I can’t believe that I made it here Either out of my passion or out of fear Please just give me a sec Was drivin’ the train when it fell off the track Met a couple of jokers along the way It’s easy to laugh when you’re far away I was able to dodge an attack But a pig isn’t happy when denied a piggyback I’m wasting my time just addressing ‘em Probably give ‘em adrenaline Messin’ it up Writin’ this just for the hell of it You know my pettiness big as an elephant Tell me that I’m the one wasting my time Yeah, I’m the one that’s wasting my time (huh) My work in these last two years Is nothing compared to the effort you put into Making sure I knew I wasn’t enough Making sure I didn’t wanna wake up Making sure I didn’t know what it was That gave me the right to deserve any love I’m tired of fakin’ that my generation Is willing to fight more than hide in a basement There’s difference between what you say to their face And the words that you type in a text a day later I’m tired of hearing the classic who did it When people are pointing all ten of their fingers There’s no credibility, ain’t no stability When you can unleash your hatred anonymously We all hated the villains in fairy tales Good guy will win and the bad guy will fail But the question now isn’t what others will do It’s the question of if you will let them get through to you I let you push me around for a little bit I know you hated the way that I kept at it You used to make me retreat at the sound of your name But I’m ready to step out the cave You’re not villains that I used to read in the books You’re the little old witch that would hide in the woods You’ll just stay at my door screamin’ I never win but (I already did) Never let them see your face Never let them say your name Never tell yourself that it’s too late for them to take your pride away Now isn’t this fun? You’ll play the king, I’ll play the pawn I tried, I failed, I lept, I fell But keep on laughing, LOL (Keep on laughing, LOL) All my life I’ve been lookin’ for a payday Day to day, there’s no strategy I wanna be my idols but be a pioneer And I feel like this been done before, so let me switch gears By the age of ten I wanted to pretend I could tour around the world in our family minivan By eleven, now my bedtime wasn’t seven But I dreamed it with my head in the clouds My brain in heaven (yeah) By twelve, my mind dwelled in myself Should’ve called help when I lept and I fell It’s that age when the cliques start clickin’ And the clothes stop fittin’ And the friends start switchin’ (ay) Thirteen, first kiss, first love First night out late, first all of the above Fourteen, new school New people you can love, new people you can hate (No people you can trust) Moving on, fifteen, got no self-esteem Got more sleep than dreams Covid hit the scene Released the first track, took a couple steps back Got comfortable but never relaxed Relapsed, free backs, sixteen, at last Got an album on the table Got a beat that could be fatal Got a label that he made He’ll never be known to be stable Topsy turvy like a dreidel Little like he makin’ play-doh But he’s seventeen now He’s seventeen (wow) And if there’s one thing that I learned They’ll take what you love and use it as fire Well what’d you expect man I’m back, you think I retired? Never let them see your face Never let them say your name Never tell yourself that it’s too late for them to take your pride away Now isn’t this fun? You play the king, I’ll play the pawn I tried, I failed, I lept, I fell But keep on laughing LOL (Alright, that seems like a good place to end it Damn, two and a half years and it’s finally over Nah, I’m just kiddin’, give me one more minute Here we go) (Ay, ay, ay, ay) If I never make it and I was just wasted I’m glad that you stayed for the show (ay) Now I ain’t a chemist, my motion kinetic Potential is all that I own (ay) Two years in the makin’, not Kevin, I’m bakin’ The music, the rhymes, and the flow (ay) I’m basically finished, just give me a minute I promise then I will be gone Will I get picked up or left on the side of the road? I feel like I’m paranoid What is my selling point? Wanna be different but not make ‘em annoyed Just the suburban boy More like a humanoid Lyrics so cold you would think that I’m Illinois Actually, I take it back You can scratch that Easy to talk a big game like a Cadillac When in reality, feel like a grey Kia Soul With a dent in the bumper and nothin’ but holes I mean seriously, feasibly, ever so easily It’s been a very humbling experience See, I have some tracks I can’t even defend That I’m still too embarrassed to show to my friends And not even my family knows what I’m writin’ I’m scared that they’ll know what I bottle inside And the people around me don’t know what I’m dealin’ with Even the close ones, you don’t know the half of it Wow, this verse got a little too real But shouldn’t my lyrics reflect how I feel? Don’t drag all your problems straight into the light ‘Cause it makes you look weak and easy to fight And do y’all think that I am blind? I see kids in the hall get that look in their eyes When they notice me, so to speak Chortle and choke at me I know when you only validate jokingly Don’t tell me my writing could be better when you can’t even write one letter Don’t tell me I’m awful again and again when I know that you listened beginning to end And I’m done with the drama, don’t even bother Mastered my work and I’m takin’ it farther But I’m signing off, you know that I love ya Been a long trip to finish what I started
