Lose Your Soul

Back when I was younger 15 years old

I was tryna figure out where I'm gonna go

I was out tryna find a block of gold

A rainbow, I was chasing a rainbow

Used to ride out every day all alone

Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold

Now I think about the words my mama told

She said you can have it all, but don't lose your soul

Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul

When I was 15 they said I was destined to fail

Preacher man told me I was headed to

Hell, he told me death was the wage of sin

And a young man with so much anger caged within

Riding round reminiscence I'm thinking how I used to be

Judge said I was a danger to my community

But back then I felt like I knew it all

I was selling cocaine when other kids were shooting ball

I'm tellin' you all the truth my life was a movie all

Shit you better tell them red we've been through it all

From close caskets to different court dates

But because I know life ain't a short thing

Back when I was younger 15 years old I

Was trying to figure out where Im gunna go

I was out trying to find a block of gold

A rainbow

I was chasing a rainbow

Use to ride out everyday all alone

Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold

Now I think about the words my mama told

She said you can have it all but

Don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul

Don't lose your soul

Mama said there will be days like this...

I was a young man just trying to make it rich

Cocaine was a rich mans high and I was broke

So I found a couple rich guys that snorted coke

I remember rollin' up brown weed in a Philly

Smoking it and hearing scenes probably

That shit was silly

And now it's hard to believe that I was that guy at all

And now I keep on slippin' and I'm trying not to fall

I'm fucking different woman trying to not get involved

Cause the saying goes the higher we fly the harder we fall

And through it all God never let me go I

Said a prayer every day and I kept my soul

Back when I was 15 years old I was

Trying to figure out where I'm gonna go

I was out tryna find a block of gold

A rainbow

I was chasing a rainbow

Used to ride out everyday all alone trying to figure out why the

Worlds so cold, now I think about my mama told me

She said you can have it all but sent lose your soul

Don't lose your soul

Don't lose your soul

I'm feeling like the phoenix how I'm raisin from the

Ashes, now every mixed tape is a white trash Classic

To tell you all the truth it's been a long road

We came along way but we still got so far to go

Do this for my brother in the federal pen

And I promise you your not going back ever again

Back then we were kids trying not to make the news

Now we got this music thing and I think its breaking through but hold

Up back then we had it so rough used to

Do a couple shows but no body showed up

And now everybody knows us there like here comes trouble

Damn, I can't wait til I see my brother struggle

Come on

Back when I was 15 years old I was trying to figure out

Where I'm gonna go, I was out trying find a block of gold

A rainbow I was chasin' a rain bow

Used to ride out everyday all alone

Trying to figure out why the worlds so cold now I think about the

Words my mama told she said you can have it

All, but don't lose your soul, don't lose your soul

Don't lose your soul
