Lyrics
Yeah
Before I start this off, I just want to say like
I want this more than anything
And it's still early on but
Sometimes I don't know how much more I can sacrifice
I don't know how much more I got left in me
But I got this, here
I'mma tell you this story while I'm blazing
Shit that's a chronicle (Get it?)
I grew up just a little different (How?)
Didn't have many common goals
Childhood homies turned out to be snakes
Shit, that's diabolical
Did I do something?
Probable, but I am not responsible
For their opinions of me, I'm a human, shit I bleed
And sometimes I lie about my feelings
Drop down to knees and plead
And think "why oh why God me"
Like we talk regularly
Knowing damn well he's shaking his head every single day at me
Oh Lord, I am not the greatest person on this Earth
And sometimes I get caught up inside this curse
To try to prove to all these fucking pricks my worth
When I can't convince myself of my own worth (No I can't)
How the fuck am I supposed to move onward (Onward)
When I've been pinned down by these clowns since my birth
Fuck the fame, I rather just wear my Hanes shirt
And be buried six feet deep 'fore I eat dirt (Yeah, nah)
This game has changed me this early on (How?)
Trust issues developed long beforehand
But it's gotten worse as I've gone on to meet (What)
Some of these OG greats and work with them
But do they just want my bucks
Or do they actually respect me for my skill, but my luck
They probably think I suck (Yeah)
And scam me out my money for features
The labels look your way to sign you
But then place you on bleachers
And all that shit you learn 'bout yourself is not taught by them teachers
Snakes peeping you on the Gram, till you blow up
Like your the creeper (Ha)
And that's just some real shit
Even when my foot's off the gas, I'm still lit
Have the power to fill up a building
With people who respect me if I feel it
In my bloodstream to live a dream
I've been busy ducking behind the scenes
But it's time I get more caked up
Then I already fucking be
Oh Lord, I am not the greatest person on this Earth
And sometimes I get caught up inside this curse
To try to prove to all these fucking pricks my worth
When I can't convince myself of my own worth (No I can't)
How the fuck am I supposed to move onward (Onward)
When I've been pinned down by these clowns since my birth
Fuck the fame, I rather just wear my Hanes shirt
And be buried six feet deep 'fore I eat dirt (Yeah, nah)
Nah
I'm not gonna let me down again
In the back of my mind I can see me standing in
A real studio, in front of crowds again
Or perform in front of a crowd to just begin
Never once again sleep in
Work even on the weekends
And I know Karma's on it's way
To set trends to so called friends
In another lifetime one day
We'll make amends, highly doubtful
Slept on me even when
I was on my deathbed
Stayed silent all these years, now this shit ends
