Make It Out

Started this at 14
A young kid with a dream
I was hella naive
Had a team that believed

I never wanna let my fam down
That's why I go all out
I gotta rep my hometown
Even though I'm glad I made it out

Coulda took a different route
Could a had kid but that's something I don't talk about
Got too many broken relationships
That ended because of my decisions

I'm an emotional wreck
Put a gun to my head
If I would've pulled the trigger
Man I would've been dead

Shoutout to my best friend for holding me down
Told him since day one if I blow
Then I'm getting you out
Buy your parents a house

I got too many promises
I don't wanna let em down
I found myself in a drought
Started counting all my blessing

Got a few in the sky
Wish I could see the man again
Who fucking changed my life
Lost a great one that night

It still plays in my mind
Wish I could see him one more time
I know he's looking down from the sky
Probably don't want me to cry

So I stay on my grind
I gotta go and live life
I hope I'm doing this right
Yeah

This is for the ones who never made it out
This is for the ones who wanna make it out
This is for the ones who never made it out
This is for the ones who wanna make it out

You don't know what I've been through
Still throwing hate
I'm gonna show you
What I have inside

Welcome to my fucked mind
I hope you have a hella of a time
I don't sleep much at night
I close my eyes and the pressure rises

Their minds are blurred
So they don't recognize it
Might wear a smile
But they don't see behind it

Only see the surface
They're getting nervous
Cause I'm talking now
About how I'm hurting

Stopped blaming them
Time to move on
This might sound sad
But I'm way beyond

I've stayed silent for way too long
I'm spilling on heart on these fucking songs
I don't care if we never get along
Get to know me first

Before you write my wrongs, yeah

Why don't you get to know me first
Before you write my wrongs
Why don't you get to know me first
Before you write my wrongs
