[Intro]
(QESTN, I don't know)

[Verse 1]
I always knew I had a dream
Dad left when I was young
My mum worked overtime so we could eat (Oh)
And I ain't lookin' for no sympathy
I'm just sayin' most the girls that I meet
Are nothin' like my mother
I was down on my feet (Down on my feet)
But I never ever knew
It was so hard to see
So next time, think twice if you wanna be me, ayy
We in the matrix
There's no favours until you're famous
I spent my savings in LA tryna make it
When I came back, a n***a really had to face it
Yo, I could bring all of my pain but who's gon' take it?
(We all been through it, the struggle's the same)
(It's just the same chaptеr of a different page)

[Chorus]
Talkin' 'bout thе things that I been through
And I know that you been through too
I been down for my n***as from day
I'ma learn 'cause I know can't lose
And I know one day, I'll find a way to make it out
I have to take a risk and say it out loud
[Verse 2]
I know what I did
I know who I've become (Oh)
I know where I came from
I know the things I love (Yeah)
Rex called me up
I said I'll go and pick her up
She jumped in the back
This n***a puttin' on a glove
And he tried takin' me like I was alien
Fuck it, if I see him again, I'm jumpin' out
If ever tell Rev, man, I bet he run him down
N***as think 'cause I'm a singer, they can treat me like a clown (Yeah)
Huh, and my n***a bussed his case now, yeah
We celebrate
I hope God opens the Heavens gates
For all the fallen soldiers and the heavyweights
I been prayin' for all my life that
This little light of mine will shine and
Call up on my shawty, she my ride or die and
Know I been waitin' for this all my life

[Chorus]
Talkin' 'bout the things that I been through
And I know that you been through too
I been down for my n***as from day
I'ma learn 'cause I know can't lose
And I know one day, I'll find a way to make it out
I have to take a risk and say it out loud
