Yourself

If you're in the process of building you
Are you not you that's part of the progress
Let that digest in your mind for a minute
You are always you but you wanna improve
Let me dissect that rhyme for a minute
It's all part of the journey but you wanna be who
You gotta be you
Part of the journey is showing them who you are
So they understand if you're a man women or neither
Don't matter it's part of the plan you're a shooting star
So either you choose to just introduce yourself
Or put on that mask and use yourself to be less than your human self
Always choose to just mute yourself
Like you ain't got ideas you need the right ears
Fam I used to fight tears felt less than me like I took the ride here
But nah I took my mind here now my minds clear
Now I sit on the surface I'm right here
I'm not saying I don't fight fear been doing it
For my whole life here and that's twenty five years never getting right years
Never getting it right
If you're upset with others don't be
Most your life you spend that lonely
Some don't respect that bro if only
I truly get that so do my homies
I try not to burden them or need them to hold me
Cause I need to cope g be good in my head at night before I go sleep
And fam it's so hard
See I know it can get so hard at times
Yeah it feels like one step forward two steps back as this path unwinds
But that's just our design
You've gotta force that positive thought in your mind
And you know what I mean by force cause it don't come naturally
In fact actually you gotta find a way to do it practically
No one said it was easy no one said you can do this casually
We are who we choose to be
Not what they did to you or who you used to be
There's always a choice
You are on a wave but thinking your sinking listen just hear my voice
Hardships come but you've gotta stay poised
Focused don't get nervous push that away
There's hurdles that just get in the way
But you've gotta do that shit for yourself
Not for your Dad, Brother, Sister or Mother
Sure you can ask for their help
But you've gotta do that shit for you
Do that shit for yourself
