P Double - I Been Lyrics

I been tryna count my blessings, they don't want me in my zone
I been looking at the positives, can't let them throw me off
They don't see the vision, when you tryna do something different
They keep tryna hold me back, that's why I go so hard to get it
I can't let them stop me, I've been paving the Kingsroad

Guarding my energy is important now
I don't surround myself with people who keep talking things down
Avoid certain ones on purpose, cause I move with a purpose
And the people I was cool with on the surface, na, they don't deserve it
They be acting like I switched up
Like I'm the bad guy for asking more from life then them
Like it's wrong and I should be content with the life I was given
Instead of being deliberate in creating my vision
Like I was working this hard just for shits and gigs
And my goal was to stay local, do open mics where I live
Like this shit is just a joke, they never took me serious
Na fam gotta go, that shit would make me furious
Not everyone is gifted with ambitions being driven
With intrinsic motivation, I guess that was just the difference
But forgiven them allowed me to unleash the greatness
Now I focus my energy on where it's appreciated

I been tryna count my blessings, they don't want me in my zone
I been looking at the positives, can't let them throw me off
They don't see the vision when you tryna do something different
They keep tryna hold me back, that's why I go so hard to get it
I can't let them stop me I've been paving the Kingsroad

They gone hate you in the basement, they gone hate you when you make it
Shit they gone hate you regardless of what you saying
Just having enough balls to wake up and be yourself
When they gotta look in the mirror, and see somebody else
I try keeping that in mind when the comments are made
Cause pleasing everybody's an impossible game
So I tune it all out, don't give weight to opinions
Plus I'm way too indifferent I don't listen, too resilient
I See things from a perspective that I grew into
It's hard wishing health and happiness on those screwing you
But those are the tools I choose to align with peace of mind
Cause I know deep down inside, they just want a piece of mine
Just want to peek inside, get a glimpse what I see behind
The scenes that they're deprived of, gotta read between the lines
So I keep tryna find all the love and light
Sometimes someone's blessings are anothers fight

I been tryna count my blessings, they don't want me in my zone
I been looking at the positives, can't let them throw me off
They don't see the vision when you tryna do something different
They keep tryna hold me back, that's why I go so hard to get it
I can't let them stop me I've been paving the Kingsroad
