Let me catch a break
Miss me with your pity party
Miss me with the fake
Me I'm tryna be somebody
Catch me on a wave
Catch me with a Scotty hotty
Me I'm going ape
Look at how I rage a party
Niggas wanna hate
Niggas never be about it
Niggas wanna break me
Niggas wanna see a thoty
Niggas wanna save her
Niggas never wanna see a young nigga make it
They tell me Kevo break bread
But how you finna break something that you never had yeah
They saying Kevo made stacks but how you finna make when you never had your chance yeah
They tell me Kevo made trash but how you finna know value when you never had it yeah
And I'll be counting on my blessings
Hoping one day I get to make it out the trenches yeah
I found myself rock bottom
Sitting at the dinner table
Looking for a job with my father. Yeah
I found myself rock bottom
Dropping out school
Bankrupt with my head in the gutter
I found myself rock bottom
Looking at my mom cry tears
When the bank took another
Yeah
Another pill hard to swallow
Me and all my family
Take another L like a lotto
Yeah
Yeah it's a hella dilemma
And it's almost December
Watching me and all my niggas try to get to the center
It's a city of dreams
You just gotta believe
I'm the life of the party when I embody the dream
I'm the knife so I cut you off when you not with the team
I'm a man of my own
But I am more than you see
You gave me all that I need
You gave me life and I breathe
I just don't get why you would take it all away in a blink
I'm working hard for the chips
I'm tryna polish the gift
Some days are good and other days I'm in the valley of beasts
I'm holding on to the people
I'm holding on to my needs
And every night I'm in pain
A lot days on my knees
I pray to God for a break
I pray a lot in my sleep
My girl could leave me today
But she around when I need
And when I feel like I'm about to lose it all in a minute
She come around and she sees
The man I am and could be
She keep me grounded for real
So I acknowledge the real
My sister down for me whenever I was lost in the bill
She gave me all she ever had even the last of her meals
And I just wanna see her graduate for me and her kid
