(Uh, uh)
(Woah, uh, uh)
{Yeah, yeah}
(Uh, uh, yeah)
(Oh, oh, oh)
(Woah, oh, oh)
(Yeah, yeah, oh)

{Chorus}
When I look back on my past
I realize that I've been through a lot
I had traumatizing experiences
Lost a lotta people in my life
RIP to my Uncle Souleymane, Mama Madou & Papa Pierre
Y'all were so innocent & kind-hearted
I know y'all looking down on me and my family
And I know even though y'all not here, y'all will always be proud of me
(Cuz I know I got a great legacy ahead of me)

{Verse 1}
But for now, I'mma focus on the future
I survived that trauma & misery
Stupid family dramas, f*ck love & divorce
I'll still remember your good deeds
You were just tryna help the family
I experienced abandonment of my father
And the yelling & screaming from my mother
The expectations I had to carry for being the number one son
I just wish that I lived a better life than whatever that traumatized me
Too much heartbreak & losses that I had to grieve
I was a youngin' back then
Didn't know why I went through that shit
My cousins told me, "You gonna make it big"
I'mma tryna achieve my goals
Through hard work & determination
I'm risin' to the top cuz of my dedication
{Chorus}
When I look back on my past
I realize that I've been through a lot
I had traumatizing experiences
Lost a lotta people in my life
RIP to my uncle Souleymane, Mama Madou & Papa Pierre
Y'all were so innocent & kind-hearted
I know y'all looking down on me and my family
And I know even though y'all not here, y'all will always be proud of me
(Cuz I know I got a great legacy ahead of me)

{Verse 2}
Too much losses & heartbreak that I had to face
I wanna find my peace of mind
Looking back on my past
Tryna make friends, and not be a outcast
I gained and lost friends
But I still miss my old friends & my old life
Things happen for a reason
I gotta embrace my past
Some days I feel good, and for other days I feel bad
And I just want some space to think things through
Stuck in the blues
Nobody know what I been through
So think 'fore you try to walk a mile in my shoes
I had a lot of good & bad luck
Y'all will always be in my heart forever
I think of you every time
{Chorus}
When I look back on my past
I realize that I've been through a lot
I had traumatizing experiences
Lost a lotta people in my life
RIP to my Uncle Souleymane, Mama Madou & Papa Pierre
Y'all were so innocent & kind-hearted
I know y'all looking down on me and my family
And I know even though y'all not here, y'all will always be proud of me
(Cuz I know I got a great legacy ahead of me)
