More Than Music II

Yo Denton, you coming?
Yeah bro I'm coming
You coming to Brian's tonight?
A-Ah, I dunno man we'll see
You're going to the studio again aren't you?
Yeah I might record a couple of songs
Alright, you're missing out
There's always another one man, I'll come next time
You realize you say that every single time?
Yeah I'll see you Monday

Used to drive past my highschool
On my way home from work
Had a factory job
Where no one ever factored in my worth
Didn't feel I had a purpose
I was only going through the motions
Growing up, thought that I'd be more
Everyday follow those emotions
Just some kind of drop out I ain't got nothing to lose
Every weekend I'd be lost inside the booze
Every weekend there was never nothing new
Same time every Monday hittin' snooze, no
You don't wanna be that guy
Lettin' life pass you by
I'd sit in my room and just cry
People just laughed at my music
Used to tell me I was stupid
Playing my songs at the party only as a joke for the amusement
I stayed focus keepin' my music first
Lost a lot of friends, honestly it hurt
Now this year I'm the one laughin'
Cause I'm triple all their fuckin' networths
Never let that change who I am
Got a long way to go, I'll be stayin' humble
Not like half these rap songs where they mumble
Every song a piece of me I never crumble
Every song is real, coming from the heart
Never change, same kid from the start
Been through so much past few years
With my fanbase, only right with charts
Team finally rising, reach multiplying
I spent every last dollar on the music
Tryna make a change, in a world of pain
Please, don't you ever confuse it
Messages from fans "say they wanna die"
I spend all night writin' back replies
Tryna be a human, most of these rappers don't
All they see is fucking money in they eyes
Don't care what anybody think of me
They know nothing more than my name
Share my whole life inside
Every song I put, everything I had on the plate
I put everything I have into this
This is more than just some rap song
This the only way that lately I cope
This the only way that I get along
Pure passion, I turn my thoughts into action
I'm gonna make something lasting
I will never fall for the lies they masking
Or the criticism they casting
After my struggle never thought I'd be here
I've done shed so many of my tears
Now I work in a studio
With my all friends and we're drinkin' our beer
I give everything to make it, I ain't play around
Sinking every single moment in the sound
This called dedication, I don't tween fake it
If you want it, you gon' have to come and take it
Started off, I could barely buy a meal
These days I'm gettin' offered record deals
That's a story that nobody else can steal
That's a story that nobody else can steal, no

I finally know who I am
Took some dark times to find a place where I stand, yeah
For all the times I was losing
Guess it help me make something much more than music
More than, music
