lyrics

i released ‘Make It Out Alive’
on the same day that my grandma died
everybody asking me if i’m ok
Kumar asked me why i never cried
i said if mums cool, then i’m cool
i understand that death is part of life
& when we transcend is out of our hands
thats one thing that we won’t decide
i haven’t got no right to be sad
look at the legacy she left behind
Helen,Yeah she lived life
Phe said GaGan lives in the sky
keep questioning the timing of things
but i promise you everything here is by design
focus on the mission at hand
stick to the pattern & follow the guidelines
still got a lot on my mind when i sleep
i’m worried about them are they worried about me
still not sure if i’m doing the right thing all of my mistakes looped on repeat
keep wondering about who i am without this
or am i doing this all just for p
i feel like i’m losing the love for this daily
i want to keep going, but it’s hard to see
what is it going to be like when i’m not here?
what are they going to be saying?
will there still be a feeling when i’m not here?
wondering if its worth it
i don’t wanna live life thinking that i got years
& then its all gone & i don’t even understand how i got here
but now i’m at a point where i know life is not fair
i was getting confused
always trying to compare
i never had no context i don’t know i got there
trying to kill talking about top tier
then i saw my mum cry
thats God tears
feeling distant & displaced
then i remember that i’m not from there
dispite all of that i still got hope
anywhere the family deh
thats home
anywhere the family deh
thats me
i never came this far on my own
i never came this far to get this far
i can’t quit now
i feel I’m too close
i can’t quit now i’m still good to go
stick to the code
maintain control
stay composed
& if its none of your business
jut make sure that you ain’t involved
i pray the most high
sheds light on what weighs on you most
& any path that you venture on
i hope that you see growth
thats goal
so shake off the feeling you ain’t good enough
don’t let them tell us what’s good for us
they broke us down
we’ve took enough
look at the powers she put in us
we’re the ingredients for everything here
don’t let these heathens cook for us
corrupted everything they could corrupt
changed maps & hid books from us
now they want verses & hooks from us
styles ideas & looks from us
look at the labels they put on us
remember the way they looked at us
now look at us
