Cause it was all meant to happen

It was all meant to happen

No wonder why you kept walking my way

Cause it was all meant to happen

It was all meant to happen

No wonder why you kept walking

My mom was 18 waiting for her prom date

Which was my father yes

This night's gonna be beyond great

Two years prior they both created Aaron Yates

So the bond straight with two fine mates

So mom waits

And waits in the upstairs window watching

For my pops and it was shocking

That he never ever came knocking

Just left her

In her prom dress and that's the eve

Where all the stress hit aggressively

She had her first epileptic seizure

And kept having them doctor

Help the sick lady

Medicine with the quickness

Just maybe it'll stop

Member this in 80 I was nine

Asleep and I heard something collapse

Hopped up with nothing but tighty whitie

Saw my mom just fell and slapped the floor

She shaking I'm scared

I ran out the house in my underwear

Help my mama is all

That's coming out my mouth

A neighbor came to help so mama wouldn't die

As a little kid

Watching the ambulance take her away

I'm thinking why

Cause it was all meant to happen

It was all meant to happen

No wonder why you kept walking my way

Cause it was all meant to happen

It was all meant to happen

No wonder why you kept walking

92 I was 21

Selling rocks for my auntie was plenty fun

And yes she loaded the house with many guns

She got me a TEC-9 for my birthday

No more tripping from anyone

Is what I'm thinking

Boone's Farm's what I'm drinking

Singing Jodeci loaded we exploded

These chicks I'm binking

Daily nightly the ladies like me

I'm baby Ikie

Maybe slightly I'm crazy might be

Really shady sheisty not like this though

I'm sleeping again

This dude breaks in with a pistol

I heard his bullet whistle

So I had to roll of on this flo

Heard a struggle then my auntie scream

I'm feeling for my piece

Then just my luck my birthday gift that

I got wasn't in my reach

The gunman busted in my room

Looking for something

Found me hiding

Pointed the gun right at my head

My heart was pumping

Then he turned and ran away

Then with a blink of an eye

He was gone I found my auntie shaking

Hiding in the closet

I’m thinking why

Cause it was all meant to happen

It was all meant to happen

No wonder why you kept walking my way

Cause it was all meant to happen

It was all meant to happen

No wonder why you kept walking

Dear Darkness

You've been with me for so long

I never understood

Till now in this slow song

Been in some shaky situations

But life goes on

But still a lot of things

You showed this kid was so wrong

But what's so right

This pain and strife that I go write

People go buy it

They think that my flow's tight

Got a cold mic

They got me a million sold twice

Not a low-life anymore

It’s always sold-out show nights

After K O D you scared me

So I ran from you

Then accepted you on Seepage

Then saw the fans come through

Just when I thought

I took everything I can stand from you

I kept writing and then

We watched the Strangeland come true

So now I see these stories in my life

I was meant to share

My darkness within my light

People say it helps them to see me fly

From the bottom

That's motivation for them all

Now I see exactly why

Cause it was all meant to happen

It was all meant to happen

No wonder why you kept walking my way

Cause it was all meant to happen

It was all meant to happen
