[Chorus]
I been told I ain't gon' make it through
I been told I ain't as good as you
But I know better
I know better
[Verse 1]
Yeah, I was made for this
Sit alone inside tryin' to get a piece to fit
Life was a brick
But the truth is
I'm filled with doubt, like I'm useless
I'm figuring how can I use this music
Cuz a lot of times I feel like I'm stupid
Like how can I see, and believe, that I'll be, or achieve
Something real, when I feel, like I beat you in the wings [?]
It's not real, but it's real that I feel the chill [?]
And I deal with it still, and I kneel, and I feel
And I start to agree, with that spark, that I feel
But it's dark, tellin' me, that I got something big
At the heart, keep in sync [?]
And my arm's got ink too
[Verse 2]
Remind me there's people out there
Wanted to give up, but then my album told 'em not, yeah
Only a coward will be powered by them random 'tards
I created a place for us
So get the hell out
They picked me up when I was about to go
They predict that my style is about to blow
They can fix every pile that I shine and roll
So I spit like my mind is blind, behold
And I don't rap, to get signed by no rat
That'll define, all the sh** that I find
When I'm trapped in my mind
And my back and my spine
Got a lack of decline
Cuz I snap like a vine
To attack, every slim-y f**
But still
[Chorus]
I been told I ain't gon' make it through
I been told I ain't as good as you
But I know better
I know better
I been told I ain't got buck and shine
And I been told that I ain't worth the time
But I know better
I know better
[Verse 3]
Yeah, heaven can wait
Cuz I got sh** to do
They try to settle my faith
I ain't got sh** to lose
I was made for the stage
And then locked in the booth
And it's not about the fame, because I speak the truth
When I get my hands around a microphone
Some respect is given, and I'm feelin' strong
Cuz I wreck this [?] song
But then I get the feelin' that I'm not alone
UH, yeah, but the truth is
I'm filled with hope like I'm proofless [?]
I'm fairl-y sho', I can use this, music
Cuz a lot of times, I feel, like I'm losing [?]
Yeah, and if you want or can relate
There's a reason we connect through the music that I make
One day I'll get on the road
And meet all of yah
I wanna battle every war with yah, and go toe with yah
Motherf** everybody that don't believe
Yeah, I've got my supporters, what more do I need?
Hip-hop in my blood, and I'm feelin' the beat
Got lot's of mud and grit on my feet
Yeah, I'ma yell out
Gotta look, wait, further for the sell out
Gotta look, wait, further for the bail out
I'm gonna stick to the end, my friend
No matter what they say
I'm Mads
[Chorus]
I been told I ain't gon' make it through
I been told I ain't as good as you
But I know better
I know better
I been told I ain't got buck and shine
And I been told that I ain't worth the time
But I know better
I know better
