Lyrics
lyrics:
verse 1:
as a kid he didnt clearly see
children's dreams took over his minds reality
stayed in his own world but he wouldn't dare leave
to him nothin seemed impossible to achieve
everyday his head would stay up n remain up tall
in tha backstreet by his lonely he would play football
always gettin into fights but he would never fall
had to prove to sum he was strong hearted after all
but some motherfuckers had to come n start shit
he decided he'd had enough of it n jus flipped
not givin a fuck he came out,took 3 on 1
then stood n laughed watchin all them motherfuckaz run
hook 1:
this is the story of a barrow kid n now you know it
...lil barrow kid
verse 2:
tho he's grown he aint become wise
he went to school n got busted tryna buy knives
now this cat know's he aint got no nine lives
yet he still puts his life at risk smokin fives
got fucked over by a bitch,didnt see straight
man he should of known to listen to his real mates
now hes thankin god that this time it aint too late
to finally make up for all his past dumb mistakes
but then he topped it off just bein a troubled teen
stupid fuck got arrested at the age of fourteen
i guess he doesn't seem to learn from shit he does
but thats ok because he's jus like the rest of us
hook2:
this is the story of a barrow teen n now you know it
...a troubled youth
verse 3:
he's about to live the dreams he had along time ago
kept on believin n wouldn't let them dreams go
he's had his fair share of all them battle rap meals
gained respect,now he's lookin for his record deal
he spitz on a track n all his wounds seem to heal
n every rapper's touched by tha way that he feels
tho he's got the skills,he still remains underrated
n that fact alone forces him to try n make it
people hear him n they amazed coz they knew him
but his parents wonder what the fuck hes doin
he gotta prove to his family he can do it
ah fuck it...at least his fuckin friends knew it
hook 3:
this is the story of a rapper n now you know it
...the one n only
