Been going through it lately
Life been hitting me hard left and right
Caught a clean uppercut that came from way down below the other day
Hit me right in the chin, but I took it like a man and kept it pushing
Had people watching me, looking over my shoulders, so I had to reevaluate some things
Rearrange my priorities, that's just how it is sometimes, I mean, that's life right
Even if I gave my eyes to Stevie, I still wouldn't wonder who watching me
Life been hitting me so hard lately, sometimes I wonder how I can even see
Doing my best to stay on the right path, but sometimes my dreams don't turn into reality
I wonder if you can imagine how hard that can be
Living in a movie, trying to find out what my genre is
He did a hell of a job, but I'm trying to better than my father did
Lights camera action gotta make it worth the while before my movie end
I got the starring roll, and I swear I'm executing it
The people ain't believing me, be the ones speaking on my name
Young black man so successful, I swear it's all getting to their brain
I'm elevating reaching higher levels and I swear that it will never change
Yeah, I'm not a president, but I'm rocking presidentials
Real diamonds around my neck, and I got all the credentials
I mean, I got all the papers, and they authentic
Yeah
You see, some people come around, they just wanna tear you down
It's cause they got something else going on in their life
Projecting their insecurities in their action cause they don't know how to make what you got go on work for themselves
But they fail to realize the work that you put in to make it there
So they come around and try to mess up what you got going
Sometimes you gotta stay to yourself
Got to the point I almost went to therapy the other day
Just trying to wrap my brain around all the hostility towards me
I'm almost at the point where my family are the only people who allow to call my phone
In fact, there's no reason to leave a message cause I not even gonna listen to what you got to say after the tone
...........
I just rather vibe alone
