I'm going higher
I'm inspired to be the one who inspires
Real life is like the greatest show on earth
Had me breaking bad
But I found a way
To make it
Through the wire
A good sign felt
Far
But I follow all the way to the end
To build empires for me and my Friends
Guess we a couple mad men
Tryna make struggle past tense
Cheers to my insecurities
And how I mash them
I been learning and growing
And for my goals
I'll do whatever it takes
A year removed from high school
While I chase
Much improvement
Know it still ain't a race
But I go for home runs
I ain't the same kid that was running round base
Still a lot for me to learn
But I won't slack
Even when I think of my worst times
And just pray I don't go back
I know that
I never should hold back
And why I can't quit on what I want
I keep shooting like Novak
I'm proud of who I am
Prouder of who I'm becoming
Hard to be real
In a world of social media stunting
But I'm
Staying solid
Know I gotta choose to
Perfection is a myth
Don't let Instagram fool you
God blessed me with a gift
Gotta use it to the best that I can
To get some blessings for the rest of my fam
I been dejected but I go til the end
Feeling unstoppable
Know difficult not a synonym for impossible
I know what it's like
To feel like
You been losing
No contest
Feel like you putting work
But still ain't seeing no progress
I had to put it all in context
That any problems now
Ain't nothing to success I got next
Like no matter what occurs
I still gotta hold on my grip
Could shoot my shot 92 times
And have 92 bricks
But on the next I won't miss
I black out
I'm tryna lay a blueprint
Still in that h.o.v lane
I won't switch
That's my stance
And I won't turn
Wrote it down
Like paraphrasing
Had to put it in my own words
Had to look at those same words
And believe it
A major key for me
Is pray it and speak it and receive it
And I mean it
Can't be thrown off my game like a heckler
Been through things felt pains I wouldn't put on a record
But now I'm feeling like I shouldn't lose
Been down
But I took those shots
And now I'm bullet proof
Understanding that what's passed is my past
Appreciating what I got ain't stressing bout what I lack
But that don't mean I don't go off and attack
I still got dreams
So until the mission complete
I still go deep in my bag
That's just me pardon my swag
I'm Haitian pardon my flag
You hating pardon my back
I play my part for that bag
Been top 5 since Scarlett's
I been in a different class
Inherited nipseys hussle
Wait til my victory lap
Know who I am I've accepted it fully
Everybody Hates Chris
Joey Caruso
I'm back on my bully
Young boy but that don't mean I'm a rookie
Battle tested so I could chill but that don't mean you could push me
Life is yin and yang
White and black no apartheid
Still I shine big like big Sean
Find paradise through these dark skies
And I'm still prepared for these hard times
I just know the job get done better when you clock in on God's time
