lyrics

When I started this it weren’t a verse
In most of my tracks I want to curse
And be angry with the world

This one is different
This one is me trying to explain to yall

When I was younger in my days
I was so deterred
I wouldn’t listen
So wrapped up in my own way
That’s how It all began
That’s just exactly how you flog yourself
That’s how the shit went down

Dedication start with Jay
I love you dearly
You’re my big sister
The best God ever made
Without you I’d probably be dead
Without you I’d probably be a mental case

If you wanna be somebody
Your dreams can come true
You focus on the things that help
All of us through your lifetime

So you got a dream, some kind of plan
Put into practice, make it happen
Don’t worry about the next man
That’s how you’re gonna make it
That’s how you’re gonna make yourself feel proud
Then you can scream it out

Sometimes it’s hard, sometimes it’s not
Sometimes it’s cold and lonely
Don’t let darkness take hold of your spine

Leaving you in the worst way
Leaving you to deal with it

If you wanna be somebody
Your dreams can come true
You focus on the things that help
All of us through your lifetime
