Yeah Yeah Look I'll be honest, it's been a really long night Working all the time, no time left for the high life Rollin' with the boys got me messed up cuz they all lie Saying how they got my back, but they playin' with sharp knives I'm used to it by now since it's happened so many times I need me some yellow tape for all their committed crimes Against me and my soul, I swear they wanna see me die But when my time comes I swear they all gon' see me fly It's my time to shine, it's time to call the big shots Now they wanna be on the same team since I hold the rock But I won the game they playing and I wear the ring proud We used to see eye to eye, but now I just look down I don't lend a shoulder to em no more that's all dead weight It's enough strain on me carrying all of my past pain It's a stone cold world and I'm just tryna find my way But I'll believe that ima make it big to see a better day Yeah, can't trust them no more Can't trust them man I Fell in love with a bad girl who had a different vision Turning up every weekend and making some dumb decisions But who am I to judge, it's a hard life and she was tryna live it So I can't really blame her for all the things that she was into Now I'm free of her chains, I barely made it out alive But it's hard to see her alone even though she's with a guy She hit my phone saying how she miss what we use to have But I had to shut her down cuz she ain't apart my new plan We been there and done that with the whole concept of second chances With the sticks and stones she threw on me I could build a mansion I told her she need to move on and to go and pack her bags Cuz she about to board a flight that she knows will never land It's one way trip she taking and that's her own choice And she knows it's at her lost, who's better than your boy, uh She'll never know the same love and that's just tough luck Now she living with her actions, chasing fake love Every story that I tell is just a stepping stone that I took to make it here I did it on my very own I ditched the comfort of my people and I hit the road I'm glad my mom loves me for who I am and brought me home Where I'd be if she didn't is to be left unknown Till this day, I owe her my very soul I wrote this song cuz I had to go and let 'em know That I'm a king and I'm sitting on my very throne My father said days would come when I'd shed some tears And face a lonely road, maybe have to face some fears I've seen him have do the same, so now I see it clear Anytime a man face a weakness it's a learning lesson You take these moments and you mask it as a hurtful blessing Pain will always rip you down but only if you let it So here I stand, reaching for my dreams, I wanna get it Tell me what I gotta do to place a bet, nah forget it Friends are close, enemies always staying closer The ones that say that they your brother say they never foldin' Until you need a helping hand, they just leave you hopeless Y'all the reason why I'm outchea always acting soulless It's like I'm outchea fighting demons with a wooden sword And killing me softly to me is stupid metaphor I got these problems with no answers that I'm searching for So I gotta find the key to peace and unlock the door
