True Story
 
In these times.....I stay addicted to rhyme
Lyrics stay on my mind... threaten to hate on my grind
See me, I was a soldier... I slung that coca...
Pistol with no holster... my vida loca...
Plus I was pumpin obscene amounts of that green...
Gave it to my nigga's dirt cheap they stayed on my team...
The white was a different story.. all work and no glory...
Multiplied my money for me... but I let it control me...
Fourteen years old.... got the game from my O.G....
Too bad he was my dad.... rather use me then hold me....
Not saying I need to be held.... I need to be felt...
I'm doing what I can with the cards the good Lord dealt...
I never been a gangsta... Rolled solo for delf...
Kept my product in my safe bolted down to my shelf....
Stayed dipped in fits... High School I was the Shit...
Moving "P's" in zips.... Flipped the money so quick...
Momma told me... You'll be a man some day...
You gotta get out these streets... I thought I found my way..
Older nigga's respected me... they wanted to own me...
Tried they best profit from the game that they showed me....
With eyes wide... I made my moves quicker than time flies.....
At the same time... developed a thirst for limelight...
Started out as the kid with the clothes.. smooth with the hoes..
Turn to the kid with the dro.... sick with the flow...
Signed to my first label... such a tender age... seventeen
Ready to slay the world... cause the flow was so clean..
Made my first drops... to this day I still get props...
But lack of funds and loyal ones... exactly what made my click drop..
I went from sugar to shit... shows and trips...
Dro and Chicks... back to the street grinding for chips..
But this time the streets wouldn't welcome me... It hurt
Wasted so much time making my money machine work...
Then suddenly... My world got flipped... it was beserk
My girl had a secret for me when she came home from work..
I was a father.. soon to give birth to a baby daughter...
I ran from reality... now it finally caught up...

This just the beginning.. you want more than let me know...
I'll take you through the years to now from when I was 18 years old.

what a story, not bad but you can cut down on the dots. a faster pace would have been better and it was a good way to tell the story.

^^^^^^^I can dig it.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I strayed away from trying to be too deep or complex with the flow. I know it is seen as a testament to true ability but my main purpose was to give cats a lil insight on the life I have led. Whether cats believe it or not. Thank you for the feedback.

Music is all about expression.
i try to kee it simple because even though it is written
and everyone has the time to figure it out, it shouldn't be that way.
Music shoud be easily translated to the soul.
Big words, complexity, don't make an emcee.
I'ts possible for me, but I find it distasteful.
It's like trying to speak with culture and you have none.
I write rhymes the way I speak.
Not the way I think I should spit so everyone thinks it's tight.
And I don't rap to try to say the hardes shit to say.
it's all about expression. If you could picture the story as you read it, then I accomplished my goal.
*A little insight on my thinking*
