Humble But Hungry

(album: Humble But Hungry - 2018)

I couldn't breathe from depression and all the pressure around me
Up the creek without a paddle I was drowning
Crying out for help, I was yelling, nobody found me
Then I made it out on top like a king somebody crowned me
People living off prescription bottles, keep popping til they hit the bottom
To keep on going they just hit the bottom
Don't stop until your heart is hollow
I saw demons everywhere I went
Every single day would start to blend
'Bout a year I lost all my friends
Saw my life through a different lens
I was battling these obstacles
I was so irresponsible
And I wasn't thinking logical
Everybody around me said I couldn't do what I'm doing and it was impossible
This is real stress, real struggle, real life
Waking up and something just don't feel right
I was stuck in the dark, couldn't see light
I was skipping every meal, could eat right
Everybody got the best of me
It was God and the Devil, they were testing me
All alone, there was there was nobody that would check on me
Now I made it, Everybody want the recipe, nah

I'm humble, I'm breaking walls to set me free
I'm hungry, I'm dreaming big 'cause nobody will do it for me
I give my life, my strength, my energy
I'll rise through it all, wait and see

I couldn't breathe from anxiety
People around me lie to me
People I would die for, wouldn't even ride for me
Had the darkness inside of me
I was losing fight in me
Searching for the light in me
I was losing sight of me
A 9 to 5, more like 5 to 10
Chasing money, I don't ever waste time
Sliding in DMs, If I die tonight then imma rise again
It's not about jewelry, clothes, women or the ride you in
While you worried about being fresh to death, I was next to death
I was hooked on anxiety and depression meds
Overtime and long nights, damn, for minute lost sight
This is Dicky pants and white tee's
No supreme and off white

I'm humble, I'm breaking walls to set me free
I'm hungry, I'm dreaming big 'cause nobody will do it for me
I give my life, my strength, my energy
I'll rise through it all, wait and see

Thought I would lose myself
I was sure I would lose myself
And in a way, I was scared I would lose myself
But I dreamed and I pushed myself

I'm humble, I'm breaking walls to set me free
I'm hungry, I'm dreaming big 'cause nobody will do it for me
I give my life, my strength, my energy
I'll rise through it all, wait and see
