Juice Uchiha – Circumstances (feat. Mama Juice) Lyrics

I been tryna find a way out
Tryna escape the shit I complain about
You would think learned to stand the rain now
But I still ain't found a way to put these chains down
Painted on this smile like I'm a damn clown
My momma packed us up and moved us down South
Cool little place to kick it like a round house
City kid so ain't too much ever come outta my mouth
Trust issues early was always filled with doubt
Maybe she thought that better weather might affect my mood
Better circumstances, better attitude
But I done been through so much pain it left me shattered dude
That shit don't change with this longitude and latitude
My first memory as a child was seeing my mom get beat
Carrying me through the rain with no shoes on her feet
Going to the neighbors house so we can call the police
Talk about having your business in the streets
My dukes a G though so she always kept it discrete
She ain't know all of the shit that a young nigga see
By age 11, Mom's, she was tucking the heat
Type of shit that comes with being single up in the D
Whole time I'm tryna figure out where Dad at
Why I'm angry but I don't know what I'm mad at
I used to lie and tell my friends that you was in the army
I was embarrassed to have to tell them that you harmed me
Now I'm 22 and roles reversed I got a son
Shit is crazy, never thought I'd live to 21
I pray to God that he never hear about what I have done
I want that boy to be everything that I never was
But it's no time to pity yourself put it on a shelf
Just make sure that your baby boy gets a better hand dealt
Spare the rod and spoil the child so I whip out my belt
Then I reflect back on how that shit felt
I can't put these people through the shit that I done seen
Opportunities like this come far and few between
Life is hard just keep it even like a balance beam
And live your own truth everything ain't what it seem
Kaisyn baby daddy love you ma I love you too
Don't beat yourself up you did what you had to do
And honestly I don't know what I would of did if I was you
I swear to God that I'm so proud of you
