unkl Sam - Picasso

I'll be chillin' on the west side, watch the sunrise in the east It's so beautiful to me, I got the world at my feet
And I gotta thank God for this gift that I was given I can make you feel how I'm feelin' I can turn my words into a vision
Let me paint a picture for you Tell a whole story of a boy who became a man
I ain't never had a father, just a lil' boy and his mama Workin' everyday for a dollar, tryna get it

Livin' in a country that don't want a n***a in it Surrounded by some sinners, got a demon and an angel on my shoulder
Tryna tell me what to do Somewhere along the way they done knocked a screw loose
Now I'm thrown off, I done took loss after loss, Got up off my ass and I started takin' off
I been rappin', tryna make it happen I appreciate my mama, she my mama and my daddy

Girl, I know it's been a struggle tryna raise me on your own You turned a prince into a king and now it's time to take my throne
I'll be chillin' on the west side, watch the sunrise in the east It's so beautiful to me, I got the world at my feet
But I gotta thank God for this gift that I was given Real n***a, I'm authentic to the core
You can never clone what I got It took blood, sweat, and tears to get this far And I'm still bleedin

But I ain't trippin' cause I know it's for a reason I'm a soldier, the world is more corrupted And these demons gettin' stronger
I gotta put my family on my shoulders, it ain't over I'm the chosen one that's gon' get us out the rubble
You ain't with me, then it's fuck ya, uh-huh I been chillin' on the west side, tryna get high just to pass time, yeah
Got the world in the palm of my hand, I put it on the line for the fam There's no reward without a risk, I'm puttin' down every single chip

I'ma bet it all, roll the dice, I'm finna set it off Watch a young n***a win it all
I'll be chillin' on the west side, watch the sunrise in the east It's so beautiful to me, I got the world at my feet
But I gotta thank God for this gift that I was given I can make you feel how I'm feelin' I can turn my pain into a vision
Let me paint a picture for you Tell a whole story of a boy who became a man, became a man

Oh, yeah, became a man Oh
