Make Somethin' of Yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Looking out the window thinkin' bout the shit I've been through

Not that shit I told you but the shit I never get to

Mr Smile for the camera

Always make it look so simple

Sometimes just keeping it together seems so fucking monumental

What if, what if

What if I crash and I burn?

Maybe I got so caught up in teaching I forgot how to learn

What if I let down all my friends

And all this music shit just ends

And everything's about to fall apart just like my father says to me

But ma mama say I'll make it

She say boy you gon be the greatest

So pardon me while I become a monster

And give out everything I have to offer

But right now it feels stupid that I gotta make it out alive

Time to pay the price it costs of to

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Not proud of all the things I did

But I'm proud I can admit that

Yes I was a truly messed up kid

But I blessed up quick don't forget that

It's a shame my parents had to split

But I had nothing to do with that

Took a while to understand cause I thought love was a gift you don't give back

I guess, it all appeared a facade

And that's right around the time I stopped believing in God

Started believing in myself

Look I don't need no one else

And whether it was right or wrong

At the time I swear that shit really helped (it did)

But all I know is how to keep it moving

They try and stop me and I keep pursuing

I'm moving up like Hallelujah

So pardon me while I become a monster

And overcome everything I encounter

But right now it feels stupid that I gotta make it out alive

Time to pay the price it costs of to

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Please just let me make it

Please just grant this wish for me for granted I won't take it

I need to make somethin' of myself

I know I said I didn't believe earlier

But God if you're real I need some help

I need to make somethin'

More than just money

I thought that was gon make me happy

It just made me so ugly

I really need to make somethin'

Some kind of difference

I know I've got it inside me I just hope you'll be my witness

I'm gonna make somethin'
