Ruggo - over dedicated

I come from sunny days and summer breezes
Outside chilling and see my brother every other weekend
No role models, it's only internet heroes
'Cause all the older folks around me were some real life thugs
I see Granny when I dream but I need real life hugs
Had my family's back for years, now it's real life tough
Ain't felt no motivation lately since the 26th of April
But as soon as I found her; it felt like real life love. ONE

I'm from where Chester's Hot Fries, is still a double dollar
I'm from where roosters wake you up before the sun can bother
I'm from where kids play in the streets despite the fucking heat
I'm from where everybody's problem is their fucking father
I'm from the East Side of the 8
Hussle where you skate
Luck don't get you far
Love don't get you paid
Lust will get you baked and left up on that corner stinking
Me, I've had my fair share of hearing that lil' stainless
But still I'm here
Had my own lil' evolution every coming year
I'm from where tias selling fruta for their main career
I had it rugged back on Library St.
Time was tough, but still I muscled 'cause the timing was peak. LOVE

My Granny used to so I knew it all
But knew that I ain't know enough
Now I learn and give it to the people out here showing up
Want to see lil' Rug chase his dreams steady going up
Swear my soul has been here already, real familiar
My family been outliving the deadly
We was homeless getting rest up in that Gold Star Inn
So for that I swear I got to be the go far kid
That's why I'm passionate 'bout all my fucking go hard shit. TRUE

They want to know 'bout Valley Shit? this what we fucking do
Real resilience
I've been sealing lips since I was 2
Been smart as shit before I even had my fifth cake
Now I ain't even twenty and these people own my mixtape
Heard my pops went and relapsed in the fifth grade
And ever since, I knew relying on myself was needed
I couldn't even be a kid, had to live strategic
Happiness had vanished 'fore I ever got the chance to meet it
So this goes out to all the fuckboys that doubted and slept girls that laughed at me
Like I ain't really been showered in
Tough moments that made me
I got more people that play me than they hate me

Grateful to live daily
Over Dedicated
