M.I.O

[Verse]
I got people in the hood still tryna live a good life
But they couldn't do that because shit is not right
But somehow I made it and I'm tryna fund my friends out
But the opps puttin' guns against they heads out
Man, I don't think they'll get out
Like woah, woah, yeah, I've been on the road, road
Run away from my demons, man, I'm finna fuckin' go, go
Yeah, and I kept it on the low, low
But what you know, know about sleeping on the floor with towels for blankets?
And yeah, I made it out, but I still remember hangin' with the wrong crowd
And did you hear your walls bangin' 'cause your neighbours fuckin' arguing?
And if you didn't work for money because you wasn't starvin' then
Don't talk to me about your struggles, I'm a wizard, you'rе a muggle
From the start I got befuddlеd, now I'm up, yeah, with no troubles
And it took a long way to get to here
I remember rapping on my mum's phone for like a year
I remember being with Makenzie in school
Back when everyone used me for something like a tool
Back when I thought listening to Eminem was cool
Back when I never had a trouble in the (Woo)
Yeah, back when I didn't have a trouble in this world
Back when I used to wear a sweatshirt, no Earl
Back in primary, who wanted to die? Many
Who wanted to cry? Many, except for me
Except for Rhys, come check the peace
At your neck, yeah, G, so don't act edgy
I swear Dynamic Axels was what helped me with my struggles
Yung C$ and Prince and me, I was the one gettin' into trouble
But somehow I fucked things up, the problems 'tween us doubled
And I tell everyone I want some help but I sure do keep it subtle
I remember listening to FIVE, thinking that it was my best work
Then I done went wrote me Streets, suddenly, "This is my best work"
Then I went, went wrote me T.I.M., now this is my best work
I think you get the point now, everything, it was my best work
But it's sad that out all my friends that I'm the one who made it out
They all wish they could be like me, they was wishing they could make clout
I offered 'em an opportunity, but they still denied it
I wish that I was there for 'em, that's always on my mind, bitch
Where did I go wrong in life? That's what I'm always asking
Where did I go wrong in life? That's what I'm always asking
I know that I make music, but my hobby isn't rapping
I know that I make music, but my hobby isn't rapping
M.I.O., it means "I made it out" (I made it out)
N.I.O., it means "No one made it out" (They made it out)
I wish it was other way 'round sometimes
'Cause I'm crying in my room while I write some lines
And I swear school's gettin' in my way, dawg
I want to find me something new, I need a different way, dawg
I need a different bae, dawg, she sniffin' white but she hate chalk
I might go and take my life, like, like, like today, dawg
