| It’s such a cold world, ain’t it?
|
| When every dream you have is starting to look tainted
|
| Moms ain’t around, she struggles to keep the light on
|
| Them second hand clothes to try on
|
| Toes sticking out the front of your shoes
|
| And all your friends keep laughing all the time but not you
|
| It seems like a thousand years
|
| Must have cried like a thousand tears, but now I’m here
|
| And God knew where to put me
|
| Shit was not sweet, no milk and no cookies
|
| Schools said he ain’t worth the trouble
|
| So I made a few plans and sold a couple grams
|
| Lost a lot of close people on the way
|
| Memories were celebrated the same day
|
| That’s how it goes
|
| I’m in the mud trying to find a rose
|
| So I’m gonna keep
|
| I keep jumping over hurdles, hurdles
|
| I just keep jumping over hurdles, hurdles
|
| Endlessly, I’m just so determined
|
| I won’t let go, I keep jumping over hurdles
|
| Make it eventually
|
| I never thought I’d see this
|
| Had them cuff prints embedded in both of my damn wrists
|
| Came from the bottom like I never stood a chance
|
| Went from hugging the block to hearing the crowds chant
|
| And now they talking about the old me and miss him
|
| How we could have made it together but they would never listen
|
| I kept swimming upstream
|
| With a pocket full of nickels and a fist full of dreams
|
| See the clouds go away, my days get sunny
|
| They might have took a shot but they ain’t take shit from me
|
| Standing on my own two, roaming with the wrong crew
|
| Showed how to move when that paper turned funny
|
| But it’s all love, I know I’m right where I need to be
|
| And dedicate this to those who never believed in me
|
| Yeah, to those who never believed
|
| I keep jumping over hurdles, hurdles
|
| I just keep jumping over hurdles, hurdles
|
| Endlessly I’m just so determined
|
| I won’t let go I keep jumping over hurdles
|
| Make it eventually
|
| Ups and downs
|
| I’m gonna keep on jumping until I can’t touch the ground
|
| I know it’s hard but I made it so far, I’ve made it so far
|
| And I don’t know, no
|
| Where I’m gonna go, I keep |
