I wake up thinking, damn, another day
I sit back, searching, it must be another way
Because this shit here, it just ain't worth it
Alone and I don't have shit
Stress, and that's to say the least
Lost ever since I left my home on the East
I had a plan I was ready for
Full force, I was ready for more
A big house and fast cars like the ones on the TV
I had to make it, that had to be me
As time passes, it moves faster
Moving as if it don't last
Am I stuck in a slow lane?
Trying hard, but I don't even maintain
Days go by quicker than the blink of an eye
I'm confused, I sit back and I wonder why
I don't pick fights, I finish them
Don't waste time on those I'm better than
Because I know what y'all are trying to do
Bring me down and make me the same as you
But best believe I turn my back on it
I know you, and I know you don't want it
Asking myself why this shit has to happen
I'm tired, but I continue to tap in
Too many questions that I have
Falling, and I'm looking for a hand that I can grab
Someone who'd say this shit would get better
This world is cold, so let me put on this sweater
Just nasty motherf*ckers trying to ruin my day
I play it off as if I'm okay
I understand, but I'll be damned to put up with it
Trying and never having shit
So I focus, knowing that the seasons change
Pieces to the puzzle, I rearrange
It sounds strange, but I'm thankful for the lessons
It doesn't stop, life is always in session
But it's the vision, I go ahead on this mission
It's on me and you can't stop the ambition
I don't pick fights, I finish them
Don't waste time on those I'm better than
Because I know what y'all are trying to do
Bring me down and make me the same as you
But best believe I throw my back on it
I know you, and I know you don't want it
