Society trying to shame if you ain't got the range like Dame or the shot like Curry
But what you worry for?
Check my verbiage, I'm too verbose
Addicting, don't overdose, telling lies, I'm over those
Like what you wordy for?
You tell the truth, they co-sign
Dap you up, then leave you hanging with a noose
You disrespect, you get it too
Stay focused on your own movie
Might go John Wick just to pull up like John Wilkes Booth
Many routes to the top, parallel path as an option
I been looking, I been searching to the point I'm exhausted
Finders keepers, I just pray I never lose it
Or maybe I never lost it
All this green, so I'm never stopping
There's no point in being fake, but you can try to fake it
I got things to do and plans in the making
Mama said the world is mine, so I guess I gotta take it
Every time that I open my eyes, I look up and see salvation's light
Every time that I open my eyes, I look up and see salvation's light
Through the day and the night, trying to right all my wrongs
Moving wrong when I'm right, get to fighting my feelings
Rarely laughing at life
Every time I close my eyes, might not sleep through the night
White runtz in your lungs, leave you stuck off a puff
No trampoline, it's in the air, off the bounce, off the jump
Heard them boys with some chumps, grab the pump and let it dump
And you know it's f*ck 12, in these bullets I'ma trust
Is that the culture teaching us
Are these role models really giving guidance out of love
Shit I promise to be a light to everything I touch
If you ain't fam or you ain't gang, it's hard to put someone above
Double down on the guys, check my return on investment
Keep your head high, am I Mike or Collin Sexton
Steadily improving and proving to 'em it's destined
Losing over and over, are you insane, learn your lesson
Preaching to the choir like a reverend
Keep your eyes on the road or meet a dead end
I grew from my past mistakes and dead sins
To chasing big dreams and big wins
Yeah, I know shit can get difficult
Shit be, life be trying you, I know
You know, but there's something I learned
It's like, you gotta live, love and learn
So you can learn to love the way you live
This for shorty who just tryna get her rent paid
This for shorty who just tryna get some new braids
This for homie who just got into an accident
This for homie, congrats on the master's kid
This for the people out there looking for a new job
This for the people who out there working two jobs
This for the people who worry about their own tomorrow
This for the people who got children and know they gon' follow
It's them long days and them long nights
But you gon' get it right, yeah, you gonna make a way
And work it day by day and take it step by step
But don't you hesitate, look
It's them long days and them long nights
But you gon' get it right, yeah, you gonna make a way
And work it day by day and take it step by step
But don't you hesitate
Every time that I open my eyes, I look up and see salvation's light
Every time that I open my eyes, I look up and see salvation's light
Through the day and the night, trying to right all my wrongs
Moving wrong when I'm right, get to fighting my feelings
Rarely laughing at life
Every time I close my eyes, might not sleep through the night
It's them long days and them long nights
But you gon' get it right, yeah, you gonna make a way
And work it day by day and take it step by step
But don't you hesitate, look
It's them long days and them long nights
But you gon' get it right, yeah, you gonna make a way
And work it day by day and take it step by step
But don't you hesitate
You know, you know what I'm saying
Like, if life was easy, everybody would be doing it
And, you know, you gotta be thankful everyday
For the fact that you're still breathing, you're still alive
You still chase your dreams
You can still do what you wanna do and better everything around you
Keep your head up
