I know, I know

That I might be better off right here, right here, alone

And I know, I know, I know

That I can’t learn to love your flaws until I love my own

Cause I became a diamond

I been pressured my whole life

Stressing my whole my life

Working toward dreams of flexing my whole life

Never second guessing, I was destined

To become a blessing my whole life, no half stepping

Man it's alright, dodging the police

And gunshots at parties that make niggas not wanna go out no nights

But we still go some more nights

It’s something about almost losing yours, give you more life

It’s something about almost losing giving you more fight

It's something about coming up short that help you reach higher heights

I remember I used to want cry at night

With dreams of sold out arenas, at open mics not getting picked

Hoping someone would just see us

But now when they hear me they pledge allegiance

Turn grown men into fetus, when it come to theses raps

And it's for good reason, I been doing this for so long now

It's innate now, man it’s second to breathing

Born premature used struggling breathing

Now I struggle demons, it's not even really a struggle

They just keep coming back after I beat them

But I think that I need them, cause they

Cause they keep me on my toes

But it’s alright

Turn that bull shit off, bro

I’m not going to keep telling you

Said I'm just spilling my life

Said how I get it is a way that you was never ever living in your life

You ain't never looked someone in there eyes

And realize they might lose they life in they life

You never had a barrel between your eyes from people protecting your rights

Telling you, you don't got rights

Your fear losing your life. I fear what would happen

To people who hit my line to survive, if my voice ain't on the other side

I no longer about the other side. They say everybody has their own personal heaven

So I know that I'll be in somebody's even if I never have mine

Prioritize. And now I never have time. For things that I used to

Have you ever watched someone lose you?

Have you ever watched someone use you?

Crazy the same people claim that you changed

Say that you a new you, start to boo you

Until you realize they never ever really knew you

It’s alright

I might be better off right here, right here alone

And I know, I know, I know

That I can’t learn to love your flaws until I love my own
