[Intro] Did you ever think you'd make it? Tell the truth, you kinda faked it Hard work, yeah, we baked it Outta nothing, we just shaped it (hey!) [Verse 1] Used to count coins in a jar in my closet Dreams scribbled small on the back of a deposit Sleep on the floor, big plans in a shoebox Stomach say empty, brain yelling "do not" Mama say "rest", I was busy being restless Eyes on the clock, every second felt precious Caffeine, code, rhymes on a cracked screen Turned my breakdowns to a backbone for the last scene Every missed call, every text left hanging Built me a wall I could sprint off, landing Whole squad doubted, then switched when I rose up Funny how they show love once you glow up [Pre-Chorus] Did you ever think you'd make it? Be honest, you were scared inside Every smile, yeah, you faked it But you still showed up each time All those long nights, you ate it Every L turned into drive Now that crowd sound sacred Hear your name like a war cry [Chorus] Did you ever think you'd make it? (make it) Standing on the stage that you painted (painted) All those sleepless nights you faked it (faked it) Now the whole world watching, you the favorite (favorite) Sweet victory, taste that burn From the tears you had to earn Did you ever think you'd make it? Look around, yeah, you made it [Verse 2] I remember job apps, never got a callback Scrolling through the mess like, "Maybe I'm all cap" Friends getting rings, I was chasing these things They were picking out cribs, I was living off streams Every "not yet" felt like "not ever" Till I learned roadblocks just mean drive better Turned every doubt into data I could weaponize Turned every "why you?" to "of course, check the record, guy" I was sick of being almost, tired of being nearly Talked to myself in the mirror till I heard me clearly "Either be afraid or be busy" — had to choose one So I killed the old fear, now the new me got two lungs [Pre-Chorus] Did you ever think you'd make it? Or did you just pray and grind? Every step, yeah, you braved it Even when you walked half-blind All those cheap talks, you faced it Turned that noise into a guide Now the doubt lines faded Only real ones on your side [Chorus] Did you ever think you'd make it? (make it) From the small room floor to the greatness (greatness) All those sleepless nights you faked it (faked it) Now your real life bigger than the playlist (playlist) Sweet victory, let that burn Every scar became your turn Did you ever think you'd make it? Look around, yeah, you made it [Bridge] They said "pipe dream", I laid pipelines Ran hope through the dirt, made a lifeline Every "sit down" turned to "stand tall" Had to lose face just to face it all Now the same old fear tryna call my phone I just let it ring out while I claim this throne 'Cause the work been done, and the dues got paid I don't owe nobody for the moves I made (nah) [Chorus] Did you ever think you'd make it? (make it) Now your name ring loud in the basements (basements) All those sleepless nights you faked it (faked it) Turned a long shot dream to a statement (statement) Sweet victory, let it run Through your chest like rising sun Did you ever think you'd make it? Say it proud: yeah, I made it (I made it)
