Make Somethin' Of Yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Look-look-lookin' out the window

Thinking 'bout the *******t I been through

Not that other *******t I told you

But the *******t I never get to

Used to smile for the camera

Always make it look so simple

Sometimes just keeping it together

Seems so ******* monumental

What if, what if, what if crash and I burn

Maybe I got caught up in teaching

And forgot how to learn

What if I let down all my friends

And all this music *******t just ends

And everything's about to fall apart

Just like my father says to me

But my mama say I'll make it

She said, "Boy, you gon' be the greatest"

So part of me, will I become a monster

I'm giving everything I have to offer

But right now, it feels do or die

Gotta make it out alive

Gotta pay the price that it costs to

Make somethin' of yourself

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 get back

I guess it all appeared a facade

And that's right around the time

I stopped believing in God

Started believing in myself

Like I don't need no one else

And whether it was right

Or wrong at the time

I swear that *******t really helped, it did

But all I know is

How to keep it moving

They try to stop me, I keep pursuing

I'm moving up like hallelujah

So part of me, will I become a monster

And overcome everything I encounter

But right now, it feels do or die

Gotta make it out alive

Gotta pay the price that it costs to

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin' of yourself

Make somethin'

Please just let me make it

Please just grant this wish for me

For granted, I won't take it

I need to make something

(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 something (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 something(Make somethin')

Some kind of difference

I know I got it inside me

I just hope you'll be my witness

I'm gonna make somethin'
