You're Doing Great

It's been a minute you've been add it for years
You went through so many bumps but yet still managed to steer
You had the right mind, real focused on your dreams and didn't stop
You lost a good amount of people, but never lost what you felt
What the feeling was to make music and the time you spent
Alone in your room, the safest place to vent
Living your teenage years with only paper and pen
Where the music became the path you're more happy in
And I'm glad you did
You changed the life for both of us
Younger me paved the way for older me so I'll adjust
Because time was all you had, and you spent it right
Shit life would've been so different if you didn't write

There's still a lot to do but I'm proud of you
Coming in the game not knowing where to go
No role models around with you
Your parents separated so you had to grow
Momma doing her best to support your dreams, at the same time bills are overdue
So you stayed focused and stayed on your grind
You wanted different, wanted to live a better life not stay behind
And you went for it
A lotta people did not rock with you
At first you felt a sadden feeling
But then got real comfortable

But here's a part for my future self, you're doing great remember that, don't doubt yourself again
Younger you was, able to keep going when things were tough
He managed to work with no one involved, and now you got some love
From the music scene, you met some dope ass people along
People with ambition, people who know what they what before they're gone
I'm excited to see where I will head too, but time will tell
At the moment I'm evolving learning new shit as I sail

Lil Red you won't believe the shit you've seen because of music
You also dj as your job and that's some cool shit
You work with homies, we the bosses we the new kids
Coming from nothing, breaking branches, start a new tree
