SELF REFLECT Lyrics

Young kid with a dream

When I started this

Putting everything I got

Make it hard to miss

Every line that I jot is connecting every dot

Making me who I am

But I'm more than this

I swear

I look within myself

I take my time to self reflect

This life's a cycle and I'm getting lost

But I've never lost my self-respect

Man it felt like the world was against me

Everything that happened in my life would test me

Even though I let the bad energy get to me

It was a part of a process thankfully

To be the best of me

Yeah

I don't trust in perfect timing

The world is applying pressure but the pressure

What makes a diamond

The future bright and it's blinding

If I wanna do this right I need blinders

I can't be comparing myself to others

Ain't nobody out there showing their true colours

I've contemplated giving up with music

In the place I'm from

Nobody's doing what I'm doing

I don't wanna be stuck on

Pursuing, I hate it

So my only option

Is be the first one to make it

Cause I've had my heart

At the right place

At the wrong time

I gotta sacrifice everything for this

But I don't mind

Working late nights

In the dark

But the sun gon' shine

The next day so whatever

I ain't gonna be here forever

Cause I've had my heart

At the right place

At the wrong time

I know life's a bitch but

I want that bitch to be all mine

When the pain cuts deep

I pray that I'm gon' be fine

The next day so whatever

I ain't gonna be here forever

I'll never give up

You the one who taught me that I'll

Never give up

You the one who taught me that I'll

Never give up

It sound cliche I know

But the actions speaking louder

Than my words so I'm gon' show it

Waking up and I'm feeling exhausted

Thinking if I'm better than yesterday

Every chance that I've had, have I lost it

Am I making any progress anyway

I'm on step one

At least in my mind

Wonder why I'm always thinking

Like I'm falling behind

Maybe cause I'm living different

I don't follow the blind

My life ain't lined up but I don't fall in line

I put the pain to the pen I make a painting

I fell in love with the game

I can't acquaint with it

I been feeling like the outsider

People care about the out,

The inside's sour

It's the right hour

I plant a seed and I watch it sprout

All the dirt they been throwing

It has watered down

A rose grew on the concrete

And made this sound

And I rose to my feet now I'm ten toes down

Cause I've had my heart

At the right place

At the wrong time

I know life's a bitch but

I want that bitch to be all mine

When the pain cuts deep

I pray that I'm gon' be fine

The next day so whatever

I ain't gonna be here forever

I'll never give up

You the one who taught me that I'll

Never give up

You the one who taught me that I'll

Never give up

It sound cliche I know

But the actions speaking louder

Than my words so I'm gon' show it
