PERSONAL

Verse:

Need to isolate
‘cause I’m getting older
Things were not always this way
They were tough when I was younger
Daddy ain't have too much
In fact, we had very little
Sometimes I wondered why he didn’t give it up
When our resources were minimal, yeah
Imagine sacrificing
Imagine packing all your bags
And moving out the country
Laving everything you know behind you
Like it’s nothing
Off to foreign land
Where you don’t even know the language
And can't afford a sandwich

Bridge:

And if I don’t make something out of me
What was it for
Everything else is secondary
This is personal

Chorus:
On me, yeah
Now I got the pressure on me
Gotta keep it moving forward
Like Thierry Henry
Sorry, but please don’t bother me
I’ve got way too much to lose
It’s more than just a hobby
Homie this is personal
Terminal the way that I do it
Has got to be purposeful
Vertical, I stumbled
But I had to learn to be versatile
Retinal, my vision is clear
And now I gotta get it all, oh

On me, yeah
Now I got the pressure on me
Gotta keep it moving forward
Like Thierry Henry
Sorry, but please don’t bother me
I’ve got way too much to lose
It’s more than just a hobby
Homie this is personal
Terminal the way that I do it
Has got to be purposeful
Vertical, I stumbled
But I had to learn to be versatile
Retinal, my vision is clear
And now I gotta get it all, oh

Verse:
Indecisive ‘bout the way I’m going
I’m trying to read between the lines
But crosshatches are known for their distortions
And I fought through times
Even when things weren’t clear
So when things get uncomfortable
I find comfort in conquering my fears
You could never break me, never
We’ve come too far and fought too hard
To even consider the possibility
Of turning around, you ain’t clever
Any negative ties I sever
Honestly, I think that I owe it to God
To take full advantage of the life that he gave me
But I just a simple man
With a lot of ambition
A diamond in the rough but I’ll listen, one day
And when I finally shine
It won't be a coincidence
When I finally shine it won't be a coincidence

Bridge:

And if I don’t make something out of me
What was it for
Everything else is secondary
This is personal

CHORUS*

On me, yeah
Now I got the pressure on me
Gotta keep it moving forward
Like Thierry Henry
Sorry, but please don’t bother me
I’ve got way too much to lose
It’s more than just a hobby
Homie this is personal
Terminal the way that I do it
Has got to be purposeful
Vertical, I stumbled
But I had to learn to be versatile
Retinal, my vision is clear
And now I gotta get it all, oh
