Tables Turned

You know the struggle we face on a daily basis
And all of the choices we made, options running out
My brothers still running the streets, ah, without a doubt
And they act like they never made it
Everybody's in town, is still trying to find out

Thought you had my back but you deserted
And the time I took you shopping, you just spent it like you earned it

And when I rose up, I told you I would never back down
Remember when I told you I wouldn't be the one to go down
I used to doubt myself, but now I'm standing
Yeah, I held you down, but you were never there in dark times
I left the past behind, and now I'm focused on the hard times
It wasn't all me, cause part of you is part of my sound
Let's chase our dreams, we're reaching destiny
If I get lost at sea, will you be there for me
In your ocean, I'll ride the waves, now my vision's clear

I wasn't always ready, I just started
Yeah, I used to sleep on office sofas
I only ate a burger with the cola
Only once a day with dirty soda

But now the tables turned
Even all my people couldn't help, they weren't sure
Focused on myself, I made it out, without a burden
I had to make a call, knowing it wasn't even certain

And now that the story is televised
We can finally enter legacy
In the form of ecstasy and poetry
Our hearts resonate in harmony
In realms where dreams are intensified
We still get lost in verses and still satisfied
Our spirits go way beyond this world, we're immortalized
Breathing life into our prophecy
Crafting our destiny publicly with no privacy
