[Verse 1]
Yo
Have you ever had somebody you loved and they didn't love you back?
Gotta learn how to walk away, ain't too much that can come from that
It's fucked up 'cause I feel like I get more flowers than hugs from rap
And that ain't even where it should be, keep me a duffel pack
I'm leavin' soon, hope I can save a life before I do
You grievin' too? Feels like the more I get, the more I lose
You listen, you'll hear the sound of me dropping all these jеwels
Them cold hours the day that you find out you'rе bein' used
You're reachin' milestones and they don't seem enthused
Got so used to talkin' down, they can't even receive the news
I can tell you're in pain 'cause it's bleedin' through
Rich or poor, there's no difference between the two
When I need a push, I think of the terrible shit that they said
If you ever wanna know who'll leave you for dead, play dead
Me and my people share bonds, open wounds from the same lead
They turn on you, they ain't fed, brand-new paint with the paint red (Uh)
[Chorus]
If you can sit up, then get up, don't ever stop believin'
If you get cut, don't give up, you gotta keep on dreamin'
You'll regret it if you don't try, you can win if you breathin'
Niggas dyin' to get their name known, all for the wrong reason
I've seen so much for so long, it left me traumatized
The game killed who I was, there's been a homicide
Baby, I am who I am, I won't apologize
And 'til this shit is all over, there's nothin' finalized (Uh)
[Verse 2]
I had to drain all these feelings, my heart was swellin'
Nobody knows what I'm thinkin' 'cause I don't tell 'em
Overs and unders, we're winnin', my rivals bettin'
You under pressure, her laws and survival settin'
I done made so many dumb mistakes, but I don't regret 'em
Slippin' may be who I am today, another lesson
People do anything for some money, no second-guessin'
Especially if they down, shit's dangerous in recessions
There's opportunities there, you just lookin' out of the wrong lens
Weaknesses don't have status, nobody checks on their strong friends
The road was tough to get here, but now we stretchin' the long bends
This one means eighteen tapes now and they all tens
You better live, every grave is created equal
You could lose yourself along the way tryna be there for people
Long as I'm with the most high, I don't fear no evil
As time goes by, they just come around when they need you (Uh)
[Chorus]
If you can sit up, then get up, don't ever stop believin'
If you get cut, don't give up, you gotta keep on dreamin'
You'll regret it if you don't try, you can win if you breathin'
Niggas dyin' to get their name known, all for the wrong reason
I've seen so much for so long, it left me traumatized
The game killed who I was, there's been a homicide
Baby, I am who I am, I won't apologize
And 'til this shit is all over, there's nothin' finalized
