Cameron London - Bet On Me

I never knew how
So what I gotta prove to you
I learned the game
Just so I can tell the truth
Now I struggle
To make a decent rhyme half the time
I just
Want to get it off the mind
So I practice, learn the tactics of the golden age
Paid respect to legends but I'm rapping from a stolen page
I'm the sage, had to let my beast out of the cage
Got a dollar and a dream, like the rapper in the first J's
Praise God, oh should I do that
Maybe sell my soul for a feature and a two-pack
Can't slack, I am the jack of all trades
Since I let it slip I haven't been getting paid
Heart way bigger than it need to be
Too many names and most of em bleeding me
Struggled for the knowledge but I give it for free
I think it's time that I bet on me
If it wasn't for my mama and my daddy
I'd be living alone
Got a house but it isn't a home
If it wasn't for the love of my sisters
They be cheering me on
I would probably be gone
If it wasn't for my mama and my daddy
I'd be living alone
Got a house but it isn't a home
If it wasn't for the love of my sisters
They be cheering me on
I would probably be gone
15 years, 15 years
The way I'm moving you would think I got 15 fears
It's way too clear my path unchanged
But the mindset couldn't remain
I fought accusations as I chased the accolades
The ones who talking down be the ones I need to save
Lost my better judgment but I tried all the same
Visions that I'm failing all because I'm chasing fame
Don't really plague the mind no more
Walking by faith when I'm unsure
Still be the same if I wind up poor
My priorities switching, I found my door
To peace, love and all I ever asked for
I got the future, what I'm sweating on the past for
This a passion, I can't break free
So it's time that I bet on me
If it wasn't for my mama and my daddy
I'd be living alone
Got a house but it isn't a home
If it wasn't for the love of my sisters
They be cheering me on
I would probably be gone
If it wasn't for my mama and my daddy
I'd be living alone
Got a house but it isn't a home
If it wasn't for the love of my sisters
They be cheering me on
I would probably be gone
If it wasn't for my mama and my daddy
I'd be living alone
Got a house but it isn't a home
If it wasn't for the love of my sisters
They be cheering me on
I would probably be gone
If it wasn't for my mama and my daddy
I'd be living alone
Got a house but it isn't a home
If it wasn't for the love of my sisters
They be cheering me on
I would probably be gone
