lyrics

[FenaxiZ - Intro]
Huh, life, full circle, yo
From the cradle to the casket
Heh, yeah, follow me, huh

[FenaxiZ - Verse One]
Follow me, Audiobiography of the Strongest Link
My odyssey, it's odd to see how the smallest thing
Can guide your way, finally earned my college ring
Though I can say I learned more than what these scholars think
0-3, Dwayne died so I promised him
To focus my energies toward something positive
And I ain't saying he left for my benefit
But at the end of it, I've developed with the negative
The bigger picture or understanding of how dots connect
The fundamental law of cause and effect
Lots to regret, still in all, I've come of age
From the days of hunger pains when I was feeling small
In hindsight, was it plain luck or divine light
That got me through hardship, tomorrow's not charted
Answers to my questions only known by departed partners
So I've gotta finish what they've started

[FenaxiZ - Chorus x 2]
For the seeds, I hope you make it in these streets
Where all we know is hatred, stay motivated please
Rags, riches, and everything in-between
Kings and queens like the color purple, full circle

[FenaxiZ - Verse Two]
Had dreams to be a journalist, hopping the globe
Or an actor on the big screen, the star of the show
Somewhere, down the line, somehow on cold benches
Tryna impress known killers with blunts and Olde English
Funny thing is, years later, I've found my way
While them O.Gs I idolized vanished without a trace
Faint memories of rounds I've made
Because now it's strange, I see what matters most
Long as I'm breathing and my fam is close
I can laugh even if I don't understand the jokes
That this life can tell through all sorts of situations
I went places, met faces, and accepted changes
Blessed stages both large and small, numbers deep
Yonge & Dundas Street in the summer's heat
Just to sell my tapes, never minding jealous snakes
'Cause second you slow down, the grind accelerates

[FenaxiZ - Chorus x 2]
For the seeds, I hope you make it in these streets
Where all we know is hatred, stay motivated please
Rags, riches, and everything in-between
Kings and queens like the color purple, full circle

[FenaxiZ - Verse Three]
So many stories, but only a few with a good ending
You can take a thug out the hood, still the hood's in him
Wild card with a foul heart, free or behind bars
Crimes large, die-hard, but his mind's sharp
Inside scarred, first chance, demanding respect
Big man steps, meanwhile he's planning the next
Since dropping out in tenth grade, mentality was to get paid
Brain keeping track of every cent made
Taught self-hate from textbooks and corrupt cops
Chasing the buck, sooner or later, the buck stops
In front of the court, bail be coming up short
Friends don't visit, baby moms ain't want him no more
Another place, maybe different time, he woulda crossed
That finish line instead of dwelling in a prison crying
So my young gangstas, never settle for less
In this life of raw footage without special effects

[FenaxiZ - Chorus x 2]
For the seeds, I hope you make it in these streets
Where all we know is hatred, stay motivated please
Rags, riches, and everything in-between
Kings and queens like the color purple, full circle

[FenaxiZ - Outro]
Yeah, full circle, y'all
And that's the life we lead
Ha, gots to keep on pushing, no matter what y'all
Huh
