Verse 1:
When I told them I wanted to rap
They told me to forget it and get another career path
Because there was no way I could make a hit track
But I started this and I haven't looked back
Now I'm dreaming out loud, my head's in the clouds
Getting love from everyone in these crowds
Performing For The Win, the first track I felt proud
Now I'm giving my family everything I vowed to give back
Give my family everything I vowed to give back
Pay back every dollar my parents spent on me
Give my brothers and sisters lives they deserve
And repair every last nerve that I damaged
But Imma do this for me
Because I told myself I'd live out my dream
Sit on top of the world, just me and my team
They day I can walk up to a thousand people with the mic and just scream

One is to make sure my family's straight (Straight)
Two is to make the music I know will be great (Great)
Three is for the worldwide shows
Four is to show the whole world just where I'll go

Verse 2:
They told me I wouldn't make it, they told me I wouldn't break it
They told me this game would tear me apart and strip me naked
And anyone who gave me props was just faking it
Told me don't put my heart out there because they'll just take it
But look at me now
I'm five mixtapes in and people from all around are showing me love for my sound
My fan base is still small but they all loyal
Getting love from the kids I grew up with in Shelburne and New Lowell
Now I'm off in college and I'm doing great things
Learning about music so me and my label can sign kings
Making music in a real booth in a real studio
Dreaming of the day I'll be here making music with my heroes
Shoutout to Mac Miller and MGK for my inspiration
I can't wait for that day I hear my song on a radio station
Staring at the steering wheel knowing that sensation
Knowing I did this because I had the dedication, what up?

Bridge: X2
Now I'm here, above it all
Standing tall, not afraid to fall
Because I know that when I'm gone I won't lose it all
Because I know that when I'm gone they'll still be singing this song

Verse 3:
I'm a man of my word so one day Imma buy my Mom a new house
My Dad his dream car and Jerry a beautiful Harley
So that they can see what I've accomplished and be proud of me
Because when I'm up at the top they're the ones who supported me
Even if I go from the top to the bottom
I'll know I'll have released enough material for a greatest hits album
So when this life is over and I look back on it all
I'll be proud enough to say I was high enough to fall

Hook: X6
