I'll Be ft. AXYL Lyrics

Lost in the crowd

Screaming these words out loud

One day I'll be something

Lost till I'm found

Screaming my truth out loud

One day I'll be something

Pops crossed over so he had to be the man

Never be that nigga always holding out a hand

He and Mama had to eat, so he's steady on the streets

Kept his wits about him, so he's steady on his feet

Only thing of value was his lyrics and the beat

Every show he's backstage tryna bring a little heat

But he never got the chance, he knew he had a plan

And Papa said rejection, that's the making of a man

So he gotta make a choice, will you fall or will you stand?

But he feel like he marooned and I ain't talking 'bout the band

His friends say "Dude, you're delusional as hell

Can't you tell that shit you spit ain't never gonna sell?"

So he finds himself a hustle, had to find a way to cope

To pay for studio time he would sling a little dope

His dreams are getting closer, he can see it on the tide

And if you feel the same, let me hear you testify

Singing

Lost in the crowd

Screaming these words out loud

One day I'll be something

Lost till I'm found

Screaming my truth out loud

One day I'll be something

This one's for the dreamers, we about to make a killin'

For every door you slammed on us

We're coming for the building

They recognise the talent but they focus on your flaws

Till they leave you washed up

Like you're sitting on the shores

Label heads tryna put a figure on your soul

They be dangling the fame, but let freedom be your goal

You're selling out the venues but you living on a dime

Is what happens when you put a price on a piece of mind

I just want a piece of mine, Sir, thank you for your time

I'm giving as I take something like a sixty-nine

How come when you keep it real your shit don't get played?

Yet they poison you with comments on their Instagram page

Only thing I promise you is truth in every line

Champagne is for later so let's share a little wine

You can break our hearts, you will never break our spirits

We're bursting out the scene, sing with me if you believe it

Saying

Lost in the crowd

Screaming these words out loud

One day I'll be something

Lost till I'm found

Screaming my truth out loud

One day I'll be something

One day I'll be... King
