I gotta make my mama proud and tell her I won't let her down

Gotta keep my head above the water even when I seem to drown

I gotta keep my faith when they tell me

"You ain't gon' make it out"

On the days they lock my business up

I gotta take a different route

Yeah

Gotta beat the odds every step I take

Tryna lose all this weight

But it's so much on my plate every single day

They say the real ones don't last

I move fast

I'm just hoping I can crash in my pad on my path

On my way

I've been touched by an angel

My world's been turned upside down

I've been dancing with the devil while looking for heaven

Ain't too many real ones left

Just take a look around

I can see division

They don't wanna be together

On the top of my mountain standing strong

I just gotta hold on

Gotta keep my head up

I can't tread the water for too long

'Cause I worked too hard

Had to take a break

It was too much on me

And they gave me a weak cardiac

I took a chance on it

Yeah

Where are all my Earth angels? I need all the help I can get

I know this life ain't made for me

But this life I was born for is dangerous

I gotta make my mama proud and tell her I won't let her down

Gotta keep my head above the water even when I seem to drown

I gotta keep my faith when they tell me

"You ain't gon' make it out"

On the days they lock my business up

I gotta take a different route

Yeah

Gotta beat the odds every step I take

Tryna lose all this weight

But it's so much on my plate every single day

They say the real ones don't last

I move fast

I'm just hoping I can crash in my pad on my path

On my way

I'm on my way

I'm on my way

I'm on my way

I'm on my way

I'm on my way
