I know, I know
That I might be better off right here, right here, alone
And I know, I know, I know
That I can’t learn to love your flaws until I love my own

Cause I became a diamond
I been pressured my whole life
Stressing my whole my life
Working toward dreams of flexing my whole life
Never second guessing, I was destined
To become a blessing my whole life, no half stepping
Man it's alright, dodging the police
And gunshots at parties that make n***as not wanna go out no nights
But we still go some more nights
It’s something about almost losing yours, give you more life
It’s something about almost losing giving you more fight
It's something about coming up short that help you reach higher heights
I remember I used to want cry at night
With dreams of sold out arenas, at open mics not getting picked
Hoping someone would just see us
But now when they hear me they pledge allegiance
Turn grown men into fetus, when it come to theses raps
And it's for good reason, I been doing this for so long now
It's innate now, man it’s second to breathing
Born premature used struggling breathing
Now I struggle demons, it's not even really a struggle
They just keep coming back after I beat them
But I think that I need them, cause they
Cause they keep me on my toes
But it’s alright
Turn that bull shit off, bro
I’m not going to keep telling you

Said I'm just spilling my life
Said how I get it is a way that you was never ever living in your life
You ain't never looked someone in there eyes
And realize they might lose they life in they life
You never had a barrel between your eyes from people protecting your rights
Telling you, you don't got rights
Your fear losing your life. I fear what would happen
To people who hit my line to survive, if my voice ain't on the other side
I no longer about the other side. They say everybody has their own personal heaven
So I know that I'll be in somebody's even if I never have mine
Prioritize. And now I never have time. For things that I used to
Have you ever watched someone lose you?
Have you ever watched someone use you?
Crazy the same people claim that you changed
Say that you a new you, start to boo you
Until you realize they never ever really knew you
It’s alright

I might be better off right here, right here alone
And I know, I know, I know
That I can’t learn to love your flaws until I love my own
