Jimmy Mann - Calling for me...

Been heard the whispers
Just embracing those voices
Doubled down on my decision
Seen my fate through my choices
See I share the same story
With the ones who are voiceless
And the ones that's down to roll
When they don't know what a royce is
The only difference
Had my pops
To understand what a voice is
Right before mama got her wings
She told me that I should voice this
So here I am
Sharing my stories
These are facts and perspectives
Inspired by the the times
When my mental health was neglected
Mastered the art of navigation
Through dark times
Was subjected
See serendipity
Looking back
How I was affected
Parents let me run the streets
But at home was affection
When I was lost on my path
Looked to mom for direction
When I caught my first jab
Looked to dad for protection
Showed me how to throw these hands
So the fam
I protect them
You need correction
Silly fool
I know you trying
But you can't just scratch the surface
When issues are underlying
I'm trying
To walk in my light
I can hear it calling on me
Just starting up in this game
These niggas stalling on me
No I'm never tripping
But pretty women
Are falling for me
Knew this was my life
Before I had it
Cause it was calling for me
Calling for me
Calling for me
Knew this was my life
Cause it was calling for me
Calling for me
Calling for me
Knew this was my life
Cause it was calling for me
Calling for me
Calling for me
Knew this was my life
Cause it was calling for me
Calling for me
Calling for me
Knew this was my life
Cause it was calling for me
So what's the problem shorty
Let's address your root concerns
We branching through the pipes
They contained us in
Who's concerned
That life they tried to sell you
Is short on payments
Your dues adjourned
Build one on ya own
That's beautiful
Too adorned
I too was torn
Internal conflict had me beat
Trips to the caribbean
Clear my mind
I corned that beef
Where I'm from
Lives are taken
And we just mourn our streets
I rather raise my kid in peace
Teach her to brew some tea
But still keep her wit about her
Trust that she will
Bruce like lee
Her daddy from that city
That's know to be
Big truss in we
These niggas talking shit
But can't even properly brush their teeth
Marinate my prime
You niggas are just brushing beef
You would think it's Wednesday
The way I'm about to brush these streets
The silver lining in my rhymes
I'm trying to let these bustas see
Dwelling in denial
It's cool
They still can't fuck with me
J I double m y
Yea that's who the fuck I be
