[Verse 1] (Yeah, storytime) I almost got stabbed in the parking lot at Shell Tryna cop some pills, I had a hundred dollar bill Peeped the product in the bag, I could tell it wasn't real Then he reached with his hand, but he missed the steering wheel Life flashed before my eyes, tryna put the car in drive Thought he had a gun on him, but he switched and pulled a knife Wish a motherfucker would try and cut the ice 'Cause when the getting get going, I'm really afraid to die This is plain in my mind, ten seconds have passed by Backed all the way out, and I could somewhat see the light I ain't gon' lie, I cried the whole way home How'd I get so far from all the places that I was going? [Chorus] Sometimes it's so hard to see the light Sometimes it's so hard to get by Sometimes it's so hard to see the light Sometimes it's so hard to get by [Verse 2] A few weeks later I OD'd, staring at the walls in my room Thinking if I died tonight, would I be gone too soon? I never really thought I'd make it past 25 So 26 a testament to me being alive Through the pressure out of my control, feel like I'm getting old Feel like the world changing, don't wanna sell my soul Don't wanna live for fame, don't want the money either Tryna go down in history and that's a funny thing 'Cause when shit hits the fan, nobody next to you They not expecting you to do some shit that they could do These days I know I'm more than just a man Talking to God to show me who I really am [Chorus] Sometimes it's so hard to see the light Sometimes it's so hard to get by Sometimes it's so hard to see the light Sometimes it's so hard to get by Sometimes it's so hard to see the light Sometimes it's so hard to get by Sometimes it's so hard to see the light Sometimes it's so hard to get by
