Uh yeah
I'm all done searching
But the world keeps turning
Yeah turn me up
Yo it started off at 16 when life was pristine
I'm on the six-speed rolling through thinking up big dreams
Peddling a shoe box of discs, couldn't even give these
I dropped the act and moved on I had to get green
Putting the rap on hold I played the long game
The college put my head in the books like fucking Mark Twain
I was offstage as people were passing by in the wrong lane
But they burned out before they done break 'cause they just sought fame
And it took some time to see this shit was not a race
Needed to stand on my own two like in a squat cage
Wasn't making the same mistakes that come and hurt you
Took control of my affairs and trusted patience was a virtue
I'm all set I can just spit it without the pressure
Not coming through for the money, I'm just doing this for the pleasure
When it's all said, that was the reason y'all hadn't heard of me
'Cause I was the investment not coming due 'til maturity
But I'm here now
And I'm looking around but there's no one else
I don't need your help
The only thing that can hold me down is myself
Hanging back in the shadows I was working
Trying to find the real me but I'm all done searching
I'ma stay right here while the world keeps turning
Coming full circle now this is my resurgence
It's the 2020s, the mindset's go go go
But with a little self-awareness that's a no-go zone
I'm out forging my own path I'm in YOLO mode
Got nothing taken me down there's no promo code
I'm not into the follower culture that can box you in
I just see the route y'all are going and run opposite
Limited options when there's all these kids like half my age
Dominating the waves rapping about their mental states
"Ah c'mon man, that's just generalizational talk"
What? That the youth today is as motivated as bullfrogs?
I'm through the ringer, I planned my six-hour wedding bro
But six years later I'm still writing out thank you notes
Easy to get discouraged, ask me why I did it?
They'll always be some out the woodwork yelling at me to quit it
I don't do this shit for them but it tells you lots when
Not everyone's a fan but they're still around watching
But I'm here now
And I'm looking around but there's no one else (Oh shit)
Don't need your fucking help
The only thing that can hold me down is myself
Hanging back in the shadows I was working
Trying to find the real me but I'm all done searching
I'ma stay right here while the world keeps turning
Coming full circle now this is my resurgence
I'm staying right here
Yeah
