The World Against Me

(Verse 1)

Streetlights flicker on the dash, I’m ridin’ with my thoughts again

Windows down, the city hums, it’s me against the world I’m in

They said I’d never make it far, they laughed when I began

But every mile I’m gettin’ closer to the person that I planned

(808’s)

(Pre‑Chorus)

I kept my dreams in the glovebox, tucked away from all their doubt

But pressure makes a diamond, and I’m finally breakin’ out

(Chorus)

Late‑night drives got me feelin’ alive

Chasin’ every goal I set, watch me rise

They never believed, but I stayed on my grind

Now I’m hittin’ every target that I drew in my mind

Yeah, these late‑night lights, they’re guidin’ my life

And I’m done bein’ quiet about my climb

(Verse 2)

I remember every “you can’t do it,” every door slammed in my face

But I turned all that rejection into fuel I could embrace

Now I’m cruisin’ past the places where they told me I should quit

Funny how the same ones doubted me are askin’ how I did it

(Pre‑Chorus)

I kept my dreams in the glovebox, tucked away from all their doubt

But pressure makes a diamond, and I’m finally breakin’ out

(Chorus)

Late‑night drives got me feelin’ alive

Chasin’ every goal I set, watch me rise

They never believed, but I stayed on my grind

Now I’m hittin’ every target that I drew in my mind

Yeah, these late‑night lights, they’re guidin’ my life

And I’m done bein’ quiet about my climb

(Bridge)

Maybe they were scared of what I’d be

Maybe they just couldn’t see

But I kept drivin’, kept survivin’

Now the future’s waitin’ on me

(Final Chorus)

Late‑night drives got me feelin’ alive

Chasin’ every goal I set, watch me rise

They never believed, but I stayed on my grind

Now I’m hittin’ every target that I drew in my mind

Yeah, these late‑night lights, they’re burnin’ so bright

And I’m finally livin’ the life I designed
