Summer's over
It's bout to be a cold winter
Still go hard in the off season
Coming for wins like a sprinter
The thought of failure gets under my skin like a splinter
The competition all copy one rapper like they came out the same printer
I eat em for dinner
They don't want it with me
Focusing on betrayal will cost you
But karma is free
I live by the principal that everything comes at God's speed
Always been the one to help out a friend in need
I got you if you got me
And I got you
I'm a proud Minnesotan
Casting out wishes in the ocean
I'm just tryna chase my dreams but doors keep on closing
For this talent I was chosen
But right now I'm the only one that knows it
If I quit would they notice
And I'm still the same me but I'm not like before
People grow and things change they can't hurt me no more
There's a lot of things in my past that I haven't addressed
The root of my trauma that left me depressed
I bottled it up and then I buried the rest
If I open old wounds, I'm afraid they won't heal
Then I'm left with the mess
We're all human
Or at least I'm assuming
I go in the booth and let it out cuz pain can be consuming
It's hard to know who really cares or if they just find it amusing
They laugh at this dream I been pursuing
If you not with it just keep it moving
All I ever wanted was to be heard so I put my all into it
Started making music to connect cuz we all been through it
Let em know they're not alone
I'll use my influence
To inspire and spark some change
I know we can do it
Tryna spread a positive message
For times when it gets hectic
I'm not what they expected
But they should still respect it
Older and wiser
Looking at life with a new perspective
I been having an identity crisis cuz for my race I lack the melanin
So they question my genetics and it's pathetic
I was raised to kill em with kindness
Always respond with love to ignorant blindness
Shine love on the darkness in a world that's divided
Uh
I'm black, white, and I'm proud no denying
Under pressure
I always come out shining like diamonds
There's no mountain I won't face head on
No matter what, I keep climbing
No matter how high, if I fall I keep trying
I won't quit even if I slip
I'll catch my grip no sliding
I'ma make my mark
You just mark my words
To achieve your dreams
You gotta start one first
I'ma make my mark
You just mark my words
To achieve your dreams
You gotta start one first
