I've been workin' like I've never I every day but I just can't let the devil in And if I knew back what I know right now I know right now I'd be better than I've ever been, better than I've ever
You ever what it all really means? Heart full of dreams, I I'mma do it, get it by any means Serving food for the thought like it's to the fiends I said this for years boy, this life ain't what it seems Sayin' that you can't just solidifies you never will Said you would, said you could, but you got the skill You climb the highest mountain to master the hill You gotta climb over your ego to your will Gave up on your for a suit and a pension God damn, I hope you're here for the You say you would if you had the money, don't make me That it'll cost you nothin' but for you to pay attention Now don't get me wrong, I know there's people out hatin' on ya And it like your self-esteem is breakin' on ya All they seem to do is hate when you speak spend seven days preyin' on the weak I know the world sleepin' on ya like a Talk all you want about me homie, I'mma let it Hater this, hater that, say I repetitive Hatin' in your blood, you was to be negative

This is to everyone that never made it And the people persevered even though they was hated They had a dream and a vision that they follow a religion But on the real the road to success is to collision And now and then something happens that's unexpected Like newborn in your life because you fuckin' unprotected And I nobody perfect, hell I know I ain't Yeah I know this verse is heaven sent but I'm far a saint Live a life no complaints, tryna do just what I can Learn from my father's mistakes and become a man Now a seed and watch 'em grow, teach 'em everything I know Show him how to his battles and always go toe to toe And this I know cause I high, low, right, wrong But I had to do it all just so I write this song I spit like the listener is my only son And the mic like I'm at war and it's my only gun Sometimes this to the top can be a lonely one Yeah, and victory lap a lonely run While my hometown screamin' you the one Tellin' myself, don't choke, don't be the one
