How It Goes

Sometimes things don't go how you want 'em to go

And you don't feel how you wanted to feel

But you still move along

The world is gon' keep moving on

And I know

Remember when life was so easy

Rhyming in cars, writing bars

All I wanted was to be me

Watching stars going hard

Started out, no one believed me

Never thought I'd make it far

Negative energy feeds me

Turned myself into a boss

Knew that I'd find a way

Never been thinking about the pay

Can't let potential go to waste

I had to starve to get a taste

Never know what you can do 'til you try it

Sharing my story, now people buy it

On a commercial, but I stay private

Aim for the clouds, I feel like a pilot now

Sometimes things don't go how you want 'em to go

And you don't feel how you wanted to feel

But you still move along

The world is gon' keep moving on

And I know

I know just how it goes

The truth ain't always told

I'm keepin' on the low

It's coming soon, I know

Yeah, they don't see life in my lens

They just see trends; I wanna know when it ends

People been telling me wrong

Telling me I shouldn't make any songs

But they be stuck in a regular life

Complain in the week and waiting for weekends

Everyone looking around for the wife

I just been making sure I'm good in the end

Never gon' depend

I really want it myself, tryna get all of the wealth

I'm not concerned about fun 'cause it'll come after the work is all done

I'm thinking 'bout my tomorrow, not my today, only what follows

I got the vision, I'm on a mission, I'm tryna tell all the kids, hope they listen

Sometimes things don't go how you want 'em to go

And you don't feel how you wanted to feel

But you still move along

The world is gon' keep moving on

And I know

I know just how it goes

The truth ain't always told

I'm keepin' on the low

It's coming soon, I know
