I've been holding onto day by day
I let go something like yesterday
How can you look into my eyes and say the same thing?
That everybody’s tryna tell me everyday
"Be realistic." It was only meant to cage me
It's just a matter of time before I break
I seethe, I breathe into an ember
I hope it bursts into a flame that you remember
Light up the shadows so now I can see them better
They call me friend, but are they? I just don't remember
I am a nobody, but I’m trying to find myself
This busted road I stumble on, I know too well
I'll build this kingdom on my own, I don't need help
This is the drive that flows and pumps
Through every blood cell in myself
And I've been searching for my faith, but now it's all gone
I need to build myself from scratch and that's the hard part
Be unpredictable and call yourself a wild card
‘Cus when you're on the grind you gotta be a diehard
I've been holding onto day by day
I let go something like yesterday
When I am all alone, I see my true colors unfold
They’re bursting forth to make themselves known to the world
I know that if I just stay strong, and hope, I won’t suffer long
Once I harness my resolve, I will set forth and carry on
I have got nothing left to prove
I know my worth
Now I don't have to answer to you
I have won this game, you lose
I have got nothing left to prove
I know my worth
