These Days Lyrics by MiQ

Sonder: Chapter 1

2016

Verse 1

When I was just a little boy, I used to picture all of this, where would I be, what would I be, role model for all the kids, karma kicked me in the face when I was a dick, lookin back on it, how the hell did I almost call it quits

Was I stupid, couldn't see the blessing that I had, the skill to take all the hurt and throw it on a pad, and throw it on a verse, no rehearse, it's been my life for you to see, its new to me, the future's lookin oh so darn beautifully

I won't lie, I was damn near suicidal, don't know where I would be if my friends didn't check my vitals, every day, how you doin' Mike, I hope you don't be stupid Mike, you gotta lot to live for, release it all into the mic

Take a breath, take a second, I know it hurts a little more than you expected, I know it gets worse when you look and you ain't got no weapon, seems like you're left helpless, all alone in this armageddon

I know it hurts, I felt it, it ain't pleasant, but fight through the battle, and you can be a legend

Chorus

You could be
You could be
You could be
A legend
You could be
You could be
You could be
A legend
You will be
You will be
You will be
A legend (boy)
And they'll remember you forever

Verse 2

These days I live my life as the legend I'm supposed to be, you don't needa read the history books, I'm right here ferociously pickin off these beats, s'why I keep that pen close to me, learned to do this shit on my own, no one was coaching me

Ain't no more demons approachin me, they scared of me, good, done tearin' my hair out, I'm pullin' up my hood, and I'm takin' out that mic that they passed me, do what I do best and I live these days happy

I live these days happy, ywanna hear my story, I'll tell it to you gladly, then you tell me yours, the past shouldn't be squandered, we all got a story, thats the point of Sonder

I tell you all my life cause I want it out there, maybe some kid somewhere is living the same troubles I am, fightin the same demons I beat, and if he or she wants to listen to this and it helps them, then perfect, that's what it's made for, that's what it's here for, I don't want hoes and cars and all that, I only wanna be heard
