17 Lyrics

17 baby

He made it past 17

Woke up the next day like it was only a dream

He gon' get better what you mean

Almost lost a brother, man he was only a kid

He made it past 17

When true happiness could only live in his dream

He got better yeah it seems

Not losing you again, let's bust down these chains

I just got here I don't know what's going on

All I see is that fake smile going on & off

I try to understand what's eating you inside

Why you tryna turn down that life

Love grows and I start to feel your pain

I hear you bro, cause I feel the same

Wanting to save you like I saved me

Fight them and they'll let you be

He made it past 17

Woke up the next day like it was only a dream

He gon' get better watchu mean

Almost lost a brother, man he was only a kid

He made it past 17

When true happiness could only live in his dream

He got better yeah it seems

Not losing you again, let's bust down these chains

Substance abuse to make it go away

Gambling with your life, every fucking day

Feeling like drowning lungs full of smoke

Upping your downs with a bit of coke

Now we up, up, up, let's go get that crown

Dressing up, up, up, we don't play around

Blowing up, up, up, yeah you know we boutta bounce

Up, up, up, I would never let you down

He made it past 17

Woke up the next day like it was only a dream

He gon' get better watchu mean

Almost lost a brother, man he was only a kid

He made it past 17

When true happiness could only live in his dream

He got better yeah it seems

Not losing you again, let's bust down these chains
