Hakim - Magnificent

Everything fell apart on me but I made it work
You thought it was over for me I made you learn
I knew I’d change the game when I got my turn
Forever on that other side when the bridges burn
Everything fell apart on me but I made it work
You thought it was over for me I made you learn
I knew I’d change the game when I got my turn
Forever on that other side when the bridges burn

Cold hearted if you hate me then it’s your fault
Man of the house
Everybody want to see my roof gone
I could never let that happen
I play it smart
Me & Don often laugh about how we about to kill everybody off
Premeditated verses
About time I drop the hearse off
Sweet potato gnocchi
Minnesota wild rice in the sky loft
I made myself my boss
I could never be employee
I gotta keep the lights on
You ain’t never seen it done before me
Young but I’m still the OG
Earned that from everything I been through
I don’t even speak to my parents
These times ain’t so simple
Where do I go for guidance
Tell me who do I vent to
My dad ended up all alone
Ain’t nobody to pass the business
Told my mom don’t hit my phone
I can’t fix these issues
Court transcripts said it all
Threw it all away over that dude
Y’all paint it like I’m crazy one
Y’all know I’m the golden child
Crazy how things ended up
This blood can’t be reconciled
Tears dry on their own now
Meditate to some Winehouse
I drift when the sun down
Y’all know y’all can’t come around
Y’all know I hold grudges
Till I’m 6 feet buried in the underground
Y’all know about the business I opened
Y’all she be proud
I gave y’all first grandkids
Y’all know I had life figured out
I was the one that took a different route
Like cutting waves
Went against the grain
In my household
That was not allowed
Never been the one to throw the towel
I stand on my 2 feet
Always been the one to go against the crowd
Shoot my shot when I’m getting fouled
Dipped out seen it going south
Showed love in the wrong times
Got hate cause I made it out
Y’all showed me family don’t mean nothing
It’s a word now
Y’all use that family s**t for excuse but it don’t amount

Everything fell apart on me but I made it work
You thought it was over for me I made you learn
I knew I’d change the game when I got my turn
Forever on that other side when the bridges burn
Everything fell apart on me but I made it work
You thought it was over for me I made you learn
I knew I’d change the game when I got my turn
Forever on that other side

Trips down S 14th got you by my side
It don’t matter where I’m going
You just want to come and ride
I know if I do a crime
You’ll try and do my time
You put me first
Cause you rather see me shine
I’m going to put a ring on it
You forever mine
I know you scared
I see it in yours eyes
The miscarriage really set me back
I ain’t going to lie
I ain’t even speak much on it
Put it in the grind
Spark it up
I let it all float away
I get scared too
But I gotta find a way
3rd one on the way so now we gotta find a name
I want Lusciano but you love to hate
But you love to hate
It’s crazy how it all falls apart just to come together
All that s**t that that ain’t work out
It was for better
The rain washed dead weight out
Gotta thank the weather
It was rainy days
Rainy days
No umbrella
It’s a different kind of pain watching everybody eat when you know you better
Now I’m getting to the cheese
I need every crumb
Give me all the feta
Mozzarella
All them tears that we drop together
I can’t see us not together
This the shit that’s for forever
Shag carpet
With the rose petals
Back in 16
You were mine on Valentines
I was fresh up out my parents crib
F Street was the best of times
I ain’t even have a dining table
We was on the floor with the strips and fries
You was still in highschool
I was in school doing hair designs
After school I would rush over to the Hilton
For the night shift
Room service
On my dead time
I would fade the cooks
If they need a trim
Ask Manziel
Ask AK
They can tell you how I got it in
Black trash bag on the floor
Just the catch the hair falling off they head
If Donna found out about all that
My ass getting fired quick
Looking back on the grind I put in
That shit’s inspiring
I know when Eddie checking up on me
He can’t do nothing but admire it
Got the news when you died
I was back in Thomasville with the hooping shit
Weeks before that
I was going through a tough spot and put down the pen
So fast forward when I get the news that you laid cold in your dorm bed
Something clicked
Picked up the pen
And my life never been the same since
I guess everything got a reason
Cause when you died
I learned to live
No man deserves this life more than I do
So obsessed
I create it all with my eyes closed
Being black
Got to do it all on a tight rope
Same rope that they rather see around my throat
Vision clear
I ain’t getting fooled
See through the smoke
New levels
Bring new devils
And they want your soul
Stay pure
Stay level headed
Hold on to hope
Navigate through the matrix
Gotta crack the code
Magnificent
