Allrounda - Far Away lyrics

[Verse 1] I've always been here for you, always been reasonable Leaking all my secrets not knowing who I'm speaking to It's not about the image, all that matters is the lyrics 22 years of living, summed up in 50 minutes Perseverance, effort, trials, tribulations Determination, venting all the pain and frustration 10 dollars a copy just to cover the cost Pay 100 dollars and you're still ripping me off Can't stop, there's no time for looking back Biggest heart in the pack, hardest worker, in fact Channel it through rap, it's tough to get where I'm at I'll run ‘till my lungs collapse, or have a heart attack A true soldier, rest when it's all over Won't fade away, I'll burst in flames like a Supernova Forget hard-working, I'm just proud and stupid If a brick wall gets in my way, then I'm going through it [Verse 2] Every day's a grind, I barely chill, but never mind The first to apologize, first to be honest Always preoccupied, but still a decent guy And my son will be twice the man I am in half the time I'm like Voyager 1 on the run from the Sun The discipline I'm living with is second next to none Built my self-esteem trying to manifest my dreams You don't have any idea what goes on behind the scenes Opposite of lazy, go where my legs will take me Call it bravery, but dedication is like slavery Far from the usual, never a sore loser Can't be left with a thousand pasts and no future Gave you my heart 'cause that's what you wanted Channeling the hardship is my job as an artist Aware of my surroundings, and study them profoundly Won't dumb myself down so you're comfortable around me [Verse 3] Can't stop 'til d**h when the battle is won A real boss gets the job done, regardless of the outcome Want you to understand the nature of this product Everything that had to happen just so I could make this album My dad died, watched my mother cry, and bounce back from that Just a kid, I became the man-child with the master plan Mastered rap, man of the house but I couldn't handle that Somethings you need to experience to understand Let's talk about the past, putting everyone on blast I was difficult, but you never gave me a chance Teachers, coaches that help never helped me advance They put me down, but never offered a helping hand Bitter humans, so they sat back and talked smack But I've been the better person since the start, you understand A star was born from the moment I became a man From the moment when I had to say goodbye to my dad
