Blood sweated tears became the ink within the pen
Lot swollen, lot wrote, where should I begin?
The pain an struggle, turn into my hustle
The torment trouble turn into my muscle
American dreams became dreams the birth
For others they became American nightmares
Mom ... loosing the house
She did so much for me so now I'm trying to help her out
Got promises to keep and some people to look after
Staying on my grind, yeah, trying not to slack off
Work on my shoulders, trying not to falter
Always under pressure, but never under boulder
... and regression, I'm part of the progression
Mistakes are part of life, I take them like a blessing
Back twice as smart, twice as hungry
Greed twice as strong but the world can't stop me
[Chorus]
Love, I ain't leaving, I'm still doing me
Shit, let's keep it real, hommie, that's just me
This is me now, I can't turn back
This is what made me, I can't turn back
Lost property and lost some of the best smiths
Some cats withered, fell back, and start regressing
I went back, restocked and started over
With my rear-view will look over my shoulder
Fake snakes, no love, they full of hate
Fake pounds and the smiles upon their face
The ones that hurt you most, the ones close
Loyalty is rare, so lets work this way then go
Some where helped out by the hands that feed them
They had to help them, everytime they need them
Let them sleep on the couch, they didn't charge the rent
Help you with your money to help pay out your debt
You talk behind my back and stick a dagger in it
It hurts more to know all that and you did it
All these cats are two faced, can't trust one
Then they wonder why I chose to trust none
[Chorus]
Love, I ain't leaving, I'm still doing me
Shit, let's keep it real, hommie, that's just me
This is me now, I can't turn back
This is what made me, I can't turn back
Sometimes we make excuses to not achieve greatness
But I take that biz go hard, so I'mma make it
Think about my life and the sentence I make
What's wrong with you girls getting aids
People die from lung cancer, still, I choose addictions
Mom sacrificed for the way her son's living
Told me work hard, but leave and don't ever stop
Think about my cousin locked up and never shot up
I follow the same path and learn from mistakes
G through the same cycle and break that chain
I used to let insecurity dominate my ego
Tryna be, but not to satisfy people
At the end of the day I just gotta be me
Can't live behind the gloves I just wanna be free
[Chorus]
Love, I ain't leaving, I'm still doing me
Shit, let's keep it real, hommie, that's just me
This is me now, I can't turn back
This is what made me, I can't turn back
