Where I Am (feat. Sarah Jaffe)

I didn't get where I am today By worrying about How I'll feel tomorrow I'm in a position where everything's documented And now they have the truth I will be less complimented This is from me to you You be me and I'm being you I understand your point of view But I doubt if you're comprehending A cold world— imagine livin' on both sides You're constantly gone But your family want you close by This life is made to survive, but most die I'm ridin' this wave till it's no longer a boat ride I'ma conquer feelings of those that I'm dealing with Shout outs to the people who made a choice to be killin' it Cut off a few people I was chillin' with Just to show 'em I don't need 'em and I can seal this shit This is as real as it gets Get the idea—love or quit You'll live with the pain That's only if you make life a bitch Lived through the storms without ringing the alarm I coulda easily been gone But I'm too strong Still I move about freely Though it all plays out eventually I know whatever the case is I know where my place is, I know I call them like I see them My Mama's the strongest female I ever known May's very own Played that man in that heavy tone In and out that buildin' Where some addicts had their children Watch 'em suffer while the drug dealers Roll around in that Chevy chrome Did it for us My father still kept up Unlike these deadbeats, that man never left us And I just wanna thank ya, I'll never let ya down Lil' somethin' you allowed for me to have when it was found Take over Work hard—the breaks over Feel like I was the only one that was shaped boulder Call me what you want—ya'll ain't colder Carry what's on my back – bet you break ya shoulder On the road where the traffic is involved Your drive is like a car At the end there is a star That got your name on it Frame on it Soundtrack of my life with Love and pain on it Still I move about freely Though it all plays out eventually I know whatever the case is I know where my place is, I know I call them like I see them People will talk but you will walk by You see the rain before the blue sky They all want something to believe in When they sleep, you call them like you see them Still I move about freely Though it all plays out eventually I know whatever the case is I know where my place is, I know I call them like I see them Throw your ones up in the air If you live low—dream high The way things go just don't seem right Aim for it Just aim for it, oh I sacrificed so much To get where I am And I'm here I ain't lettin' nothin' stop me I'm here Hello
