Go
Hold up
Hold up
Hold up
Yeah
If I'm changing with time
Then I'm changing the same
This thing called time
Stays the same
And changes
Still the same me
Though time passes
Still the same kid
No matter what happens
Flipping through pages
Memories remind me
Where I left my patience
Waiting
Went from getting shitted on
To life shapeshifted
You can't fake this
You hate this
I'm your worst nightmare
And favorite
Face it
Greatness
Came from the dirt
And waited my turn
Patience
Remembered to learn
Grateful
And gave you the words
Cursive
Had to walk it first
Purpose
Thrown in the rubble
And paved it
For you to
Jog
Run
Sprint
Jog
Catch wind
Just to sprint again
It cycles again
Forever written
Most of what happens
Is the universe talking
Growth sets in
When we listen
Yeah
Traumatized youth
Traumatized you
Yeah, me too
Trauma me
Trauma you
Who knew
The trauma we fell to
Can be
The trauma that leads to
And led to
The strength to
Grow from
And Grow to
Hold up
Change you
And lift you
Hold up
Gift you
We're grown new
Hold up
A better me
A better you
Traumatized
By time
Flashback of life
Traumatized
By lies
Turned
Weaponized
Memories been
Jeopardized
Been high
So long
Became my sober mind
Work 7 to 5
Forever working in mind
I had to survive
Got a life and it shines
Don't let them steal your time
Flashbacks from mine
So many moments
Of useless focus
Wasted
Caught in the moment
Choking
Knowing
Is the first step
To freedom
If they don't grow you
Then you don't need em
What is your damage?
Know the Tanners
From an empty house
Taught me this grammar
Built this life with a broken hammer
I'll ask you again
What is your damage?
Bitch I'm David Banner
Landed
Shedding my skin
Thrown in the hamper
Talent cannot
Be pampered
I reach for reflection
And my soul answers
Traumatized youth
Traumatized you
Yeah, me too
Trauma me
Trauma you
Who knew
The trauma we fell to
Can be
The trauma that leads to
And led to
The strength to
Grow from
And Grow to
Hold up
Change you
And lift you
Hold up
Gift you
We're grown new
Hold up
A better me
A better you
Hold up
Hold up
Hold on
Go
Hold up
Hold up
Hold on
Go
Hold up
Hold up
Hold on
Go
Hold on
Hold on
Hold on
