(Verse 1)
Highschool in class think of droppin out
But that be somethin I could never really talk about
Everybody always said it ain't an option how
I could walk up in the office sign the doc and bounce
Cuz 9th grade when the drama would rise up out
The fuckin ground like a zombie I'd walk around
And people eye me down
Its like they talk about me without givin a fuck bout what they talk about
(Chorus)
Said I been feelin like I got nobody by my side
While I be all up on my grind through early mornin late a night
And I ain't tryna justify shit
Can't provide with empty pockets
Pray to god that all the nonsense in this world will fuckin stop
(Verse 2)
I grew up around an abundance of
Preppy motha fuckas never been one of em
So because I wasn't conformin
Didn't play sports or
Listen to the stuff they bump
Or rock the shit they rock
Or talk the way they talk
I was an easy target so they always pickin on me
I had to brush it off like a dusty mop
I let it slide givin time Ida got fed up
Cuz I be walkin in the hallway hearin this shit all day
There's a limit that come with the shit that yall say
People callin me a faggot for rappin and tellin me to kill myself like it don't even matter
One day I said fuck it
Threw a middle finger up
At one the bullies on the bus when I was walkin way from it
At first I was pissed that I been learnin to live with these people tellin me that I ain't worthy of shit
(Chorus 2x)
Said I been feelin like I got nobody by my side
While I be all up on my grind through early mornin late a night
And I ain't tryna justify shit
Can't provide with empty pockets
Pray to god that all the nonsense in this world will fuckin stop
(Verse 3)
Then a year later same deal but I started to smoke
Chillin with my homies turned into us tryna get stoned
Fridays were the days we would always wanna buy eights so we get high then buy food to keep us full
I was smokin for a minute I dont know how often
But my mom knew I was so it was causin problems
I would always call her out like no your wrong its not a big fuckin deal I can do what I want
And I regret that shit
Soon enough a bad experience put me in depression wishin it would just end
Used to wonder was it dust but it probably wasn't
Coulda been that it was strong shit that I couldn't fuck with
So I quit
Bout 2 years later started smokin again
And the same shit happened
Landed me in therapy the first time around thankfully was already in a better program at the school the people there for me pushed for that
So I would go to class in the afternoon until Im done and graduate
All I have to say
That Ida made it too far just to throw it all away and thats the thing
Yeah we all feel lost sometimes but Im back up on the path I made
Don't give a fuck what you have to say
Makin music and improving on my craft can be challenging
But Im trying hard thats the key
(Chorus 2x)
Said I been feelin like I got nobody by my side
While I be all up on my grind through early mornin late a night
And I ain't tryna justify shit
Can't provide with empty pockets
Pray to god that all the nonsense in this world will fuckin stop
