Carry on
Though it may be hard to understand it
You got to carry on
Carry on
Though it may be hard to understand it
You got to carry on
My flow so cold, you notice it
My dreams unfold, behold the shit
Had my life rearranged, it’s strange as shit
Not the same as before, I changed a bit
How you leave your son all alone?
See you every other month
Can you hit a nigga phone?
Mama can’t believe you let that nigga
Turn you from ya home
You ain’t even who you used to be
The person that I've known
Guess I have to carry on
Carry on
Though it may be hard to understand it
You got to carry on
Carry on
Though it may be hard to understand it
You got to carry on
My flow so cold, you notice it
My dreams unfold, behold the shit
Had my life rearranged, it’s strange as shit
Not the same as before, I changed a bit
Worry 'bout my health
Bad thoughts, when I’m gonna die?
I like to get high 'cause it distract me when I wonder why
'Fore my grandma died, I wen' I wen' by her side
Knew that she way dying
Didn’t put my selfish shit aside
Carry on
Though it may be hard to understand it
You got to carry on
Carry on
Though it may be hard to understand it
You got to carry on
My grandma died, I shed some tears
My mama lied, she left me here
I keep secrets, can’t tell a soul
Trust me and myself, that’s all I know
My family split, can’t live like this
No reunion shit, just who that is
I just pretend it’s all ok
I'ma kill everything that’s in my way
My flow so cold, I must admit
My dreams unfold, behold this shit
Had my life rearranged, it’s strange as shit
Not the same as before, I changed a bit
Carry on
Though it may be hard to understand it
You got to carry on
Carry on
Though it may be hard to understand it
You got to carry on
