Sunset drive, feeling alright
Got a couple J's rolled up, let's get high
Turn the afternoon into a late night space ride
The old me can stay in them dumps, I'm finna stay high
Drive slow homie, drive slow homie
Bumping Kanye yeah that's what the big bro told me
By the way I'm finally graduating and I'm finna make mills for me, you can't steal from me
Man I'm feeling so superior and feeling myself
But I used to feel inferior and killing myself
Was the only way I saw to get rid of myself
And my self worth was that equivalent to my wealth
I was broke as fuck thinking I'd do nothing but fail
But I battled all my demons and I sent them to hell
Smoking on the devil's lettuce, gotta prevail
Imma make a million dollars and I'll make it myself
Cause nobody makes it where I'm from motherfucker
Cause all we do is talk shit and hate on one another
They don't want you at the top man they rather see you under
Man they rather see you under
I been so slept on for the last couple years
Cause it's so fucking hard to get respect from my peers
Cause all them fuckers do is put some trash in their ears
I guess I'm not that ATL so why the fuck am I here?
Sometimes I have nightmares and wake up with anxiety
Therefore it's hard to dream when I have these thoughts inside of me
This odyssey is odd to see but something that I ought to see
You couldn't take my heart, you'd have to fight through every artery
Yeah, man I'm glad to be alive
I know I'm the bee's knees but I stay in my hive
Cause I'm just a cage bird who is ready to fly
I was always taught do, so what the fuck is a try?
I just wanted to be special, not no regular guy
While you moping on the floor I'm busy touching the sky
I got sick of every day shit, I was living a lie
Avoiding all that bullshit I'll never give it the time
I'm just doing me, who are you?
You don't know about the things I'm going through
And I don't know about the things you going through
What I'm going through? Let me show you, show you
Growing up, broke as fuck, still don't think I know enough
About the world, and all my friends are asking when I'm blowing up
But sure enough, they'll disappear and reappear when all the money's showing up, is you joking bruh? Ugh
Fuck em, I just wanna pay my momma rent and get by
With my homies and my lady, having good times
It's simple as that for your simple ass
Maybe I could make enough to barely make us middle class
Yeah, I know I made my mom a lot of promises
Imma make sure that I make my momma problemless
When she chilling having a drink
At her hillside house, momma what do you think?
Man you raised a rare breed, and we almost extinct
In this world it's sink or swim and I ain't planning on to sink, motherfucker
Yeah, she raised me in a home with a hard working family
World keep tryna fuck me but I maintain chastity
Better pay attention this is actually happening
Legend in the making ain't nobody else passing me, ain't nobody else passing me
How'd that super shy guy get a super fly ride?
Aye aye, looking out for booty like hindsight
Send a message to the world, tell them this is my time
Chilling getting faded, riding out in the nighttime
[Hook]
I just need a reason
One to keep breathing now
Tell me when you leaving
You're only here for the season now
Baby this is my kingdom
We ain't committing no treason now
That's why I'm always chiefin
Cause can't nobody keep me down
I finally got a reason
I wanna keep breathing now
Tell me when you leaving
You're only here for the season now
