This Far Lyrics by John Skeete

Elements

2020

[Hook]
Do you remember when I’d say I’d be a star? (Arrrrre)
Are you proud that I made it this far? (IIIIII)
Earned my stripes you can see it in the scars (Arrrrre)
Are you proud that I made it this far? (oooooo)
[Verse]
Without you my life would be so tangled
Without you my heart would be so mangled
Without you I’d be broken like some ankles
I’m so thankful, so very very grateful
See you showed me happiness without a bankroll
You continued to hold on and never let go
See we weren’t ever rich but I’m on my way! tho
Can’t wait till I’m paid cuz then everything will change oh!
[Hook]
Do you remember when I’d say I’d be a star? (Arrrrre)
Are you proud that I made it this far? (IIIIII)
Earned my stripes you can see it in the scars (Arrrrre)
Are you proud that I made it this far? (oooooo)
[Verse]
I was down
But the thought of you picked me up!
You was there for me, before I was for myself
Ain’t have no bread, had to leaven up some wealth
Thank you for taking care of me when I lacked the health
You kept speaking greatness into my life
Told me I’m a have to be the best for my wife
Until then I’m a have to fight the good fight
I’m a lefty but I gotta live this life right
[Hook]
Do you remember when I’d say I’d be a star? (Arrrrre)
Are you proud that I made it this far? (IIIIII)
Earned my stripes you can see it in the scars (Arrrrre)
Are you proud that I made it this far? (oooooo)
