Lyrics

This chapter in my life is called "Embracing my purpose" I almost died three times throughout my life 2 times by the age of 5 First time, I was choking on a piece of food, my Father did the heimlich and saved me The second time I was almost drowning and my Godfather came and saved me The third time I was almost hit by a pickup truck when I was 12 years old He was doing 60 and somehow he swerved So you can't tell me I ain't here for a reason and that reason is to inspire I got knocked up off my pivot but I'm here This time I never felt success was so near So close boy I almost shed a tear I ain't never seen nothing this clear This my level up yeah this be a better us Said we'll be in last place homie never us Cross the fam know it's pressure and you dead to us I hit rock bottom so the only way to head is up Humble beginnings make for arrogant endings When you, coming authentic and you never pretending Can't get no lower than I have, eyes stuck to the ceiling Girl I'm married to the game, I got no other dealings Overthinking, I'm just feeling that I ain't great enough Counted these Heartbreak Hundreds till I got some paper cuts I took that bloodshed, mixed with ink into the pad Mixed my losses and my pain, tell me what we have My best work, boy I studied my assignment Had a date with destiny and then we spoke about alignment Just to point me to my fate, she reconfirmed that was rhyming Now the only thing I'm doing is putting the work behind it (Uh) It's so easy to kick me when I'm down and out Wasn't at the bottom with me but you round for clout I've always been used to people that steady count me out Too ironic Heartbreak Hundreds really what I'm counting now (Uh) I got knocked up off my pivot but I'm here This time I never felt success was so near So close boy I almost shed a tear I ain't never seen nothing this clear This my level up yeah this be a better us Said we'll be in last place homie never us Cross the fam know it's pressure and you dead to us I hit rock bottom so the only way to head is up I had somebody ask me the other day, like "What's your brand?" I said "My brand? What you talking bout?" He was like "Yeah bro like, what do you want to be remembered as?" I said "Man I'm that quiet kid in the back of the class who cool with everybody You see him greet everybody The cool kid pass, I'm greeting em The fine woman that everybody want, I'm greeting em The nerd, I'm greeting em The jock, I'm greeting em But I'm quiet though Nobody really know who I am You gotta come find out for yourself Not only that, because you so quiet People don't really know until they speak to you Like, what type of person you are And I predicate myself on being that inspiration for people who Not the loudest in the room but potentially could have the most talent in the room That's what I wanna be remembered as"
