From Down To The Top



Born in the 305, raised to be one of a kind.

Grew up to be better than brother who had met his demise. Never knew how nor why he was never he by my side, until I grew up and was told.

Then I knew that my life was determined. That I will never stop till I was on top.

So then I began to rap and trap, never to be in a mishap..

Once I began to be noticed, I began to be different.

Once I even told my parents that I wish my music was never noticed. But once I knew it, there was no other way around, but to go through it.

So I run to the finish line and seen the spotlights and now I'm playing in the fields of those that came before. Like Tupac, Biggie, and may other more.

Now I'm here it sucks because nobody is here who can also do it. Not Drake, Nicki, Wayne, Doja or even Megan.

But to be at the top doesn't mean everyone will notice, they will only ever know when you're done with your moment.

~ Fin

A boy born and raised in the 305 and lives to learn about his brother and what really happened and soon take it to heart and began to rap and trap and he made it to the top, but to be on the top doesn’t mean your truly happy, and no one will know what you had to go though until your moment has passed.
