I've been workin' like I've never I struggle every day but I can't let the devil in And if I knew back then what I right now What I right now I'd be better than I've ever been, than I've ever been
You ever wonder what it all really Heart full of dreams, I I'mma do it, get it by any means Serving food for the thought it's rock to the fiends I said this shit for years boy, this life ain't it seems Sayin' that you can't just solidifies you never will you would, said you could, but you ain't got the skill You gotta climb the mountain to master the hill You gotta climb over ego to master your will Gave up on your dreams for a and a pension God damn, I hope here for the intervention You say you would if you had the money, don't me mention That cost you nothin' but time for you to pay attention Now don't get me wrong, I know there's out there hatin' on ya And it feel like your self-esteem is on ya All they ever seem to do is hate you speak They spend days preyin' on the weak I know the sleepin' on ya like a sedative Talk all you about me homie, I'mma let it live Hater this, hater that, say I repetitive in your blood, you was born to be negative
Never I struggle day but I just can't let the devil in And if I knew back then what I right now I know right now I'd be better I've ever been, better than I've ever been
This is dedicated to everyone never made it And the that persevered even though they was hated had a dream and a vision that they follow like a religion But on the real the to success is prone to collision And every now and then something happens unexpected Like newborn in your life because you fuckin' unprotected And I nobody perfect, hell I know I ain't Yeah I know this is heaven sent but I'm far from a saint Live a life with no complaints, tryna do what I can from my father's mistakes and become a better man Now plant a 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 could write this I knowledge like the listener is my only son And grip the mic I'm at war and it's my only gun this journey to the top can be a lonely one Yeah, and this lap a lonely run my hometown screamin' you the chosen one Tellin' myself, don't choke, don't be the one
