Make It Through

You see I tell em' I'm the greatest
Without cracking a smile
I see very few souls
That match how I move the crowd
I speak my peace and spread the love
And understand why I'm present
To make a story that the reverends
Use to profit off peasants
They call me God, next up
You the one, make a change
They put this pressure on brain
And say you asked for this fame
They say the run is far from done
The story has just been begun
You start as your mothers son
Then light the world with your puns
You have a message
You have a purpose
You saved my life
Back when I was feeling worthless
You give me too much credit
I can't even take it
Said I was sent to change this place
Was he mistaken
So many stories to tell
So many things I should prove
So many people doubt me
So many mountains to move
Got world on my shoulders
It doesn't stop me from climbing
I never fold under pressure
I just come out as a diamond

Tell me everything that's on your mind, I
Tell you everything that's on mine too, we
Run together like Bonnie Clyde, but still
We can't seem to make it all the way through
Tell me everything that's on your mind, I
Tell you everything that's on mine too, we
Run together like Bonnie Clyde, but still
We can't seem to make it all the way through

I'm from a small town
LA got me missing the burbs
But tell me why your favorite rapper
Still ain't living off words
Tell me why I'm 9 to 5
Then 5 to 9 never sleeping
While these people dropping verses
I would never be keeping
It's all timing and perception
And perception is fable
I'm just a dollar, nothing more
To people watching from labels
I pack a flow that no one knows
Will grow to pivot the game
I seen like 40 years in 20
Our view is far from the same

Tell me everything that's on your mind, I
Tell you everything that's on mine too, we
Run together like Bonnie Clyde, but still
We can't seem to make it all the way through
Tell me everything that's on your mind, I
Tell you everything that's on mine too, we
Run together like Bonnie Clyde, but still
We can't seem to make it all the way through

I feel the blues, I pick and chose
Which attitudes, I'm letting loose
I got my head to my beretta
Instead of tying a noose
Old friends with ammunition
Who's the trader trying to shoot
I deserve it all I'll take it
But lord I'm not what I do
Give me a sign and a place
Give me some time and some space
Give me some words to retrace
Who I was back in the day
I got a heart and a soul
Why can't i just let it go
I got this demon on my shoulder
That I kill every show, whoa

Tell me everything that's on your mind, I
Tell you everything that's on mine too, we
Run together like Bonnie Clyde, but still
We can't seem to make it all the way through
Tell me everything that's on your mind, I
Tell you everything that's on mine too, we
Run together like Bonnie Clyde, but still
We can't seem to make it all the way through
