[Chorus]
If I take one, pray for me, hope for the best
It's the only way to deal with the stress
They want me locked up, tied down, hopeless, and wreckless
All my teachers probably thought I would be dead right now, yeah
But somehow, yeah
I made it out, out out
Of course you care now, of course you care now
[Verse 1: Kayos]
In need of a hero
They said if you wanna see one, be one
They treat you like a god 'til you bleed some
They only show you love once you bе somethin
Now they got their hands out likе they need somethin'
Oh you need somethin'?
You just want keys to a Benz
I want peace when I breathe from within
Release these demons when I speak to the wind
Yeah, if you thought I forgot
This a reminder I fought the position I got
There is no opposition, it’s just me versus myself with every word I jot
Song I drop
Every single fuckin' investment I bought
They said school is what I need to do make it but I'm self taught
Creating art, making moves
Making more money than people with their stupid advice
Ever thought?
[Chorus]
If I take one, pray for me, hope for the best
It's the only way to deal with the stress
They want me locked up, tied down, hopeless, and wreckless
All my teachers probably thought I would be dead right now, yeah
But somehow, yeah
I made it out, out out
Of course you care now, of course you care now
If I take one, pray for me, hope for the best
It's the only way to deal with the stress
They want me locked up, tied down, hopeless, and wreckless
All my teachers probably thought I would be dead right now, yeah
But somehow, yeah
I made it out, out out
Of course you care now, of course you care now
[Verse 2: Abstract]
Ask 'em how the safe route goin'
Saw the pandemic hit, tried to tell 'em that a drought comin'
See, it's funny 'cause they said that I was reckless
Nowadays safe don't seem too protective
Layoffs, corporate made off like a bandit
Sit down, I ain't sure that you can stand it
That I paved a way that's on my own
Bricks I laid by honoring my soul
See, the way I'm living came a long way for sure (Uh-huh)
Backstages in places my bag's secure (Uh-huh)
Knowin' I ain't got a boss, ain't no mercy sought (Uh-huh)
More wins on me, 'bout as much as a loss
Lonely road know me, I carry the cross
That's offense to goalie, I'm callin' the shots
Y'all should own Tonys for actin' shocked
Record team on a dream when I pass the rock, yeah
[Chorus]
If I take one, pray for me, hope for the best
It's the only way to deal with the stress
They want me locked up, tied down, hopeless, and wreckless
All my teachers probably thought I would be dead right now, yeah
But somehow, yeah
I made it out, out out
Of course you care now, of course you care now
If I take one, pray for me, hope for the best
It's the only way to deal with the stress
They want me locked up, tied down, hopeless, and wreckless
All my teachers probably thought I would be dead right now, yeah
But somehow, yeah
I made it out, out out
Of course you care now, of course you care now
