Commitment

I made a commitment to myself
I was kid, I was like 12
I sat alone in my room, in the dark
Something told me, listen, right now

You can do anything, you put your mind to
Envision success, it'll find you
You don't believe in the law of attraction?
Listen to me, this is vital

And everything I'm telling you, right now, is primal
If you wanna get technical, then I reckon you should find you
Fuck it, I don't wanna explain myself
To somebody that'll never get it, on the Bible

I'm working every job that I can, just so I can record at the studio
Fuck anybody, that doesn't believe in me
Yeah, but I'll still let you say that you knew me, though
I'm doing this for my 10-year reunion, dawg

Fuck everybody, that booed me
I'm pulling up in a new Lamborghini
My life used to suck, now my life's like a movie
I bet your wife wants to do me
Tell me, why they fuck, you're assuming
'Cause, I can be anything that I wanna be
And ain't nobody takin' that away, unless you shoot me

I made a commitment to myself
When I was just a kid, I knew that I would need some help
So I talked with the universe, it told me they could help
They said, they'd get me sales
But if they really helped, then why the hell am I by myself?

I made a commitment to myself
When I was just a kid, I knew that I would need some help
So I talked with the universe, it told me they could help
They said, they'd get me sales
But if they really helped, then why the hell am I by myself?

Imagine everybody, thinkin' you were useless
And they said, that I was stupid
'Cause I was skippin' school, just so I could write new shit
But when I was alone, I found a friend, inside the music

It's me and my pen, me and my friend
I don't need to see a therapist, to get in my head
Fuck, you mean, I committed to the music
Now, I vent all of my pain, while I'm getting my break

'Cause, all my fans are supportin' me
So I keep it honest, when I hold the beat
I told the devil, it was more to me
But he don't understand, and he's ignorin' me

I said, I feel the pain, I feel the pain
Had a fucking pussy, go and steal my name
I see my bridge is burned, but I could build, again
Instead of crying 'bout it, like a kid in vain
And that's real

I made a commitment to myself
When I was just a kid, I knew that I would need some help
So I talked with the universe, it told me they could help
They said, they'd get me sales
But if they really helped, then why the hell am I by myself?

I made a commitment to myself
When I was just a kid, I knew that I would need some help
So I talked with the universe, it told me they could help
They said, they'd get me sales
But if they really helped, then why the hell am I by myself?

I never knew, that you'd ever be here
I never knew, that you'd ever be gone
Why ain't you tell me, you different than me?
Why ain't you tell me, that we ain't the norm?
We can survive the eye of the storm!
Fuck anybody, that isn't important
And if they a hater, you know, we ignore em'
I made a commitment to myself!
I never knew, that you'd ever be here
I never knew, that you'd ever be gone
Why ain't you tell me, you different than me?
Why ain't you tell me, that we ain't the norm?
We can survive, the eye of the storm
Fuck anybody, that isn't important
If they a hater, you know, we ignore em'

I made a commitment to myself
When I was just a kid, I knew that I would need some help
So I talked with the universe, it told me they could help
They said, they'd get me sales
But if they really helped, then why the hell am I by myself?

I made a commitment to myself
When I was just a kid, I knew that I would need some help
So I talked with the universe, it told me they could help
They said, they'd get me sales
But if they really helped, then why the hell am I by myself?
