21 Lyrics by YSB Tril

HOTSHOT

2021

[Intro]
It's like four in the morning
Sittin' here, thinkin' 'bout shit
Just had to get this off my chest real quick

[Chorus]
I put a lot into this shit, I had to muscle up
Think they forgot about the kid, I had to show 'em up
Gave all I got and that's forever, still can't give enough
I miss my brother, he ain't make it to see twenty-one
It made me realize that I been stuck up in a dream
Now it's my job to see just what he couldn't see
It's crazy, time flies so fast, I'm keepin' up to speed
Being everything they told me that I couldn't be

[Verse 1]
It's kinda scary how it's movin', I can't even lie
Stayed back, waitin' patient, had to wait in line (Oh)
Yeah, I've been workin' everyday, I ain't wastin' time
'Cause I was chosen for this shit, but I still wonder why
Yeah, is it me?
Still grateful for this shit, I know who I'm 'posed to be
They be sayin' I don't miss, guess I'm a whole different breed
I'm puttin' water on my wrist while I try not to sink, sink, sink

[Pre-Chorus]
Realized one day this could all be gone
That's why I pray up everyday that I'ma make it home
I took this journey by myself, I got here by my 'lone
'Cause when I need 'em, make a call, they can't pick up the phone

[Chorus]
I put a lot into this shit, I had to muscle up
Think they forgot about the kid, I had to show 'em up
Gave all I got and that's forever, still can't give enough
I miss my brother, he ain't make it to see twenty-one
It made me realize that I been stuck up in a dream
Now it's my job to see just what he couldn't see
It's crazy, time flies so fast, I'm keepin' up to speed
Being everything they told me that I couldn't be

[Verse 2]
Turned to everything they told me I won't
Don't let 'em shut down your dreams, go and prove 'em all wrong
'Cause one day, they gon' say they all was there from the jump
Like okay, I ain't trippin' 'cause it's all said and done
I made a promise to myself, everything be the same
Ain't nothin' different but my wealth, and they all know the name
Still be hard up on myself, that's just part of the game
And how the cards are gettin' dealt, it's just bringing me pain, pain

[Pre-Chorus]
Realized one day this could all be gone
That's why I pray up everyday that I'ma make it home
I took this journey by myself, I got here by my 'lone
'Cause when I need 'em, make a call, they can't pick up the phone

[Chorus]
I put a lot into this shit, I had to muscle up
Think they forgot about the kid, I had to show 'em up
Gave all I got and that's forever, still can't give enough
I miss my brother, he ain't make it to see twenty-one
It made me realize that I been stuck up in a dream
Now it's my job to see just what he couldn't see
It's crazy, time flies so fast, I'm keepin' up to speed
Being everything they told me that I couldn't be
