[Intro]
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
7:27 p.m. in Minneapolis
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Takin' one step forward and ten steps back
Hopin' prayers that I sent up get sent right back
I wish it went like that, instead, we shootin' in the dark
Kids lookin' up to you 'cause they love you for who you are
So you can't fail, you can't stop now
Yeah, you the people's only hope, you know you can't back down
'Cause if you stop, they gon' follow you 'cause you all that they got
Everybody countin' on you, expectin' to make the shot
[Chorus]
What I've been through, that's my only motivation
I'm duckin' through the complications
I try to rush it, but I know it takes time and patience
All the frustrations
Tryna be a star in a world that never shine
They lookin' up to me 'cause they see I'm on my grind
I need confirmation
It'd be better if I knew
Uh-huh, yeah, yeah, look
[Verse 2]
Aye, what you know about being the only hope?
All this weight up in your boat, but you gotta keep it afloat
So you just keep writing your dope in hopes that people get addicted
Labels speak your name and they peepin' all your statistics
Yeah, but we fuck with 'em from a distance
I'd rather play my own pace than sit up on your benches
Get locked behind your fences without no way out
Give a fuck 'bout what it sound like or what they pay out, bitch
The hottest youngin' in the city, boy, you can't ignore it
I had to open up my mind, now he wanna explore it
I got him rushin' like a foreign, now he wanna floor it
I think he want me more because he know that I ain't for it
Kind of boring, but it's funny in a way
Three different incomes, I'm making money every way
Mixed chick, gifted, she gettin' money every day
And when I turn twenty-one, it'll be sunny where I stay, hey
[Chorus]
What I've been through, that's my only motivation
I'm duckin' through the complications
I try to rush it, but I know it takes time and patience
All the frustrations
Tryna be a star in a world that never shine
They lookin' up to me 'cause they see I'm on my grind
I need confirmation
It'd be better if I knew
[Outro]
What I've been through, that's my only motivation
I'm duckin' through the complications
I try to rush it, but I know it takes time and patience
All the frustrations
Tryna be a star in a world that never shine
They lookin' up to me 'cause they see I'm on my grind
I need confirmation
It'd be better if I knew
Yeah, yeah, yeah
