Lyrics Skeleton Ave - Lil Revive

Let me just be honest
Yeah

You underestimate the moves that I been aimin' for
If I really did it all for you, what would you take me for?
So let me take you back to the days, before I ever got paid
Back in 2015 when I was minimum wage
I was workin' at a theater, just moppin' up vomit
'Bout a thousand views for every single tape I was droppin'
Used to tell myself If I didn't make it by 25
I'd slit my fuckin' wrist, man I'd commit suicide

I had nothin' but a hope and a dream
I work my shift and get back home then I just write like a fiend
Editin' Lex's videos, swear I thought that was my peak from there-
My only motivation was to burst through the seams
Droppin' out of college, couldn't go the normal route
Parents started flippin' out
So I went and flipped the town
Dropped my first album Blessed one, makin' 7k a month
But no matter what the value was it never was enough

See I been runnin' every day of my life
Traumatic childhood, it makes it hard to sleep good at night
And it never goes away regardless of what I buy
Nah, It never goes away regardless of passin' time

But fast-forward 5 years and this is bigger than I ever could imagine
8-figure conversations on my quote, shitty rappin'
'Bout a million streams a day without a single label backin'
So imagine when I pick one
Swear that day will be so tragic for every single person that been doubting me
Got way more to prove then addin' numbers to my salary
See this is my legacy, this everything that I breathe
And I don't care what they been tellin' me
Believe it when they see

This is carvin' "the greatest of all time" upon on my gravestone
You'll hear all about it on "You're Not Alone"
