elijah khan - wasn't given كلمات الأغنية

[intro]
you know i like beats like this one
sh-t gets me thinking
you know ain’t nothing was given to us man, we went and got everything we have

[verse]
i believe that i can dream, rollie on my sleeve
never thought i could say no lines like that
i didn’t ever think i’d have no rolex watch up on my arm
talking just walking round the ends, just wearing designer garms (ha ha)
things changed when i stacked up pennies til’ they became pounds (uh)
broke laws in the process (uh)
only way to progress
i guess that’s why i get nervous at the sound of sirens when in my ends
repercussions of my sins
i start thinking how they come for me to take my freedom
wanna’ k!ll me like they’re liam neeson
i’m taking deep breath, i’m going too deep
pardon my transgressions (uh)
i’ve learnt hard lessons (uh)
lost friends i wish i didn’t, women i’d love to see
but couldn’t keep up with the person that they thought i’d be
i guess that’s an excuse for saying that i wouldn’t change (i wouldn’t change)
or fate being someone else that i wasn’t
just so i could have a place at their table
never brought down, only enabled (only enabled)
other n-ggas in my hood to see the greater good
buy a home and find a wife is what my pastor preached
go to school, get a degree is what my parents teached
i never had a choice, i lived life with my heart on my sleeve
pour out henny for my brothers that are dead or deceased
they lost their life, i mean they never stood a chance
mother working round the clock, father nowhere to be found
so they’re on the streets, working
thinking if they can help with bills, maybe mummy she can rest
if they can pay the mortgage maybe mummy won’t be stressed
but the problem with that thinking is it puts them on the block
where they get bullets in their chest
i’m talking hood beef
where children younger than me
k!ll each other for a street that they don’t own
these postcode wars led to knocks at the door
from the police ready to make an arrest for that knife under your vest
we didn’t pick this life, i guess we just adapted to it (adapted to it)
and we didn’t want to break the rules
sometimes we had to do it (we had to)
and i can’t speak on my endeavours i’m a [?] myself (uh)
but i can guarantee i worthy of some judgement myself
these are confessions of a hood n-gga (my confessions)
i mean not too hood, we grew up in the hood around thugs, but try remain good
minor cases i would ride out to these other places
just to back a n-gga who later would make a statement (statements)
breaking down our friendships (d-mn)
i was never scared of life, i just had to embrace it
and realised your choices i would make right here today
would have consequences in the future
i was only born to win, i don’t relate to losers
pardon my arrogance, i don’t mean to be rude (nah)
but i can’t have you eat around me, you ain’t bringing food
you’re only here tryna’ consume
can’t call yourself no man if all you do is bring your spoon n-gga
can’t call yourself a man if you just brought your spoon n-gga

[outro]
i mean that’s the worst kind of n-gga man, n-ggas just hanging around waiting for a handout
don’t bring sh-t to the table, always tryna’ eat
there ain’t no handouts on this side
only go-getters
if you want that sh-t, you gotta go take it
ain’t nothing given in life man
ain’t nothing given
