[Hook]
I can't believe I made it this far
But I was just trying to work hard
Cause I started with nothing, yeah
Started with nothing, yeah
I can't believe I made it this far
But I was just trying to work hard
Cause I started with nothing, yeah
Started with nothing, yeah
I told 'em believe in my grind
But people didn't pay me no mind
Cause I started with nothing, yeah
Started with nothing, yeah
[Verse 1]
Wish my mother could see me right now
Wish my grandmas could see me right now
I'd do anything to see they smile
Rest in peace, I ain't see them in a while
Since my mom died I've been on my own
Lil' n***a holding down home
A teenager feeling like he grown
I'm too deep to feel like I'm alone
Do you remember?
I was making ca**ette tapes, do you remember?
How you said I should've pressed play, but you would never
Give me a chance, but rather listen what you call it
Sometimes the people close to you is the least supportive
I'm wishing on shining stars and reaching for them
Real n***as live through me and I'm speaking for them
Curb the bullsh** and just stack paper
Cause n***as don't help you, they just want favors
All of that fake love sh** is what I don't like
Strangers show more love than people I known my whole life
I hit the block, smoke weed and role dice
Hungry for success even on a slow night
[Hook]
I can't believe I made it this far
But I was just trying to work hard
Cause I started with nothing, yeah
Started with nothing, yeah
I told 'em believe in my grind
When people don't pay me no mind
Cause I started with nothing, yeah
Started with nothing, yeah
