Lyrics
That's how life goes
Yeah that's how life goes
The more quiet the night
The louder my thoughts
On my hand I tatted a cross
I find god whenever I'm lost
I humble myself he's the one I'll call
If you see me defeated just know that I fought
There's a reason they need me to be in the dark
My potential broke levels that no body saw
I'm special won't settle for less I'm a Star
I'm not the typical rapper
The message in my music actually matters
My music Will live after I'm in a casket
I'm never gon' quit till I'm moving the masses
Imagine a life where I lacked all my passion
And never poured my heart and soul into rapping
I'd be miserable wondering what would happen
If I wouldn't chase my dream
That thought does damage it's funny
Kids from high school who kept dissing
All work at McDonald's I'll take a MC-chicken
Can't expect the blind to ever see your vision
You peaked in high school now you hate that I'm winning
I'm grinning this isn't me bragging or gloating
This is a reminder my drive hasn't broken
Devoted still going even at my lowest
Opponents stay hoping I'll fail when I'm chosen
These moments i'm living are real
They Don't care how I feel
I got wounds that Don't heal
And I need love still
Why you running for the hill
You won't answer me I get it
Let's be honest I am gifted
I know when energy's shifting
I know when your acting different
I know you think I Don't listen
I know you think I'm to driven
But that's something that you should know
A mediocre life's a joke
I rather have family close
I'd rather be inside a home
I'd rather have someone to hold
I'd rather smile when I'm old
If I have that but I'm broke
Then tell me who's really broke?
While I'm absent I've grown
But now I'm coming for the throne
Spent to Many nights feeling like I'm inadequate
Letting my mind tell me I should be sad again
Despite my life going right I felt stagnant
Realized the time passing by can't be had again
So I got up and my drive was my catalyze
Manifested the life I been imagining
I put the time in this isn't an accident
The rise of me yo I'm feeling immaculate
Haven't been home I been in my mind
Don't know we're just a matter of time
One minute your living the next one you die
There's some things that money simply can't buy
See you May have eyes but you can not see
You live in a box so you are not free
Life's a gift from god that you can not keep
Going against the odds the best way to think
Believing in is me is all I can do
Surrounded by haters doubters and fools
Who Will come around when I got the jewels
There here when I win but bail when I lose
It's funny how money makes change out of people
And paper dictates who's unworthy or equal
In my eyes that's the definition of evil
When materials the only they see you
I need you hear me and take this to heart
You are the reason you are where you are
Awaken your mind and follow the stars
One day they'll align and take you afar
I know life is hard the pressure is heavy
When nobody knows that your feeling unsteady
But still have to show up and feeling so empty
You're never rewarded there's never confetti
There's envy and anger never been stranger
To a life where it feels like your being anchored
Living inside of your mind feeling dangerous
Watching them fall but you can not save em
You can't save yourself your living in hell
The smile on your face makes it hard to tell
And there's no one helps
The lonely journey to your self
