Songtexte +1 - haemby

All my life I had to always find a way to fight the rules
Even if they were on my side, I know someone would twist their use
I've watched the way that people think and I learned how to trip their fuse
I started caring bout the way they saw me
Although I didn't want to

I was mixed in a pot of fake and real
And I was left outside with a tainted seal
Was never the type to express my feels
So, I'd play all day in that busted field
I work hard for me and i get no passes
Playing my part like I was gonna do magics
Second shortest in the 5th grade classes
But yet I'm on top of all they asses

I work at a place for long damn days
With no damn breaks, yea my feet ache
What can I take, with almost a case
Yea, all of that for minimum wage
Can't swim through life, I was left to drown
All my problems are lost, then found
I never expected nothing from me
But somehow I still let myself down

I remember running round these steets, it's as if the world was mine
Laughing with my neighbors, asking favors on my bike I'd ride
I'd show them the tricks I learned and when I failed, at least I tried
But, now I sit alone at home because now all 3 have died
I remember being thrown on the concrete at a football game
I wasn't playing, caught the ball, 1 person thought to catch the shame
I remember being kicked and pushed and shoved when my gym class passed
That's the reason why sports in 2015 was my last
I've done so much in 19 years that it just hurts to look back
All the fam and friends I've lost haunt and roll me off the track
All these people saying I ain't got the guts to make a stack
So, now I sit here thinking about all the things that I lack

Hold up, wait a minute
Y'all can clearly see that my tale ain't finished
Have y'all never seen how a patient gets back up after their stitiches?
I took a second and i thought to write down all the times that I got flipped
And when I get back up again Imma add a +1 to those lists
Im rising like the Phoenix, but I ain't never been to Arizona
I guess you could say I'm switching lives way more than that girl, Fiona
I'm way more fun at parties now, I'm better than that bitch Corona
All of that while I'm still in class steady getting at this diploma

Thats a +1 as I realize that I am the shit
And that's a loss for you, as you can see
We ain't even close, get off my toes
We ain't equal
Polar opposites, ridiculous
While you throwing fits, I'm getting rich
When I walk in, you start to twitch
Someone call Kim cuz thats the sitch
I started out at 3AM watching cartoons on nick at night
I'd be so lost throughout the day though, im always just picking fights
And now I'm here, I'm getting ready to hop off of my training trike
But yet I'm still here walking around and just hearing all y'all yell like

When you gonna stop?
When you giving up?
Bitch, I ain't never gonna stop so hop off of my jock
Imma lol 2 feet infront of your face
And imma smh when you catch this mace
I know I'm sick, like a COVID case
And you should kys if you invade my space
I don't know why you never listen like you lost it in a strike
You're over there thinking bout my head on a pike
You're crazy for thinking I gave a shit like sike
So imma thank you for the confidence to live my life

That's 132, that's 238
Y'all could never understand the lessons I made
I built a wall against y'all back in AV
And imma use it for my fortress in FSC
Been set on my life ever since I was 6
Had others tell me otherwise ever since
Had a fallout with the Army so that was a miss
Only one i care for now is that knife from the Swiss
I've been climbing mountains ever since I was young
All you were ever taught was how to hold your tongue
You're name should be Gus cuz you ruin the fun
My battles ain't done, so don't think you've won
I've fallen many times in the battle of life
But it only matters now how I get up and fight
Yea, all these phony problems are out of my sight
Yea, it only matters now I choose to rewrite

I took a second and i thought to write down all the times Ive been flipped
And when I get back up again Imma add a +1 to those lists
