Hero in You

• Written by 

I'm on that retro shit, with an old school gameboy
Always been player one, but now I got my first homeboy
And it's confusing, like shit changed when there was no time to be home by
Now I'm out here just doing me on my own time
An any real crazy shit, or obstacles you come by
Are just another fucking boss fight
An let me tell ya, I'm glad my niggas got a controller too
An he's not just another NPC rolling through
Cause we're taking life daily, breezing through as easily as level three
Virtually unmatched, our intensity is hard to beat
Without really trying, made a mark on the street
And if I don't leave your pride crying, feel free to holla at me
Cause I don't know what you've heard, but I'm by far the realest emcee
Discard that disbelief, an ask any mother fucker you meet
I do my best, and in return there ain't a soul that won't vouch for me
But I'm worried, I thought I had my demons beat
An now they're in my ear asking for the drivers seat
And sometimes when they pressure me it's hard to breath
And through this glass it's hard to see
But luckily there's a real nigga looking out for me
He'll help me out if I slip, and find myself weak
An it goes without saying, anyone whose got me
They can expect the same
Cause this roads treacherous, and you never know
Where you're destined for poverty or fame
But you won't see that stop me from playin
No retries, you've only got yourself to blame
For all the wasted time you spent dwelling on painful shit
You can't even do nothing to change
Living by the moment, some small losses, but more gain
Hold up.. Let me wash this line before it stains
If I left it this dirty it'd infect your brain
But Simply put, you and your thoughts are not the same
If it's yourself you're tryna find, the last place to check is your mind
It's in your actions, and what you do out of sight
But I get it, it's ain't always easy to stand by the light
These days even your own mother would sell you out if the price was right
And homies can change on a dime, and just cause
Take the time out their day to turn you in, without even asking for a penny
And now you're stuck, drowning in the Henny
I'll give you a lesson in fake friends but it's up to you to study
One second you'll have it all
The next you'll find yourself at the hands of your inner circle, battered and bloody
Old friends laughing, no love lost for you buddy
But take it in stride and hit the ground running
Be real, an never let them catch you frontin
It's amazing how things change when you livin one hunna
You'll find its a lot harder to fall when you was brought up on something, honest
And you're always pleasantly surprised when someone keeps a promise
So stand up and prove your values weren't found just for you to lose
And you'll find its much more than mountains that you're bound to move
Like those few golden hearts that are solid through
Waiting on a worthy voice to make them do what's right
Since the dawn of time it's been the closet fight
Grossest war of inches raging through the night
And it's all been waiting for you
So pick a side and make your move
Quit hoping someone's notice you
Even the legends were human too
And don't sweat, even the greatest get confused
Notice every word has rang with truth?
Just stay on your grind and don't be surprised to find the hero in you
