In the remix version of the song, MAVI comes through with a verse detailing what seems to be what his destiny might entail as he reflects on his younger ways while focusing on themes of rebirth, life and death.
[Chorus: TOBi & MAVI]
Through it all, I can't complain, it feels so good
I can't complain, it feels so good
I don't know what I would do without you
I don't know what I'd do without you
Through it all (Ah), I can't complain, it feels so good
Oh, baby, it feels so good
I don't know what I would do
I don't know what I'd do without you (What I would do)
Yeah (What I would do)
Yeah, uh
[Verse 1: MAVI]
The past written in ink, I drink an eraser
And heave up my chaser, sneak in the cheapest shrink I can pay for
Seats at my fate
The deepest secrets that beleaguer me
Leaving in wave forms
For what I'm keeping 'em framed for
Frequent bleeding my veins scored
Allegiance to my demons that feed me the same story
Bowstrings that'll sang chorus
Only time will tell if my aim will keep me the same core
My seeds are as safe hoarded
My theme just remain mournin'
But I never lost a love that I really deserved
This shit cost me a lot of blood, but it's just what I prefer
God tied my noose to the truth, guess I was blessed with a curse
Bridging a new route to my youth a better one than I burned
On fire, I'll probably burst before I step in a church
The glider I'm tethered to currently why I'm stepping so urgently
Tried everything to deter it, guess my breath just inertia
Lying in wreckage why I fell on my worth and then I was birthed again
[Chorus: TOBi & MAVI]
Through it all (Yeah), I can't complain, it feels so good
I can't complain, it feels so good
I don't know what I would do without you
I don't know what I'd do without you
Through it all (Ah), I can't complain, it feels so good
Oh, baby, it feels so good
I don't know what I would do
I don't know what I'd do without you (What I would do)
What I would do
[Verse 2: TOBi]
This second verse is for the women I cherish and love
Take my time 'cause you inherit distrust
First date I remember, I picked you up in my car
Gave you a hug, I could tell you were nervous as fuck
So was I, but I held it and stuck to it because
That's how, a young boy learned to get through the mud
We hopped out of my whip, a knife fell out your purse
You said, "Ain't too many places a girl is safe on this Earth"
I said, "I understood," but I didn't
Goddamn, the privilege of the skin that I live in
Goddamn, I walked at night, don't think twice 'bout the feelin' at all
Think we could make this world a better place for all of our children?
Not just another blue check with an opinion
I vow to make the killin' in the land of livin'
What if twenty years later our kids grow in this system?
And not have to repeat history
[Chorus: TOBi]
Through it all, I can't complain, it feels so good
I can't complain, it feels so good
I don't know what I would do without you
I don't know what I'd do without you (Ah)
Oh, baby, it feels so good
I don't know what I'd do without you
