I've seen some better days

I went through many ways

Stressing through my life, though I'm getting paid

I'm on my schooling journey, hoping that I'm making waves

I'm tryna graduate, removing stress, I'm breaking chains

Starting off in '21, I caught up with a lot of drama

When I enter in the lounge, it came up with a lot of problems

I went MIA to focus on my goal so I ain't stalling

So I went in, I went out, I never showed my face to make a dollar

I made friends, but I ain't really see them outside of the building

Juggling my life so I can keep up my living

It's hard to make time to really hone in on my artistry

On top of work and the school work in my mind it be killing it

Tryna keep momentum but my mental really fucking me

Just lost my family member so they call to see what's up with me

I'm losing out on lots of sleep but this shit really pumping me

I'm draining all my energy, a vampire really sucking me

I stay up endless nights

So I can pay the price

Retain my GPA, so my future hella bright

Balancing my life though it be adding hella spice

I ain't dressing Gothic though I'm feeling like a Knight

Running through my obstacles I'm watching how I move

Managing priorities so I don't gotta lose

I'm a couple steps ahead of reaching all my goals

Bout to get my bachelors, this chapter bout to close

Running through my obstacles I'm watching how I move

Managing priorities so I don't gotta lose

I'm a couple steps ahead of reaching all my goals

Bout to get my bachelors, this chapter bout to close

Chasing this dream when I step in the stu

Why would I stop when I'm setting this tune?

That day will come that I get on YouTube with this story of mine, it is spreading the news

Even on days when I'm tired and sleepy to get out of bed to go grind and repeat

Still not gon' stop, even while I be balancing paying bills, clocking in, writing to beats

All of the stress and the headaches inside

It done came from the moments in need of some guidance

How to be proper when I'm overthinking my

Past and my future, not struggle in silence

If you are someone in need of advice at a time for your mind to be right for your health

Prioritize what is harder to do for a better comfort and a great future self

Like it was yesterday, started this journey, my heart sparked

Wake up early mornings, stood up late nights to take this art far

My peers around me were the first ones I done showed this talent to

That was back in 2012, my start of planning how to move

First time I recorded was the "Ten Toes Challenge" off my phone

Laptop on my bed, two pillows in between for studio foam

2019 was when I dropped my first music video

2020, COVID happened, learned on how to mix, record

2023 was a wild year

Performing 2 to 5 times every week

While balancing a part time job now

Saving up what I can to go up now

Step out the house and go get this far

Figuring out who my real friends are

PATH Train and Subways to show my art

Open mics always igniting my spark

That same year was my first taste of adulthood when I moved out

Fast forward 1 year and a half later, who would've thought I knew now

How to balance my passion, and responsibilies out my comfort zone

Manifesting every move that I make will get me closer to the life I chose
