[VERSE]
Yeah
I told my family we gon' be alright
My parents showed me what it really means to sacrifice
Overnights just to pay for the bills
The work ethic that’s ingrained in me still
It’s never maybe I will, keep on working till they know who I am
Misunderstood 'cause ordinary wasn’t part of the plans
We only get one life
And shit I’m tryna be great
Underground underdawg
Seemed impossible fates become real
They never understand how far beliefs
Can motivate ones goals for inachievable dreams
All the backlash and shots aimed at your self esteem
Are directed by the people who never fully believed in themselves
I sit alone questioning what is life about
Sometimes I think what if I really took the simple route
What if the comments and speeches pushed me away
From persevering all these obstacles constantly in my way
Saying I should be ashamed that I’m done with going to class
Or my gpa determines the mental strength that I have
Take my stamina cut in half
Multiplied with what I lack
Your a fraction of the heart that I pour out inside my tracks
Destiny, me and her will meet real soon
I’ve did most of the things, that I said last June
I told y’all that I wasn't buying the lease
I’m not here for a rental or overnight and I don’t ever retreat
For any kid with a passion, go and follow your dreams
Let them crusify and judge let them envy in scream
Cause one day inside the crowd you’ll look over and see
Most your haters are front row singing the words that you speak
I know
It’s hard to deal with life’s bullshit
I heard some want the smoke tell em that I got a full clip
Profit off mental health but don’t expect a response
Especially its took away from me some people I love
I would never wish you pain, I would never wish you death
But who the fuck are you to joke about the pain inside our chest?
For all the nights I truly thought that I'd be better off dead
I’m standing here with you Today to show you that you are blessed
There’s no love without pain
And there’s no life without death
So make the most while your living
And cherish each damn breath
Your lucky you get to walk
So cherish each damn step
We're all Put here for a reason
Ek fam until the death
We’re here
2020
Bout to take this shit to new heights
Leave haters scratching away like they don't caught headlice
I’m to nice with it
Stop bringing up the past
I Fell in love with game and I giving her back
Got a project coming soon
Might be different in a good way
I’ma always on the move
Pay attention to what the words say
Good luck to the game
I really wish you the best
Work hard, stay humble and go get your respect
Yeah
