J Witt - The Climb Lyrics

Aye what can I do to get to the top?
Writing and recording these songs till I drop
Don't care what you think, no I'm not gonna stop
Got so much inside me I feel like I'll pop or bust
Don't like no one round me, I don't have no trust
Feel like there's a knife to my heart that's gon thrust
But I won't be complacent, I'm not gonna rust
Gonna take off and haters can all eat my dust!
But how can you make a record and get recognition
I'm writing these songs, lyrical ammunition
Every night I close my eyes and have a vision
But I'm sick of all these haters and their bitching
In a room full of people, feeling so alone
Got so many scars, call me Al Capone
I'm just laying down bricks, building my throne
Y'all used to ignore me now you're blowing up my phone
Yeah you wrote me off, and now you're crawling back
But I'm busy making songs and drinking jack
Yeah I'm killing tracks, dressed in all black
Super skinny slacks, Atlanta Braves hat
My songs pack a smack, I'm not making stacks
I'm doing crack, I'm not acting whack
Just spitting bars, pulling knives out my back
Turning on my mic and my Mac
Then it's like a battle inside of me, charge and attack
Not singing about a chick with a nice rack or fat ass
Or smoking grass but I'm feeling gassed
If this music shit's a test then I think I passed
Welcome to my class, cracking skulls like glass
This ain't my first song and won't be my last
You fake ass rappers me me contrast, how are you so different you ask?
Cause you're a stereotype, I'm an outcast
Like slim said, spitting bars till I collapse
Y'all are blazing grass, I'm blazing my own path, don't got enough cash to take a bath
But you doubting fags are gonna feel my wrath
Yeah I'mma roast you, you'll need a skin graph
Then I'll do like Heath, bite this razor and laugh
Like why so serious? I'm spitting bars like a seventy charger, fast and furious
I found this beat, was like damn this is glorious
Me and the fans don't need a label to carry us
I'm gonna die with this music then you can bury us
Yeah I may die but my music will live on
Got a few f*cks but I'll never ever give one
You wanna challenge me? Ok then game on
I'm not a superhero but it's boutta be flame on
Could never be a hero, I can't even save myself
Don't think I'll ever be happy, f*ck fame and wealth
I feel like I'm drowning, I'm outta my depth
Countless nights I've just sobbed and wept
It's been a long time since I've really slept
Sometimes I wonder if I'd be better off dead
Going through life always drunk and depressed
Got some things I wish I could get off my chest
I know this life that I've been living isn't my best
Finally found something to put myself to the test
To tell my story and stand apart from the rest
I just wanna help people going through the same shit
Feeling like you've dug a hole, you're stuck in the pit
It's time to climb out, you've just gotta commit
You might fall down, you gotta get up again
Don't call me a hypocrite for telling you this when
I'm stuck at the bottom with my pad and my pen
But if I can boost you up and help you get out
Then that's all I need, yeah that's what I'm about
I'mma just stay here taunted by my doubt
Get pissed, flip my shit, hit the wall and f*cking shout
I think that I'll be here forever, things ain't getting better
I feel so much pressure, no time for no pleasure
Used to be happy then I lost my treasure
She's the reason that I started writing
The reason that I'm scared to start climbing
So I sit in this pit full of shit, boutta bust like a zit
Feeling so alone, just call me J Witt, I'll admit when I spit it gives me a reason not to quit
So if I can help you get up to the top just make that jump, you gotta take that leap
Yeah, it might look steep and I know it's really deep
But you gotta keep on fighting, while I just sit here writing
Hey wipe them tears and quit crying
Fight your fears and keep on trying, look up cause the sun is rising
Just climb to the top and don't ever stop
Just make up your mind and leave this place behind
You might be surprised at what you find, you can't keep on living blind
You can get out this bind, you don't gotta be confined, you'll never know if you never try
Dig deep and take a look inside, I'm just here to let you know, from my own lonely dome
That this battle is all in your mind
And I'm here to help you climb
