Verse 1 Foxy: From the cradle till now still Fox
just a little more mature/ Seen it with my bare
eyes did it all before/ Been through hell on earth
playin' out my role I was given since birth
receptin' it well/ Go hard at them critics they
expect me to fail/ Work hard for my fans they
expect me to sell/ They suspect I'm livin' well
but they don't know the pain I feel/ 5 minutes
away from gettin' killed it's ill/ My moms always
hug me when I'm leavin'/ I wake up cryin' 'cause
death bugs me when I'm sleepin'/ Jam Master died
it's like I ain't done breathin'/ Big and Pac gone
and look we're still beefin'/ It's uneven we at
odds in these days when niggas died over cars and
they chains/ I thank God that I'm saved I hold it
down in this game now from the cradle 2 the grave
Chorus Althea: From the cradle 2 the grave I
wish I knew my life would end up bein' this way
(x2) Verse 2 Foxy: From the cradle till now I
been through it ya'll/ You don't know half the
things I been through it dawg/ Pain and
sufferation I been through it all/ My heart still
cold I been through the storm/ Confused all these
years/ Shit we grew all these years I remember me
and you on the stairs/ Talkin' 'bout what we gon'
do when we big/ Money came into play and best
friends went they way/ Shit I wish it never had to
go that way/ The price of fame could cost a whole

ask Him to carry me through/ All the stress and
drama in this business/ I bare witness I Fox will
keep goin' strong until my heart stops/ Will keep

Althea) Bridge Althea: As a little girl/ I
wish I knew that I/ Would be goin' through the
drama that's in my life/ All the suffering/
Everywhere I've been/ How I get myself in all this
bullshit I'm in Verse 3 Foxy: From now until the
grave I look back in my life/ I smile and say WOW
in amazement/ All these roadblocks wonderin' how
did I make it?/ Wonder how I 'came famous/ I'm
impressed with me, it's like rumors been obsessed
with me/ But the truth never told it was left with
me/ And what's left for me is to extend my hand/
If they don't reach then I let them be/ I gotta
live my life right but I wouldn't change how I
live my life like/ If I could live my live twice/
Ya'll don't understand what Inga's life's like/ A
black girl's stress I turn my back to the world
and now I'm back to the world a black girl's
blessed/ Yeah my fans held me through it/ I was
destined to blaze from the cradle to the grave/
Thank God my fam helped me through it, come on
(chorus Althea)
