[Verse 1]
Walking on these tracks like the music is under our feet
It's all up to me like these songs are all featuring me
It's all up to me like I gotta take care of the fam
If I don't learn from them, then I don't know who I am
I started at that that private school like the boy was privileged
Confused my past for having riches But when opportunities arise you can't miss it
Easy to hear but hard to listen, the real cost to pay attention
And
That's something we can all afford
Rather drive Bugatti but cool with Honda civics and accords
Lucky enough for the Beamer that my mom's pa** down
Just had to run errands for her all over the town
Put so many miles that my car broke down
Like, "I'm supposed to drive girls in this?" but I'm joking now
I still got my drive so I'm hoping now
Mom said I use to be loud
I'm soft spoken now
Chilling to this beat with a can of brisk
Thinking I ain't going no where if i don't take a risk
Put in all my chips
And i don't even play poker
Some nights I'm Batman
Some nights I'm the Joker
Just tryna do better so this world can respect me
'Cause I'm feeding off the love and I think y'all neglect me
Working hard so I don't die from starvation
Put my life on the track so I can get to the station
[Hook]
Like, I'm hoping this is something you can ride to
Early mornings, late nights
Like I'm hoping this is something you can vibe to
My story, my life
When you on the train reaching destination
Just know I'm on these tracks so you see me at the station
[Verse 2]
Nights with the bros like what we getting into
'Cause these nights in the house really get into your mental
Got that J. Cole teeth like that's some bad dental
But didn't want the braces 'cause y'all ain't know what I been through
Yea
The big ears like Will Smith if you was feeling it
I needed it
'Cause other kids called me Dumbo
"Oh, y'all comedians?"
Hoping jokes would stop if i got a new outfit
But needed something much stronger so rap was an outlet
Hear these rappers go through my struggle
In a different way
Showing me tomorrow was a different day
And maybe one day
I can do the same thing
For another generation
So they don't have to be locked up with no visitation
I'm giving my presentation
I'm your son's hero
He ain't know I was a zero
To being someone everyone can like
Just making someone laugh can save they life
Do this everyday
I do this every night
Just hope I'm on the right track
No back tracks
I'mma owe y'all like a back tax
That's racks on racks
But I rather relax
It's either lifting 'til breaking backs
Or on streets selling crack
Sweating in my own house, the AC broke, keep the window crack
The apple isn't far from the tree, I guess I'm a mac
Shout out to my dad
Most these kids lose parents to d** but we breaking bad
I'm breaking that so another kid gets love from his dad
[Hook]
