[Verse 1] Sometimes it's like all of the odds were created to go against you And it's hard to cope with all of what you've been through And I'm paddlin' with an oar in that boat I seem to drift in Trying not to sink, but the current continues shiftin' I've tried my hardest to make sure failure wasn't the case ‘Cuz if I fail, I wouldn't know just what to do in this place When I say I gave all I had for a future that ain't promised I hope you think I'm sincere; 100% honest I've locked myself in rooms, pacing floors, mind racing Prolly risking a solid life to end up feeling complacent Time progresses, and the truth is, I will never be happy So I continue to chase for what I want, and sometimes that be Messed up; lot of people put their faith inside my sound But I've done almost everything I can with feet on solid ground What other move is there to make? I'm steady rackin' my head But then I heard this beat and Sampha said… [Hook] Let it all work out, let it all work out Let it all work out, let it all work out Let it all work out, let it all work out Let it all work out, let it all work out …but I'm afraid to let it [Verse 2] I think I've lost my mind; I know it's so cliché But with this music I think I sold my whole life away There's really no one close, not even my fam They think that they can help me, but they'll never know just who I am Don't think I'll have no friends since I'm inside my room so much And anyone I meet never bothers to keep in touch And the ones that do keep in touch, they see me on that struggle bus They offer help, but I say nothing since my mouth feels muzzled up Hell yeah, I'm different – I'm something far from fake But if I move, will there be support for my model and make? I'm sure they'll pair me with the lot of ‘em, I'll never be heard They'll just cruise through 13 songs, not hearing every word This is hip-hop, sh**, ain't no place for my kind No room to make them hear me, they'll silently decline Or they'll sound an alarm or whatever, there might be no tellin' But there's a voice behind my mind that's yellin' [Hook] Let it all work out, let it all work out Let it all work out, let it all work out Let it all work out, let it all work out Let it all work out, let it all work out And while I'm at it; family, don't you get it? [Verse 3] Tell me what you'd go through if you'd always try to stay true To your plans with fire under your a**, but there's nothing to do And you know the only solution's to let it be so it'll do somethin' But it's only a matter of time ‘fore your dreams face execution? Family say I need my sh** together; hate that thesis They don't know what I've been doing to set up the pieces But I hear are warning shots, they a**ume all my plans I blew Like, “Khrys, that is not what you had said you would do.” But I say, “I got time on your side.” “Focus only on the music that you play and you write.” – I try to focus I hear disappointment; all my tears cried So all I ever am is straight up stressed out all night – and that sh**'s bogus And if they continue, then I just might feel inclined To go and find my real family, because that family ain't mine I won't hesitate to disown ‘em, and they'll probably disown me But hopefully they'll know me when I… [Hook] Let it all work out, let it all work out Let it all work out, let it all work out Let it all work out, let it all work out Let it all work out, let it all work out All of it will, and I def won't regret it
