how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

listen

music my flesh and blood

it's been my only love since ye high

i used to play jay high and ye high

thinking one day i would go from fan to fuckin player

i guess i found a way huh

my nigga cozz wants zendaya

a side note

i'm rooting for you

i use these bars and start recruiting for you

but treat her right

and just remember on your lonely nights this mic will be your friend

you tell it all your secrets that you keeping deep within

your fantasies

regrets

your happy moments and your sins

and if he doesn't comprehend at least he can pretend

let's begin to be the men we never seen

in the 80's they smoke crack but now today they sippin' lean

and poppin' xannies

fuck niggas runnin' from their families

the streets don't give a fuck about the grammys

wish i could talk to granny

wish i could smoke in peace

but when it hit the blunt lately my mind it tortures me

everything ain't supposed to be

apparently

i take it as a sign and stick the shit that's steering me

in the direction of some clarity

this music is my therapy

i thank the lord cause he care for me

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

you know i gotta thank god

how else i make it this far

far

music is my soul and fuel

i guess it only saves a chosen few

from going to school or selling dope

crazy

back in school i was bumping cole daily

now i'm writing rhymes in the notebook that cole gave me

and bro you so crazy

but all i can do is thank you

you threw your boy a lob

and shit

i ain't even say to

but fuck it all that shit he stay true

cause you a dime

i'm sure you hear that every day

cool so look

fuck being fine cause i know you got a brain too

and shit

let me not get my plate full

you know your brain moves

a little different when you haven't ate food

so i'mma leave it up to fate to make these decisions

and stick to my intentions

i did it for more of the passion

not the great checks

knowing that there's more than fat asses and great sex

tryna be the man i ain't yet

but demons stuck on me like ashes on gray sweats

cause man i ain't made shit and i'm lacking the patience

it's a battle to take in the fact that i ain't win

yet

what am i saying again

i can't go play and win

i travel and take trips

i look to god then i thank him

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

yeah

how else i make it this far

how else i make it this far

you know i gotta thank god

how else i make it this far

far

look i ain't got money to blow but i'm getting there dawg

can't get momma a home but i'm getting there y'all

won't reach the end of the road just sittin' there dawg

how you gon' learn to grow if you ain't listening y'all?

look

i'm still a student of the game but i been through some things

and i could school you rather say don't be clueless in the brain

you gotta learn to fly before you cruising with the planes

and you could be a boss

just gotta do it in your lane

choosing and choose to pray instead of choosing to pray

to use and abuse for pay

you doing it for the love or you doing it to get praised?

what would you do for fame if it was family or money?

they probably lose you today

probably buy a car and try and coup with the pain

sometimes homies and hoes is truly the same

try and screw you for change

yeah it's truly a shame

but somehow i seem to see the beauty in the rain

i made it this far
