Real Me

Take it back to my journey Being broke was not working Minimum wage I wasn't paid But I knew that it'd be worth it Go to school but not learning Learning bout my main purpose Selling out shows, doing the most Know that I gotta go earn it Pro tools on my laptop Everyday I be wrapped up Making beats and I'm making songs But nobody would put me on Started out on my Soundcloud 50 plays and I'm gassed up Knew that I gotta keep going cuz people be watching now I cannot back up Mama told me I'd make it Pops told me be patient Brother told me I'd pop off Never wanna be famous Instagram makes animals People focused on getting views I just been focused on music I'm hoping to do everything that I said do I remember when they thought I wouldn't make it I remember when they thought that I was crazy I remember every time that I fell down But it turned me to the man that I am now This the real me Yeah this the real me Everybody stayed down on the same team This the real me Yeah this the real me And we all came up What a feeling This the real me Yeah this the real me Everybody stayed down on the same team This the real me Yeah this the real me And we all came up What a feeling Growing up never the best But I got heart in my chest Never the one who would quit History telling the rest People be counting on me so I gotta make everything happen for me Cuz I gotta lotta people waiting on me and I got a family I need to impress Yes Know I'm the man Know I be counting up bands Always remember the past Knew that it never would last Everyone who would've laughed Now they all gone Everything on Don't need a party I gotta make songs People be listening what I'm envisioning but I be hoping the righting my wrongs Yeah Everything that I built up Took a lot of time And a lot of gut Lot of self belief Lot of sacrifice But I let it be This ain't overnight And I stayed down When it got tough And I got friends And they show love So we came up and we stay up This ain't Hollywood I won't change up I know I remember when they thought I wouldn't make it I remember when they thought that I was crazy I remember every time that I fell down But it turned me to the man that I am now This the real me Yeah this the real me Everybody stayed down on the same team This the real me Yeah this the real me And we all came up What a feeling This the real me Yeah this the real me Everybody stayed down on the same team This the real me Yeah this the real me And we all came up What a feeling
