Sold drugs

Lyrics

(Chorus)
I sold drugs, and you don’t comprehend,
It wasn’t just cash—it was life on the edge.
Stack or starve, I had to defend,
Flip the pack, now the green my only friend.
Every night could’ve been my end,
I sold drugs, and you don’t understand.

Verse 1
This wasn’t the dream, this wasn’t the plan,
But hunger don’t wait, so I moved what I can.
Turned a blade in my pocket to the weight in my hand,
Made bands from the plate, had to expand.

Sixteen—my first O,
Started slow, just green, no snow.
Watched my cash flow grow like a weed in the street,
Flipped three, now it’s money at my feet.

The game’s deeper—chrome what I wield,
Every move heavy like I’m climbing uphill.
Pray to God, but I’m gripping steel,
‘Cause survival’s a gamble, and death is real.

(Chorus)
I sold drugs, and you don’t comprehend,
It wasn’t just cash—it was life on the edge.
Hunger made me, the struggle my pen,
Wrote my story in smoke and sins.
Every night could’ve been my end,
I sold drugs, and you don’t understand.

Verse 2
Libby Lane, nothing to our name,
Not a dollar in my pocket, just hunger and pain.
Sixteen, my mind went insane—
Not ashamed I was broke, but tired of the strain.

No job, too young, so I rocked the disguise,
School kid by day, but the night had a price.
Crook in the flatts, eyes sharp like a knife,
Had to stack dollars just to buy back life.

Light clicked, though I hated the choice,
But the streets don’t care if you like your own voice.
Told my brother, “I’m tired of this pain.”
He said, “We gotta eat.” So I went, no refrain.

(Chorus)
I sold drugs, and you don’t comprehend,
Every move was risk, every dollar was spent.
Had to flip quick, every gram a defense,
When you’re starving, the rules start to bend.
Every night could’ve been my end,
I sold drugs, and you don’t understand.

Verse 3
Fifteen, ran away from the crib,
Two days gone, nowhere to live.
Called my mom—her voice cut deep,
A smile in my tears, but the pain won’t sleep.

She said, “I had a stroke, now I walk with a cane.”
The weight hit my chest like a runaway train.
I bought the bus ticket, got there the same day,
But my fear was a monster I couldn’t escape.

Couldn’t stay broke, the thought made me choke.
Pockets too light, dreams turning to smoke.
Hot-headed and lost, head spinning with heat,
Had to turn my pain into cash on the street.

(Chorus)
I sold drugs, and you don’t comprehend,
It wasn’t for the flash or the flex of pretend.
It was for my fam, just trying to win,
Bread for the table, escape from the end.
Every night could’ve been my end,
I sold drugs, and you don’t understand.

Outro
This wasn’t the life I chose,
But when you’re drowning, you swim or you fold.
Flipped zones, copped phones, built my throne,
Still prayed for the day I could leave it alone.

But don’t judge what you’ll never know,
‘Cause struggle makes you go places you’d never go.
I sold drugs, not for glam or the trends,
But to break bread for my fam in the end.

(Chorus)
I sold drugs, and you don’t comprehend,
It wasn
