Yeh, yeh, uh
Cuz half the shit that I write ain't got shit to do with my life
It's so mainstream yeh, got you feelin right
Deeper songs that I write, that's where I been through the fight
Stay underground yeh, cuz they don't bring you no light
No I don't need your sympathy
I am who I am please don't feel sorry for me now
Cuz the hell I escaped, not much left to say
Fact of the matter is it made me who I am today
Things that I been through, I can't believe I lived through
If I told you all my story
Half of ya'll probably ignore me
And it's okay
Half of the shit ya'll couldn't escape
I remember the time
Yeh, I wasn't alright
The day I lost it all I went crazy
Tried to end it all but they saved me
Truth is I couldn't handle losing my first baby
Yeah God just threw me off why do he play me (damn)
They say don't forget me when you're rich and famous
Where the hell were y'all when I was broke and nameless
Don't hit me up on no congratulations, yeh
If you watched me starve you don't deserve an invitation
Mama seen all of the signs, needed a stronger spine
Knew what to do yeh, she wasn't right
No fault of mine, no the blame it ain't mine
No victim card nah, all ten toes to the line, yeh
The first time I was violated
I spoke on it and still he skated
Emotional, mental, physical, sexual, every form you name it
Abuse of any kind by third grade already faced it
I never used a drug in my life
But you can bet I was the plug once or twice
Through it all still I rise it's elevation, yeh
And I don't say this shit to just be an inspiration
Excuse me when I fail participation
This energy requires preservation
Cuz it's all that I got, whether I like it or not
And if it all goes away, I might just fade away, fade away
They say don't forget me when you're rich and famous
But where the hell were y'all when I was broke and nameless
Don't hit me up on no congratulations
If you watched me starve you don't deserve an invitation
They say don't forget me when you're rich and famous
But where the hell were y'all when I was broke and nameless
Don't hit me up on no congratulations
If you watched me starve you don't deserve an invitation
You don't deserve an invitation
