Persistence Lyrics

You know

I think this is about you

You are persistent

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence

Talent will not

Nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent

Keep going Austin

And may all the things that you desire

All the things that you worked hard to get

May God grant you your every wish

It's hard to take a vacation

Hard to sacrifice this much and stay patient

I gotta move forward

Even in my sleep I stay pacing

Highly concerned about where I'm placing

Mind stay racing

Truth is

They look at me for motivation

Truth is

They looking at my level to judge their elevation

True is

This was never perfect

It just look amazing

Truth is

I ain't got all the answers

I just play my aces

Truth is

I can't follow trends that I'm too busy making

Waking up in sweats

I feel we onto something

I don't operate knowing tomorrow's coming

Yeah I'm quick on my feet but don't run from nothing

I really used to think I gave my all for nothing

Sometimes it's much better to be different and I swear you ain't seen what I'm becoming

Feeling outlandish trying to reel it in

Swinging for the fence but ain't connected lately

Reaching out to friends like a text can save me

Giving every ounce cause what's the point in saving

You only judged by what you making

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

I once heard them say that revenge is a dish much better served cold

My shelves emptied

Trying to cater to 'em

I wasn't consoled

I'm done with that

Running out of business trying to run with the pack

People love forecasting my rise like an almanac

I need the love

Not here in my face

Instead behind my back

No easing up

I ain't come to terms with that like bad contracts

I'm even numb

To the ones that are there for me

Like what's the catch

Them be the ones

Hold favors over your head like bucket hats

Still waking up in sweats

I feel it's imminent

Stayed true to me regardless of they sentiments

I love the grind so much it's getting intimate

Till death do us part

And even then my spirit still living through these instruments

These sounds and these sentences

Got gifted a good heart and I deal with the consequence

They'll take your kindness for incompetence

I'm writing my story, you get to witness it

I'm living proof of see it go get it

So you can say you got to see what persistence gets

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care

Do you even care
