Alive and Well |
Alive and well |
Back then my priority was to save myself |
Knew I had to get my head straight for I went all out to go chase the wealth |
always seein' through it |
3 am when we would get into it |
Mama cried like every night I didn’t mean to do it |
She just wanna know what I’m doin' but I don’t tell her though |
Whenever I tried explainin’s like she seen a ghost |
That’s why don’t say nothin' keepin' my eyes low just like they hoped |
Since high school it was me and C |
Listenin' motivation tapes while we on the way to get somethin' to eat |
Tryin' to drown this anxiety |
Questionin' these old views lookin' at the man like who the fuck are you |
Fuck up out my way I ain’t got shit to lose |
Mo’fucka I got shit to prove |
Remember walkin' in New York on my birthday |
Moms was still tryna get me to live her way |
Strollin' round time square feelin' boxed in with my soul drained |
Tired of fightin' they fears ain’t gon' carry no more dead weight |
Wrote two verses on the plane back home on some lonesome shit |
Sent the demo to Kora, she gave a hook, then we dropped that shit |
Somehow in the first week it hit 20k |
Universe by my side now I could finally show mom some change |
Tensions high like everyday |
But a lil' blue peekin' through the grey just validated the way we movin' |
Wasn’t tryna still be student |
Demons on me them shits be ruthless |
Think I gave my two sense about ten times |
Slowly shiftin' they paradigm |
I been adjusted to the fuckin' fights |
February 2017 was the second time I tried to drop out |
The first time I was 17 and I choked up and I tapped out |
Okay but now it’s fuck the past I’ma get it right no fucks given |
Tears shed every single day holdin' my position |
Family my opposition |
Even grandma begged me to listen |
They just hung up on old tradition |
I won’t pay attention let alone tuition |
Need to get it this fuckin' instance |
Always claimin' that I’m delusional |
Is what it is I’m not froze I’m blessed |
On house arrest 'till I need to leave then I’m gettin' faded |
Just to ease the stress I don’t feel enough |
Woke up faded always down too much |
Friends got they own niche need a goodnight that’s when we all get in touch |
Fuck around and then it’s back to business |
Need my balance but they don’t get it |
Lookin' at me like I’m pathetic |
That shit she talk I’m not interested |
I’m interjectin' tryna cut a deal |
Gimme two fuckin' years to show that this shit is real |
I’ma go and make what you make off the music and then see how you feel |
Took a second |
Said you only got two years to go make it happen |
May 2019 if you ain’t made it then you gotta quit the rappin' |
Finally they done quit the yappin' |
Finally I can get to actions |
Prayin' this whole fuckin' mess gon' work out and be worth the damage |
