Above All Else

Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for the stuff I've done
For the stuff I'll do, for the stuff I love
For the stuff I've lost and the stuff I've won
Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for doing what I do
For the past that stays where it is
I'll forget that shit now I'm on the move

I'm not taking the piss I'm taking a trip
Far away from memory lane
With my eyes looking straight on the future
So the past stays out of my way
I don't have time to explain
So give me a second while I do my thing
And I'll get back to you when I can
If I don't then we're done and that's how I think
I won't lose sleep and I don't do stress
I'll work till the job's complete
Worry about me nah don't you sweat
I'm working I'm fine there's no stopping me honestly
Cockiness crazy but honestly lately
I'm dropping these dogs when nobody had made me
Topping these flops while they're calling me crazy
Beast mode me knows nobody has made me
Nobody except myself
That's why I don't ask for help
That's why I don't ask for handouts
I break my back for the whistles and bells
Fuck the downturn
Bite my tongue and write songs from the outbursts
If I got something and you didn't
Just know it's because you were outworked

Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for the stuff I've done
For the stuff I'll do, for the stuff I love
For the stuff I've lost and the stuff I've won
Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for doing what I do
For the past that stays where it is
I'll forget that shit now I'm on the move
Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for the stuff I've done
For the stuff I'll do, for the stuff I love
For the stuff I've lost and the stuff I've won
Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for doing what I do
For the past that stays where it is
I'll forget that shit now I'm on the move

I feel that I need to be thanking me
For the points that I banked on me
For the music I make that I'm cranking G
I love it and nearly all of that's on me
I never said that my story's unique
But I'm unique if my memory's right
It's a matter of time till I hit the big leagues
If you look at the way that I spend my life
I owe what I've got to myself
Twenty hour days didn't see anyone else
Thanks to my fam for support
I needed it when I doubted me I don't anymore
I was walking on burning bridges
Barefoot, hot coals you were turning with them
Now you're turning around cause you see where I'm at
And it's only the start of my journey, this is
It's nothing to be laughed at
You wanna come to where I was but I'm far past that
Been making progress since Sing For The Moment
Left past shit in my dust and departed
As much as I hate to be leaving here
It'll serve me better if I do
And at the end of the day I only care about me
I'll deal with me, you can deal with you

Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for the stuff I've done
For the stuff I'll do, for the stuff I love
For the stuff I've lost and the stuff I've won
Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for doing what I do
For the past that stays where it is
I'll forget that shit now I'm on the move
Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for the stuff I've done
For the stuff I'll do, for the stuff I love
For the stuff I've lost and the stuff I've won
Above all else
I'm gonna thank me for doing what I do
For the past that stays where it is
I'll forget that shit now I'm on the move
