I feel this pressure been buildin' up

Yeah, I feel it in my bones

I feel the weight of every choice I'm makin' when it's set in stone

I wanna leave a mark, and show 'em that I'm comin' from the heart

This is everything I have and I'm still chasin' down the spark

Yeah, that hunger back when I was fifteen

Music was my only way out and nobody did believe

But I knew I had to show 'em, leave 'em all in disbelief

Up until this there's no denyin' everything that I've achieved

So I'm saying like

I am not somebody you can plot against

Every move you make against me, I will make the opposite

I'll be turning all of their opinions into compliments

Never had the confidence

But now I steppin' up, I'm shinin' light on your incompetence

I am not one of these rappers that in five years will not matter

I will not leave at the chatter, I'm dictating every conversation

This ain't an album, it's just practicing dedication

Yeah, it's finally workin' out

Makin' all these different sounds

Tearin' down my heart on every page, it's time I let it out

Used to be so scared to be this specific, but if I don't give in

Then nobody would ever listen

It's my fate, so I'ma take it to my grave

What you want written on your gravestone?

Were you great, were you fake, were you never known?

Did you leave a legacy or did you follow every trend?

Would you let some people hate you? Or do you try to make amends?

Were you great, were you fake, were you never known?

Did you leave a legacy or did you follow every trend?

Would you let some people hate you? Or do you try to make amends?

Mood swings, anxiety is up and down, makes it hard to ever do things

Cracks in my skull made me scared of my health not improving

Death on my shoulder and it affects the way I view things

If I die this better be the best stuff I'm producing

So I'm filling notebooks stuffed full of songs that made me cry

It's full of songs about my life and full of songs, I tell no lies

Locked myself in the studio, swear that I been so exhausted

Sometimes I wanna stop this

But I couldn't stop if I wanted

You know I'm just being honest

Every time I try to take a break I just end up back on it

I'm obsessed with droppin' everything around me just to make it right

Give it all my time, yeah but I'm still never satisfied

Quality over quantity, yeah that's why I barely drop

That's the reason when I'm back again my numbers never flop

Always work behind the scenes, you know my ethic never stop

If I'm not pouring out my heart, I'll never drop another song

I'm giving this everything I have to give

My legacy ain't no lacking this

The remedy for the sadder kids

Eternity is how I'm tracking this

A eulogy for all the scrutiny that I been under and what they assume on me

Ain't no more truancy, I'm on the shooting spree

Showin' the world that I'll be great, yeah
