[Verse 1: Lyte]

This is real life, it ain't no gimmick to watch

'Cause I done been at the bottom and I done been at the top

I'm talking fifteen years, it takes a minute to pop

You're either in it to win it so are you in it or not? (huh?)

So you rep it like a mascot, treat it like your last shot

And bet it all on yourself, you never know when that cash stop

It's a fast drop but you can bounce back

Sayonara, see you later, now go and announce that

We ain't never had no handouts but they fucking with us, hands down

Stand proud and I know you see them fans now

Look at how they swarm, made it out of the storm

Go big or go homeless, that's how you gotta perform (Rush!)

My mind's steady racing, I'm pacing and probably gonna need therapy

Should I do this? Should I do that? Should I move back? Hope you seein' carefully (see carеfully)

Are you hearing me? (Yеs) Are you here with me? (No)

We don't need no sympathy or free charity

[Chorus: Ant G & Lyte]

When the rain fall, chasing rainbows

But I only need tornadoes when I know that I'm fine

Yeah that's when I know I know

That I gotta make it out of the storm

When the sunshine turns to moonshine

And the fine lines don't intertwine right I know

Yeah that's when I know

That I gotta make it out of the storm


[Post-Chorus: Ant G]

I know! Gotta make it out of the storm

I know! I just gotta make it out of this storm

I know! Yeah that's when I know

So that's when I gotta make it out of the storm


[Verse 2: Lyte]

I know what it's like to be the odd one, treated like pond scum

Heart frozen, it's beyond numb

I'm a man of my word, I swear to God, son (flex)

I do whatever it takes to get the job done (uh huh)

And understand what that is buildin' (yup) and how I'm feelin'

There's nothing more important in life (nope) than our children (woo)

'Cause I've been the hero and I've been the villain

And I've been at zero and trying to hit a million (to hit a million)

I'm leaving these chains, believing the same

I'm feeling my demon contained

I'm skin in the game, them leaving in shame

And definitely keeping it tame (sheesh)

I'm speaking insane, I'm screaming in vain

Don't let me receive any pain (naw)

Positive thoughts in my brain (aye), it's keeping me out of the rain

[Chorus: Ant G & Lyte]

When the rain fall, chasing rainbows

But I only need tornadoes when I know that I'm fine

Yeah that's when I know I know

That I gotta make it out of the storm

When the sunshine turns to moonshine

And the fine lines don't intertwine right I know

Yeah that's when I know

That I gotta make it out of the storm


[Post-Chorus: Ant G]

I know! Gotta make it out of the storm

I know! I just gotta make it out of this storm

I know! Yeah that's when I know

So that's when I gotta make it out of the storm


[Verse 3: Lyte]

I've done some things I'm not too proud of

And it haunts me and I'm sick of it

Believe in God! And sin every night, does that make me a hypocrite?

Now flip the script, there's envy in my clique but they need to play their part

And I wonder will I ever make it out this fuckin' trailer park? (What!?)

Yes sir, believe that, and you can bet your sweet ass (ahh)

We focus on ourself, we ain't concerned about what he has (nope)

And see past all the bullshit, no more trouble dude (haha)

Now we serving L's and we bringing home a W (let's go)

Listen, we don't fuck with you (nope), I hope you understand me (facts)

And if you in my circle understand that you is family (awe)

It's time to reset goals, Monstar bringing home a Grammy (yah)

A failure's what I can't be and I ain't got no plan B

[Chorus: Ant G & Lyte]

When the rain fall, chasing rainbows

But I only need tornadoes when I know that I'm fine

Yeah that's when I know I know

That I gotta make it out of the storm

When the sunshine turns to moonshine

And the fine lines don't intertwine right I know

Yeah that's when I know

That I gotta make it out of the storm


[Post-Chorus: Ant G]

I know! Gotta make it out of the storm

I know! I just gotta make it out of this storm

I know! Yeah that's when I know

So that's when I gotta make it out of the storm
