Tech N9ne, Krizz Kaliko - B.I.B. lyrics

How much of the trauma did mama get? Ayy
Way up to the highest level that drama gets
Ayy through the pain of my mother
Heartache was on a display
I don't want a sick day to my mama's dismay
Ayy thinking of all of it
I never wanted a part of it
Remember I wanted to let go, when smoking
I managed to get low it coulda been worse
Like when I was talking to homies on
A cellular phone up on death row
When I never had to serve a stretch so
I can still say "But, I'm blessed, though"
But why did I have to hear mama getting beat
In third grade
So I couldn't really give him missing teeth?
But, I knew from grandma that what
You sow you're gonna freakin' reap
So he robbed a bank and got about 30
Years in the pen' for the mission, peace
Blessed to get away, but stressed to this day
When checks hit a nay, no money
Depressed and it's grey
But the family didn't stutter to pull her
And the kid inside their homes
Sometimes it was butter and sugar sandwiches
Graduated to healthy niggas
Tryna protect this investment
Moving like stealthy figures
All that poverty and pain it really
Helped me give a damn
It dealt me this killer jam, now
Wealthy I'm living grand, still
I felt these shivers
And the cold nights living
Through all the stresses
I'm feeling like I had a lifelong baby
Bib to protect me from messes
Around my neck so I'm safe
As far as threats go
From the last row to the best flow
I can now say, "But, I'm blessed, though"

All of these things that get me down
I know it's gotta be an
Upside down, frown somewhere, yeah
If I can't pick my face up off the ground
And I don't know what's next
I holler, "But, I'm blessed", woah
And all of these things that get me down
I know it's gotta be an
Upside down, frown somewhere, yeah
If I can't pick my face up off the ground
And I don't know what's next
I holler, "But, I'm blessed", yeah

Under pressure, feel like God
No discussion when I pull that card
Until I see different i know what I know
Under pressure, feel like God
No discussion when I pull that card
Until I see different
I know what I know (What I know)
