Walk With Me
I was that kid in high school who sat at the lunch table by myself Socially awkward from my jeans to my belt
To my Ralph Lauren polo, I wasn't on that yolo
I was like where do I go to my next class showin up late
Wasn't invited to parties I never got laid
Wasn't on the football team with good grades
So whats harder? Starting from the bottom?
I'm startin from the middle where nobody's watching
Where nobody got problems, but everybody just kicking it
Parents making the negatives got money, you rubbing in the money, you hustlin'
but that's the world we living in, money is just a thing to make you spin
Never had a chance when, I'm from a city in the Midwest that's more caucasin than I am
But see we all love irony
Takes the underdog from a long shot to finally making history, walk with me
I had a lotta opportunity
Opportunity to fail
Best friends moved and wait
And with the same mentality, coulda easily been added to local correctional facilities
Or worse, getting stuck in the American Dream
And finish school with nothing but loans and a degree
Degree of difficulty, highly, cause I'm walking a path thats not clearly defined in front of my feet
Walk with me
It not make sense, As far as I can see
the straight and narrow path up in front of me
No turning back
I won't turn around and leave this time
Cause I see the light
And it's the only road I know
And life hits gotta baby on the way
Rent doesn't wait for two broken cars in my driveway
Got me scratching my head for how to make some pay
So I gotta job that's above minimum wage
The only way I make music is to stay up late
wake up early to hit the phones for payday
And I promise baby we gonna make it
And one day we'll actually have a savings
Turn my dreams up
Only way to escape it
Life will trip you up with all these stressful situations
Impatience the quickest way to get wasted
So facing is, facing is
problem is the only ride I'm taking
Taking lives in me I'm breaking through walls to see who stole the next generation
You take the low road, I'll take the high road
And we'll see who's the first one to make it
Walk with me
It not make sense, As far as I can see
the straight and narrow path up in front of me
No turning back
I won't turn around and leave this time
Cause I see the light
And it's the only road I know
Walk with me
Walk with me
Walk with me
Walk with me
To my Ralph Lauren polo, I wasn't on that yolo
I was like where do I go to my next class showin up late
Wasn't invited to parties I never got laid
Wasn't on the football team with good grades
