On My Own ft. AK The Menace Lyrics

Uh uh uh

Look

Them people around me, they couldn't tell how I was livin

Kept to myself, they couldn't tell how I was feelin

Fightin' these demons, sometimes it felt like they was winnin

Talkin' to God, sometimes it felt like he ain't listen

But it took me some time, I had to grow I did it quickly

I was just a child with some killas out to get me

When things were lookin' up, my depression came and hit me

Had me in my room at night wonderin' why God sent me

Now let me say it simply, I was really faithful

But every time a jit got ahead, he turned the table

But every time I fell to my knees, I felt more able

And every time a door closed on me, I was still grateful

And every time I got what I need, I'm feelin' thankful

Even when the curtain fall down the stage is stable

Even if the sun do not shine, the dark won't take me

If you know my past, you should know that you can't break me

It seemed like everybody had it good but me

They was lovin' but nobody was here for me

I was thuggin' on my own when it got ugly

Put a wrap all on that like it's a mummy

And I can't tell you what I'm really on

I'mma prevail even on my own

And I can't fail so I gotta stay strong

Oh yeah yeah yeah thuggin' on my own

It seemed like everybody had it goin' good

No childhood, all I ever had was hood

I wanted to be different and show the world some good

She knew I was from the jungle by the way I carry wood

I was always challenged, kept it movin' if I could

I was keepin' quiet but made noise in the hood

Hustle through the struggle, puttin' it that work

Make it out the dirt before you end up on a shirt

I was down bad with the tabs and the syrup

And the gas and the work had my path in a blur

I was down bad when a girl broke my heart

I was down bad, I don't know where to start

But don't let them people phase you, don't let 'em change you

You gotta maintain through and keep it stable

Don't let them people phase you, don't let 'em change you

You gotta maintain through and keep it stable

It seemed like everybody had it good but me

They was lovin' but nobody was here for me

I was thuggin' on my own when it got ugly

Put a wrap all on that like it's a mummy

And I can't tell you what I'm really on

I'mma prevail even on my own

And I can't fail so I gotta stay strong

Oh yeah yeah yeah thuggin' on my own

Ayy, I don't really think they understand what I've been through, man

Hard times growin' up, man

I had to grow up quick

It really felt like the world was against me

It left me with permanent scars, man

I couldn't even fake this

It seemed like everybody had it good but me

They was lovin' but nobody was here for me

I was thuggin' on my own when it got ugly

Put a wrap all on that like it's a mummy

And I can't tell you what I'm really on

I'mma prevail even on my own

And I can't fail so I gotta stay strong

Oh yeah yeah yeah thuggin' on my own
