People ask me “how you do it? How’d you get your inspiration
“What gives you the aspiration to think one day you’ll be famous
“What makes you so different from other in your radius
“How do you plan to show out exactly what all this MDC name is
I don’t have the advantage of being popular or wealth
You don’t understand I had to do it by myself
Unless I went and begged, almost no one gave me help
So when people ask from me it’s like a blow below the belt
I took me around, picked myself up when I was down
Lifted myself up off the ground, I was lost myself I found
I kept on coming back when they said I was down for counts
I kept on fucking writing when they disapproved my sound
You don’t see my stress with writing when I’m all alone at home
With how long I have to struggle to find a simple tone
No one hypes me up when I trynna find my zone
What you have to understand is that I do this on my own
Been down so long, no one gave a hand so no more complaints
I'm tying up loose ends climbing out this hole but i wont need your help
Cause i can do it by myself yeah i can do it by myself yeah yeah
Don’t you ever tell me that I haven’t gone the distance
Don’t you ever tell me that they leveled my resistance
Don’t you ever tell me that you question my existence
I already played that out telling myself every instant
I give me expectations that no one could understand
Then I put myself through things that I know no one else can
And I don’t feel complete till I reject helping hands
Cuz it took to be alone to get exactly where I’m at
But sometimes being alone makes me feel so insignificant
One minute I feel proud and the next I’m feeling different
People play my song and then tell me that they’re into it
But when I do all I can think is why’d I even write this shit
The thing with being alone is you’re always in your head
It’s a very empty road something I’d never recommend
But if I had to start over I’d do it all myself again
I did it alone from the start I’ll do it alone until the end
Been down so long, no one gave a hand so no more complaints
I'm tying up loose ends climbing out this hole but i wont need your help
Cause i can do it by myself yeah i can do it by myself yeah yeah
