My young ones heartless, you can feel their pain
Tryna make it out, runnin’ track, close range
Depression so heavy, drivin’ me insane
I’m tryna do better, but it feel the same
Remember the nights I stayed up thinkin’ better days
Cousin got indicted, yeah, that brought more pain
Model on the screen, she just want more fame
I used to starve, askin’ God, “why me?”
Told my inner self I promise I won’t change
But depression hittin’, this is not a game
Mood swings heavy, I can’t even explain
Fightin’ anxiety stuck in my brain
A constant battle, but I still maintain
I was runnin’ with the wild ones, I never behaved
Class clown, always center stage
Every smile I showed, I was frontin’ that page
Thought I was cool skippin’ class every week, though
Stand for somethin’, even take a knee, though
Grindin’, young legend, I got the cheat code
Tryna make it out the hood, tryna reach goals
Grandma my heart, since you been gone, I struggle
Miss your sweet soul
Emotionally guarded, I keep it all closed
Better not speak on what you see, keep it low
Better not speak on what you see, keep it low

Verse 2 (Cleaned)
Holdin’ grudges, heavy weight, it’s hard to let it go
Play with trust, you learn fast how the story go
No mercy for the fake, only real ones close
Move with caution, never let ‘em get too close
Condolences to the families hurt by the struggle
Life too short, every day I stay humble
My brother stay ready, ten toes when it’s trouble
Ten toes when it’s trouble
Happiness and sadness, I’m stuck in the middle
Tryna balance life, every day is a riddle
Fell in love with progress, that never changed
Had to grow up fast, elevate my lane
Saved up, made moves, started buildin’ my vision
Life taught lessons, I pay attention
Every setback only add to my mission
Now I’m focused, locked in position

Final Hook
My young ones heartless, you can feel their pain
Tryna make it out, runnin’ track, close range
Depression so heavy, drivin’ me insane

Remember the nights I stayed up thinkin’ better days
Cousin got indicted, yeah, that brought more pain
