to mars
My body isn't perfect neither am i
But i can't lie but when i see what people write these days
I just sigh because the shit ain't real
Man what's the deal?
Half these people haven't had it like the rest of us
They haven't had to go though the drought and struggle
Never just had a notebook with a pencil
Always had the best shit with a couple mill but still
Rap today isn't any thing meaningful
Nigga ain't nobody wanna whip or nae nae
Just sit down and listen to me spit my story
Oh lordy lordy where do i begin?
Back in August of 08 my parents split up
Damn that messed shit up, couldn't sleep just stayed up
Mama got addicted to pills and lost her job
Moving house to house, never spoke was as quiet as a mouse
Had to watch over my sister she was so young she didn't understand
That our father wasn't a real man and i was the only one there for her
Come 5th grade i was stressed depressed, so much you couldn't miss it
Got into marijuana started smoking whenever i could, especially when we moved to the hood
Thought i was doing good but life was like or nah
My grades started to drop down to rock bottom
But i didn't care about em, just wanted to sleep all day
Let's fast forward to the summer of 2011 when my brother was born
Mom was still addicted to pills, she just slept on the couch
I was the one in charge on my siblings
School i started missing, life before i started reminiscing
I got angry at the world, so my heart turned from gold to cold
I went to beast mode and became an asshole to everybody
Started not giving a fuck unless it came to my brother or sister
Matthew my brother became my motherfucking best friend
He made me happy even when i was a little snappy
My attitude was really crappy, my ways were whacky
My mom looked tacky when she got her addict ass up
We moved in with auntie Shannon because we couldn't afford the house
It was a crowded house, 6 kids plus her and my uncle and granny
Damn she got on my nerves thought she ran everything inb the house
Now? I'm 14
Doing okay, mama is off pills, own house grades are okay
Dad disowned me a few months ago, still haven't talked to him till this day
Haven't seen Matthew in over 2 years, I'm still sad and depressed about that
Can't get him out of my head it's all because of his dada
But when i see him he's a dead nigga
Got a girl named Camryn she's always there for me
11-3-14 that's the date I'll never forget she's the one I'll never forfit
Because she's a trophy and I'm all for it
I'm living life in the fast lane i just floor it
Pedal to the metal bitch here i am get on my level
