"Who I Am" lyrics
I often think about how much my life has changed
And how I never had trouble expressing who I am
And you know I've always been able to find the value in being myself
We shake hands but you've never been a friend of me
Transparent when revealing my identity
No surrender ever, I would never bend a knee
The person in the mirror has always been my enemy
I don't want the truth, I'd rather hear the lies
I'm bankrupt and broken but my spirit's on the rise
See I can make it there but probably won't make it back
Excuse me while I drift away silently and fade to black
Sacrifices made all the pain it took looked
Focused and determined, always been an open book
I stand out unique, I am different than the rest
Yes, that ladder to success, it got a couple missing steps
This life is more than I deserve
Think about my faults and I know I'm gonna make 'em right
Headed straight and I'm trying not to swerve
The pieces to the puzzle may not fit but Imma make 'em work
[?] now 'cause I would probably crash the flight
I've been writing, rapping almost more than half my life
Walking through the agony, these lyrics are my newsletter
Stuck between "I try my best" and "maybe I can do better"
Is this hell or heaven, I can never tell
I'm just counting every moment 'til the day I hear them wedding bells
I care to be her everything, the pleasure is her rarity
Committed verbal affirmations never no disparity
And Imma be okay, no matter what I say
Back's against the wall, I got these middle fingers raised
I'm giving you every detail, everything, there's no deleted scenes
Must be an image is the biggest reason I'll succeed
I never panic when I start to feel abandoned
I just care about the high, never worry about the landing
I suffered through the years, now I'm finally understanding how
Giving up is not an option now I have a family
Searching to find
What I have lost over time
And I must climb to new heights
Fast pace while holding on tight
And I must rise from the ash
Move forward, never look back
Make the days count as they pass
And pray the pain doesn't last (Let's go)
Building on our trust but the question is do I pray enough
Am I moving forward viciously or staying stuck
I made my own lane driven with the pavement
Of opinions that you have of me I never really gave a fuck
Through all my failures had to give myself a chance
I'll do anything to help you out, anything I can
By saving you, I'm saving me, so come and take my hand
And see, I've always told my story 'cause that's just the way I am
Always told my story 'cause that's just the way I am
I've always told my story 'cause that's just the way I am
And how I never had trouble expressing who I am
And you know I've always been able to find the value in being myself
We shake hands but you've never been a friend of me
Transparent when revealing my identity
No surrender ever, I would never bend a knee
The person in the mirror has always been my enemy
I don't want the truth, I'd rather hear the lies
I'm bankrupt and broken but my spirit's on the rise
See I can make it there but probably won't make it back
Excuse me while I drift away silently and fade to black
Sacrifices made all the pain it took looked
Focused and determined, always been an open book
I stand out unique, I am different than the rest
Yes, that ladder to success, it got a couple missing steps
This life is more than I deserve
Think about my faults and I know I'm gonna make 'em right
Headed straight and I'm trying not to swerve
The pieces to the puzzle may not fit but Imma make 'em work

I've been writing, rapping almost more than half my life
