Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 I remember sleepin’ on a mattress on the floor Hearin’ arguments I couldn’t ignore Mama cryin’ through a closed bedroom door Swore to God I’d give her somethin’ more Used to ride with the gas on E Tryna make it to a place I’d be Now the tank stay full, but it’s still that kid Inside me askin’ what this life really is They ain’t see all the nights I prayed All the doubt that I hid away All the times I almost gave up But somethin’ in me just wouldn’t break Pre-Chorus Now they see me shine, they don’t know the cost Every win got built from a loss Chorus And it still don’t feel real, I swear All this money, all this air I was down, now I’m way up here But I still got pain I carry Still don’t feel real sometimes Look around like this life mine? I got everything I said I’d get But I ain’t feel finished yet Verse 2 I done seen friends turn strangers quick Over money, over petty things Had to cut ties just to grow myself Now my circle small but it’s everything I don’t trust what they say, I watch what they do Energy fake, I can see right through They wasn’t there when the nights got cold Now they act like they always knew I remember days I ain’t eat much Now it’s steak dinners, but I don’t rush Still got habits from bein’ broke Like savin’ everything I touch Bridge If it all fall down, I rebuild again I done been through worse, I’ll win again Every scar got a lesson learned Every loss got a blessing in Verse 3 I ain’t perfect, I still got flaws Still got nights where I fight my thoughts Still got ghosts from a past life Still got dreams I ain’t chased enough But I’m closer than I ever been And I’m stronger than I ever was If you knew what it took to stand You would never question what I’ve done Final Chorus (Extended) And it still don’t feel real, I swear All this money, all this air I was down, now I’m way up here But I still got pain I carry Still don’t feel real sometimes Look around like this life mine? I got everything I said I’d get But I ain’t feel finished yet
