letra de my way up - jon protege

i’ve been on my way up
and i knew since day one that we’d arrive
let ‘em know that we ain’t done
if we’re all just passing by then if we collide
i’ll make sure they don’t forget me
i know good things need time
and all i ever wanted was to make something of myself
one thing i can promise they ain’t ever felt the way that i felt
and i used to think that i might
get to live in the highlights
but my world can get so small
i’ve been tryna get minе right

i’ve been tryna get mine right

my big brothеr got me into rap
wanted to be just like him so bad
thank dad for everything we had
learned the worth of a dollar when i was missing that
family room, pictures on the wall
remind you who you were, how it was before you got here
constant motion i hope you don’t get lost
all i’ve ever done is follow my heart
shouldn’t be that hard to find
everything changes but we’ll always be who we are inside
and i’ll go the distance
from my m.o to my magnum opus i do it like no one’s business
from wanderl-st to that homesickness on this path of most resistance
and they won’t know what hit ‘em
‘cause the inspiration i preserved
for when they weren’t encouraging
imagine if they give me those words i’d probably rule this world
and you know i’m, still doing this music of mine
put every other plan to the side
so if you ain’t for real then don’t you ever waste my studio time
but there’s gotta be so much more than this though
and if i don’t wanna go outdoors i could at least open up a window
they said i can’t do it all on my own
that isn’t being responsible, used to say
momma don’t smother us so we’ll grow
and i’ma stand up to a bully even without my bro, ‘cause
i’ve been on my way up
and i knew since day one that we’d arrive
let ‘em know that we ain’t done
if we’re all just passing by then if we collide
i’ll make sure they don’t forget me
i know good things need time
and all i ever wanted was to make something of myself
one thing i can promise they ain’t ever felt the way that i felt
and i used to think that i might
get to live in the highlights
but my world can get so small
i’ve been tryna get mine right

i’ve been tryna get mine right

i had to make it out of that house
put my city on the map now
when you give it your all there’s no greater feeling
than when it all comes back around
and they say success is the best revenge
but don’t keep looking across the fence
when the grass is only greener where you water it
and that’s why you’re not content
i had to conquer, unless you’ve got a lot to offer
then they won’t holler, but don’t even bother
with those that don’t have to deal with the consequence
they didn’t know what i’d be
watching from the sidelines
and my lucky shirts were so ugly
thinking what they diss me for
is gonna be the same reason they love me
forces at play i can’t say
those visions weren’t just a day dream
peer pressure and bad influence made it hazy
but that’s part of the wisdom that made me
so i wrote them dope rhymes, i just let it all come to mind
now they wanna quote my lines
now they wanna come around ‘cause i’ve got my own shine
i’ve been doing the most i even stole a love that wasn’t mine
to realize the only one i’ve ever known
was coming from me the whole time
and i know feelings change
but it’ll all fall into place when i’m in my zone
and we gon’ miss them days
they’ll remember the real me when everything’s at stake, ‘cause
i’ve been on my way up
and i knew since day one that we’d arrive
let ‘em know that we ain’t done
if we’re all just passing by then if we collide
i’ll make sure they don’t forget me
i know good things need time
and all i ever wanted was to make something of myself
one thing i can promise they ain’t ever felt the way that i felt
and i used to think that i might
get to live in the highlights
but my world can get so small
i’ve been tryna get mine right

i’ve been tryna get mine right
