[Intro]
Damn to this day nigga still pray on my down fall
You can't deny good music or a real nigga
For real for real

[Hook]
I used to break in the crib
Now I got a safe in the crib
Chiraq crime rate build
So it ain't safe at the crib
I just want money forever
Told 'em that's how I'ma live
Shootings and murders I seen
I ain't never say I did it
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
I done seen a lot of shit
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
I done did a lot of shit

[Verse 1]
I done seen how you shootin' niggas
Now I see right through people
Three years of my life to them people
Judge labeled me a menace
I'm Mike Brown to these people
I gotta ride around with my heater
Police killing my people
Overseas cause I'm legal
I ain't takin' no chances
Masks on for them cameras
On my own, no advances
Broken homes for advances
As a kid growin' up
I used to be poured up
I ain't never froze up
All I know is drill drill
Put him on a poster
Reward money for the killer
They ain't never found the killer
Don't nobody know nothin'
I rob niggas for they tool
Brought guns up in school
Started a war, gotta move
Free Nine, boy let 'em loose (Ls)

[Hook]
I used to break in the crib
Now I got a safe in the crib
Chiraq crime rate build
So it ain't safe at the crib
I just want money forever
Told 'em that's how I'ma live
Shootings and murders I seen
I ain't never say I did it
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
I done seen a lot of shit
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
I done did a lot of shit

[Verse 2]
Put a nigga on the news
I'm in traffic with the tool
Three cases, I'ma fool
Gave my life to a Jew
It's in the hand of a Jew
Shooters took him on a cruise
Streets see how I roll
I'm still tryna get Zoo
Still chasing them millions
Daddy gave me the wisdom
Twenty-three years up in prison
I swear I seen his vision
Seen my son, I start tearin'
I took the game, wasn't given
Ditched school, hit the hood
The streets love me, I'm good
Shed tears if I could
Shed blood if I could
Share money if I could
Share guns if I could
Sell coke if I could
Sell dope if I could
I'd rob if I could
I'm gettin' money cause I could (Ls)

[Hook]
I used to break in the crib
Now I got a safe in the crib
Chiraq crime rate build
So it ain't safe at the crib
I just want money forever
Told 'em that's how I'ma live
Shootings and murders I seen
I ain't never say I did it
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
I done seen a lot of shit
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
As a kid growin' up
I done did a lot of shit

Durk Derrick Banks (born October 19, 1992), better known as Lil Durk, is a rapper, singer, and songwriter from Chicago, Illinois. Durk is best known for his involvement in the drill wave that took the music world by storm in the 2010s. He is the founder of his own record label, Only the Family (OTF).

Durk’s early career was, like many drill artists, plagued with legal issues and accusations of violence. These issues eventually led to his shows being canceled.

In 2012, his career took off with the release of “L’s Anthem” and its French Montana-featuring remix. In 2013, he continued his hot streak with “Dis Ain’t What U Want,” a conscious reflection on his perception in the media and throughout his city. In 2015, he released his debut studio album Remember My Name and the viral sensation, “My Beyoncé” with DeJ Loaf.
