I been playing solo, tryna win the game
I don't like to look at photos, they bring back the pain
I been on my own so long, standing in the rain
People look and they don't understand they saying I'm insane
Is it that bad, That I'm tryna live my life
I would rather die then go and work a 9-5
Lost so many friends, this for them they are my drive
I don't got a backup so I know I'm gonna strive
I was cutting hair, selling gs, making coffee too
Life hasn't been easy on me still I'd never swap with you
Now I got a story I can tell when Im in the booth
You can see the difference in me soon as I step in the room
I ain't like nobody else there's no need for comparisons
I don't get ashamed of what I've done it's not embarrassing
I say that it's confidence but some might call it's arrogance
I was born with something like a gift I know it's heaven sent
Crazy how my brother was the first, to graduate uni
In my whole damn family tree
I come from a line of people who weren't good at being pupils
So there's only one of us who got a degree
Props to him but that ain't me
I know who I'm tryna be
I just want all of my idols saying that they fans of me
Imma need some luck too
Doubt me I say fuck you
Kp what you up to?
I been playing solo, tryna win the game
I don't like to look at photos, they bring back the pain
I been on my own so long, standing in the rain
People look and they don't understand they saying I'm insane
Is it that bad, That I'm tryna live my life
I would rather die then go and work a 9-5
Lost so many friends, this for them they are my drive
I don't got a backup so I know I'm gonna strive
Shit I must've heard it like a thousand times
You can't make a living off of writing writes
Would they rather I was out selling lines
Theres no way up to the top if you don't climb
I ain't been the best son,
Frankly I been far from it
Time and time I messed up
Got a couple scars from it
Don't care what the rest does
Ill be working hard for it
If god wanna test us
I know it gone cost something
See the snakes they watching tryna cross me like a bishop
I been grinding for too long can't nothing make me give up
Waste your life away I'm tryna ball you tryna pick up
Worried bout the frame just focus on the bigger picture
I wanna be wealthy you wanna get richer
I don't like to drink that much of the liquor
Psalm 51 ask for forgiveness in the scripture
I been playing solo, tryna win the game
I don't like to look at photos, they bring back the pain
I been on my own so long, standing in the rain
People look and they don't understand they saying I'm insane
Is it that bad, That I'm tryna live my life
I would rather die then go and work a 9-5
Lost so many friends, this for them they are my drive
I don't got a backup so I know I'm gonna strive
