Lyrics: Being an independent artist can be very rewarding, but it can also be very stressful, trying to balance music, family, work, paying the bills. It can take its toll on you mentally, physically, and even spiritually, AND sometimes you can't help but ask yourself:
[Hook] Do I do it all in vain? Cause still not enough know my name I been putting everything I have into my music my heart, my soul, my pain. Will I ever make it past the point I'm at now will I level up in this game? I sacrifice so much still the question remains...
[Verse 1] I work hard for my family, and I still try to build a music career it's a juggling act and I struggle with that it's been tough just to get to here But I've made dope shit for years several times a day I gotta switch the gears father, provider, husband, artist so much as on my plate damn it's severe And I get so frustrated wondering why haven't I just made it yeah I'm doing good with my music but I can't support my family from it yet I gotta upgrade it trust faded plus jaded I'm underrated and I just hate it everyday I'm being pulled in different directions and now I'm feeling overwhelmed and suffocated When I'm off work but I'm working on music I feel guilty I'm not with my kids but when I'm with my kids in the back of my head I think damn I need to handle biz I'm tryna be the best dad that I can I really hope my KIDS understand that I am trying to set a really a good example, A man that can handle A fam while advancing his plans In a game full of venomous snakes opportunists, and degenerate fakes for years I been busting ass plus uppin cash sick of banging on the fucking glass when will it break I know the struggle strengthens and you can't rise up if you're not pulled under see I'll never lose hunger but I can't help but wonder
[Hook]x2
[Verse 2] Yeah, I made it further than they ever thought but I'm still not living the life I wanna live yet and THAT'S not because it's never sought I work hard, I feel like I deserve better when will life hand me the 23rd letter? Take shots bustin' like Berrettas Great Scott A King like Coretta heavy is the head that wears the crown many want me dead they wanna tear me down but they treat me like royalty when they're around unfortunately loyalty is rarely found I'm a king in my own right and I spring from the low life Dream when there's no light Though my talent is supreme that I adamantly bring I still haven't got the cream I can hold tight Satan wants me to sell him my soul in exchange for the fame I keep telling him no he said I might as well get the dough I got a hell of a flow, but I'm incomplete like Bell and DeVoe He said
