Verse 1

My one sit back kick your feet up and relax flows

summer nights on the beach letting time pass flows
had a couple things to do, just got cancelled
so ima grab a pen and get to doing what I came for

Had a friend of mine, crazy mind, he always told me
Money only rules the lives of people who are phony
And dreams, are more than what they seem,

Are much more than a fantasy reality,
And let me see, I'm thinking all of this, and I'm acting other ways
Rather talk about the past, cus it's hard to change today

But if the efforts of today are just the triumphs of tomorrow
What would you rather have? This or a life full of sorrow
And tonight, I think I might,

just get it all of my chest and on the mic
I'm well aware of my shortcomings please don't come around me
working on swimming in pools of thoughts that used to drown me

I'm graduating, from the pity moving on to get it,
chasing my dreams so I can make them realistic
But before I get there, I got some contradictions here,

Some to things work out, some things I gotta repair

Chorus


I know I've messed, up in my life but I want you to know that I'm doing just fine,
I keep on doing what I gotta do, and from time to time, you know I cross the line

But I do what I can, so please understand,
I know you looking out, but let me live it first hand,


Verse 2

Understand me, that I can be,

Fully honest at times when people can't be
I'm not afraid to keep it real, I'm afraid to make a deal
Too many people act like homies but they all aren't for real

And there are fewer tomorrows than there were yesterday
So if you don't cut the ties you gon be tripping for days
been to so many parties, sipped on tons a Bacardi

different girl everyday, cus I was off in a hurry
then I started neglecting, and not accepting,
that doing that %#@! wasn't feeling how I expected

In hind sight, it's clear what I did,
Lost focus of my goals and priorities
Like my brother couldn't text me, but now I say we besties,

Kickin rhymes on the dock not carrying where the rest be
Its family, over everything,
Cus when I'm down and out they always seem to carry me

Is it messed up, that I messed up,
that I'm sitting here admitting that I messed up
Nah I get it man, nah I really understand

You're only trying to keep me from making mistakes that you have
But I'm a young man living life, not carrying what the weather the like
Cus even when I'm falling down you know I'm falling up a flight

I'm trying, to make the changes I need
To get me to all of the places that I know I need to be
So don't, hold it, against me hope you forgive

All I'm really trying to do is get a chance to live

Chorus


I know I've messed, up in my life but I want you to know that I'm doing just fine,
I keep on doing what I gotta do, and from time to time, you know I cross the line

But I do what I can, so please understand,
I know you looking out, but let me live it first hand,


Outro

I know I messed up...but I've acknowledged it.

And I'm doing what I have to today, to make the changes for tomorrow.
Always. No matter what, I always bounce back.
Just let me live it though..let me make my mistakes.
