J Dot. & BOSSMANPERRY100 - All My Life (feat. The Mood)

I gave it all, all ooh all
I've never seen the righteous forsaken, He provides all my life
I've never seen the righteous forsaken, He provides all my life

Seen me overcome so much
Niggas think I'm heroic
I blame it all on God
Even though I barely promote it
Niggas shot me in my stomach
I ain't even know it
43rd and Sto Ave.
2004, October
2009, 200 bands
Aint get the chance to blow it
On my job
Until the system left your boy demoted
Fourth grade, my gym teacher told my mom it's over
"Your son gone end up in prison, I promise you", he quoted
How the fuck is you gone read my life before I wrote it
You ain't Allah
So how the fuck you gone see where I'm going
You nonbelievers can't blame God when you boys fail
You barely call and wonder why you get the voicemail
I done witnessed
Ain't no human being innocent
That's God
I don't believe in coincidence
Nigga killed my uncle
Swear to God I was gone get him
But he died
The day before they transferred me to that same prison
It's crazy, man

I've never seen the righteous forsaken, He provides all my life
I've never seen the righteous forsaken, He provides all my life

All my life I been a black sheep
Now I do a stack a day, serving heron on that back street
We on the block running the money, but we ain't make it to no track meet
It's crazy how we still ballin', but ain't make it as athletes
Every day I gotta make my quota
Having so much motion, I can't get no service on my Motorola
Niggas play game with my money till game over
My nigga got life on the range, I had to cop that Range Rover
I tried to tell you niggas bout my life, but y'all didn't listen
Haters can say a lot of things, can't say I'm broke when they mention me
My homie left me hanging, sitting in that jail like he was lynching me
You betrayed me and you still living, take that as a victory
I'm screening every time niggas call my phone
I bossed up and got a check on my own
I bought a brick yesterday, nigga, I'm grown
We gon' be ballin' till the Lord call us home,
For real, nigga

I've never seen the righteous forsaken, He provides all my life
I've never seen the righteous forsaken, He provides all my life

I can't seem to understand, no
Oh, oh, oh
