There will be people your whole life
Trying to swim upstream
There will be people your whole life
Trying to swim upstream
There will be people your whole life
Trying to ruin your dreams
There will be people your whole life
You have got to let go
You have got to let go

(Black Milk)
Let go of the people that acted like you never mattered
Lighten your load there’s no point in holding that extra baggage
Visible miserable n***as wish you was just as damaged
N***as bring madness bring hate can turn a saint into a savage
Ain’t no advantage friends waiting on who can fall the fastest
Friends that’s established they’d rather snake you and keep backstabbing
See thats what happens when you fly messing with maggots in your lane
Moving through traffic play the game moving like magic
Be careful who you call family some like to vanish then
Show up when you start eating it’s obvious looking famished but
Shit is tragic that’s just the world that we’re given
It’s something you learn to manage this life you couldn’t imagine
I’d rather be at peace than paranoid and panic where homies showing that love
Not jealous of what you have and wanting to hold a grudge
And envious of your talent The sadness of wanted status matters
There will be people your whole life
Trying to swim upstream
There will be people your whole life
Trying to swim upstream
There will be people your whole life
Trying to ruin your dreams
There will be people your whole life
You have got to let go
You have got to let go
