This my story
I won't let you tell it for me
It's my life
Had a lot of shit go wrong
I had to fight
And hold on tight
You see these scars
Will never fade
It's like I died came back
To life to prove a point
That I was right
I sacrificed
And that's the way I do it
It got me through it
No lie
If things were different
I would lose it
End up dead or in jail
Being stupid
Still I keep on going
Against all odds
I say f*ck it keep on going
Praying every day to God
For my blessings
I keep on going
Yeah I keep on going
It was back in 05 April 17th
A memory so full of grief
Pops called to hit me up
On the other line
But I kept it brief
If I knew
That phone call be the last time
When I'd talk to him
Then I would've done the opposite
Say back I love you too
And that taught me not to hold grudges
I'll forever regret
Seeing him lying lifeless
In a casket
I will never forget
I blamed God for years man
Cuz he wasn't even done yet
He hadn't seen me grown up yet
And my little bro was an infant
Now i'm 22 and getting older
Feeling the weight of the world
Push down on my shoulders
And overtime became hotheaded
Where my heart's colder
They called me a bad person
But that's how I was when I was hurting
Nobody to teach me how
Can you blame me now?
I ain't perfect
And all of those people
Don't need to remind me
Everybody in this world is so judgemental
They're always keeping their eye on me
Pushing for me to slip up, I give up
To the point to where i was there dying
Cuz I know what it's like to be dying
Then that day I almost died the same way, a heart attack
I gripped my chest it turn to black
Couldn't breathe
Beating fast
Laid up in the ER
They cut me open
Felt all that
Found God in that hospital bed
I made it back
Cuz this my story
I won't let you tell it for me
It's my life
Had a lot of shit go wrong
I held on tight
And found the light
See I'm proud to show these scars
Yeah I died came back
To life to prove a point
That I can change and paid the price
And that's the way I did it
Went past my limits
It's the truth
I didn't stop until I finished
Made it on my own terms
As predicted
And still I keep on going
Against all odds
Man you gotta keep on going
Still praying every day to God
For my blessings
I keep on going
I Keep on going
And I'll still keep going
