lyrics:

Immigrant community 

You can’t be a musician 

They think artistry is a waste of ambition 

Not respected 

Starving

Reckless 

My family pulled out stats 

Saying your good 

but look at the facts 

Look at the facts

I Can’t say

Iit didn’t get to me 

Millions try 

hard victory 


Survivors guilt 

I went to  uni

Split me time 

Fell off musically 

Just knowing 

That’s not me 

It’s in me 

Scholarly  

Literally 

Friends said 

I’d make history 


Been tryna make it 

Since those days 

In the basement 

& long nights 

Alone 

At my computer 

Mixing writing 

Making things cooler 

cooler

No hand outs 

putting work 

 

say this now 

No manifestation 

Hate that saying 

because I’m blessed 

Keep my faith 

Prayers up 

To all of the doubters 

Chick called it a hobby

left her in the lobby 

Leg up 

money 

Coming sooner

Not say much  

Cause I don’t network 

Put me friend on 

Cause that’s my net worth 


Independent 

Mixing 

Writing 

Making Things Cooler 

When I win 

I’ll thank my family

When I win

I’ll thank my doubters 

When I win 

I’ll thank the chick 

In the lobby
