chris rivers - i let my pops down lyrics

freedom or jail, clips inserted, a baby’s bein’ born
same time my man is murdered; the beginning and end
as far as rap go, it’s only natural, i explain
my plateau, and also what defines my name

f-ck
long live the legends
hope you’re never their succession
pops can nap jesus
trade it for god’s vengeance
now what you’re about to hear is a tale of glory and sin
n-body my mentor, now let the story begin

i’ve always been writing rhymes, it’s for an expression defined
since about the age of nine, i’ve been poetically inclined
i never wanted to shine but my sk!lls, i still refine
walking that fine line of intervention defined
’cause i sound like my father and this i always acknowledged
and i always came at you, none of this copy and garbage
i always pay homage to the point i wanna vomit
but they say he’s a shooting star and i’m simply a crashing comet
well dad, i put my heart and soul to this sh-t and lost control
and i still kept pushing forward and trying to be my own
this whole zone so cold and this tash harder than stone
they calling me his son but they flow not just for my zone
cause woah, you died way too early for me to make you proud
at merely the age of six, my potential came to shrouds
wanting me to be a better man so, just hate me now
i can’t even amount to you and that sh-t is so blatant wow
i let my pops down

mastering my flow, i guess i need time to grow
i let my pops down
in heaven, you’re looking down and probably with a frown, f-ck it
long live your fathers, hope they’ll never be a martyr
pops can nap jesus
raised me to be a monster
now, what you’re about to hear is a tale of glory and sin
death my only mentor, let the story begin

your darker side still had a compromise
it taught to survive
more specifically, instilled in me the thoughts to provide
for my family in case a tragedy would arise
said when i’m gone, you’ll be the man and then the next year you died
surprise my sides
buckled from the weight of the world
boulders on my shoulders, taking care of your girls
i’m only six, f-ck am i supposed to do this sh-t
that’s what i said, then i dropped the whole world and quit
you little pr-ck, looking back, i should have chased that cheddar
cause we grew up in the shelter going helter-skelter
chasing p-ssy meanwhile in h-ll, life looks better
i was trying to be a kid, but that’s no excuse so i get up
fed up, i tried to make some change, in life and in pocket range
but all the same, we already gained the pain life contains
i’m f-cking lame. too late
my efforts are in vain
you raised me to be a man and i took that sh-t like a game
i let my pops down

taught me to do good and we still trapped in the hood
i let my pops down
raised me to be a man and i will never understand, f-ck it
long live your idols, hope they never your role models
destined a life of a failure
sadness and broken bottles
what you just heard a tale of glory or sin
still looking for the glory but i’ll find it within

check your credentials
my sh-t is existential
essential to raise your mentals and written with golden pencils
chiselled and stored in crime
i demand and predict the head right
prophecized this art of mine, mcs because he’s not nice
i’m too real
you blue pill n-gg-s refused this new deal
go further down the rabbit hole and prove that rivers do k!ll
through weak minds and beast times
is refined and these lines from these rhymes is refined and always in design of the rap game
now rewind
