…Up early in the morning…with Rich Tycoon. Send a shout out to my grand mamma…I love you…
(Verse 1)
People try to say that I’m a man with no hood
But I still found the trouble, knowing Richie, he would
You know I come from the ghetto, I hustled out in the burbs
Yo, I’m a hellafied hustler of this, that, and the third
I been trying to come up, I’ve been trying to emerge
Just trying to figure my route, I took a couple of turns
Just like I ended up lost-the metaphor for the cost
Some people think that it’s cool, I think the game a rip-off
Still I’m determined, yeah I’m searching for the knowledge-I promised
My grandmamma I’d be more than ‘bout a couple of dollars
She said, try to be a leader Richie, don’t be a follower
So what I’m ‘posed to do but honor her
Grandmamma, you see me down here dealing with this damn drama
You probably laughing at me know that you taught me how to
You even told me I’m a have to watch my own potna’s
You wasn’t wrong big mama to be completely honest
Hook-
Granny told me don’t you worry ‘cause even on your darkest night
You always got a reason to smile whether you’re broke or you’re money is right
Even if you lose your love, at least you still got the rest of your life
The bad days gon' pass you by
Just take time out to laugh and cry….cause it’s a wonderful life…
(Verse 2)
She wish he was cuter-he wish she was faithful
I wish I was rich and had plenty of take home
No matter how hard I try, it’s so hard to fly
To go outside is risky…will I live or die
Should I jump the fence, or should I tote the line
Should I tell the truth and when is it cool to lie
So many questions, but some of the blessings
You left me behind, they came in form of the lessons
A permanent message, I’m glad that I kept it
And all of your wisdom is proven and tested
So I put it on record…Granny this your song
And like you said grand mama, if somebody disrespect it
Lord bless his heart, please bless her heart
And while you’re at it, please Lord don’t let me start
I’m a independent artist, you can keep your charts
Just ‘cause you own the awards, yeah you beat my art…who cares though…
Hook-
Granny told me don’t you worry ‘cause even on your darkest night
You always got a reason to smile whether you’re broke or you’re money is right
Even if you lose your love, at least you still got the rest of your life
The bad days gon' pass you by
Just take time out to laugh and cry….cause it’s a wonderful life…
(Verse 3)
It can’t that bad, some people might back stab
They’re fish out of water, give ‘em a moment and that’s that
They won’t last too long, putting faith into bad rap
They can’t be too on if they’re hating, and pass that
While people are tapping out, not me, I’m just backing out the garage
About to turn around en route to what’s real, not a mirage
I’m finna burn it down, I send a shoutout to my judges that sat me down
Wasn’t for you I wouldn’t be here rapping now
It’s a player’s last chance, I’ll be damned if I blow it
But it ain’t my last game, I’m a hell of a poet
I’m a hell of a brother, I’m a hell of a husband
I’m so tired of suffering…
Hook-
Granny told me don’t you worry ‘cause even on your darkest night
You always got a reason to smile whether you’re broke or you’re money is right
Even if you lose your love, you still got the rest of your life
The bad days gon' pass you by
Just take time out to laugh and cry….cause it’s a wonderful life…
It’s a wonderful day…it’s a wonderful night…it’s a wonderful night
It’s a wonderful day…it’s a wonderful night…it’s a wonderful night
It’s a wonderful day…it’s a wonderful night…it’s a wonderful night
It’s a wonderful day…it’s a wonderful night…it’s a wonderful night
-Fade out-
