[Hook]
I took one step forward and two steps back
I jumped so many hurdles to get where I'm at
I had one foot out and I had one foot in
And I ain't gonna look back if I get one more chance
And it's one thing that a nigga must understand
That tomorrow's not promised, this is your last dance
And I'ma leave my past with this one line
Try to live your life one day at a time (it's Gucci)

[Verse 1]
Now our bills anything
Then why I'm still hurting then?
My cousin said, "it's not a house Gucci
So why the fuck it got a curtain then?"
I applied for a job once
Really went with the workin'
But soon as I got the work in
It seemed niggas started hatin'
I wasn't good ridin' skateboards
I was better ridin' Daytons (yeah)
I can't lie I need to pray for it
But it took a lot of patience

[Hook]

Gucci Mane

Radric Davis, popularly known as Gucci Mane, is an Atlanta rapper who has released over one hundred full-length projects. Gucci’s impressive discography is comprised of 15 studio albums, seven EPs, a handful of collaborative albums, and over six-dozen mixtapes.

Gucci is recognized by many as one of the founders of the trap sub-genre and is cited by many modern rappers as one of their greatest influences. Under his self-owned label, 1017 BrickSquad, Guwop has signed artists like Young Thug, Waka Flocka Flame, and Chief Keef. Here’s a more complete infographic of his impact on the genre.

Although Mr. Davis has achieved many milestones in his career, his 20-years as a Trap God has been plagued with legal issues and drug addiction, and the star has faced a slew of charges including assaults, drug charges, and even murder. Fortunately, after serving over two years in an Indiana federal prison, Gucci seems to have turned things around. When he was released in 2016, Gucci was quick to show the world his weight loss and sobriety, which shocked many into thinking he was a clone.
