Prelude To Greatness Lyrics

Will they sing about me when I'm gone
Will they judge me for the shit that I was doing wrong
Can I put my heart inside of every single song
Will I pop a couple pills 'cause I wasn't strong
Will I give all of my money to the family
Will I see 'em in the front when I win a grammy
Maybe I just figure that'll compensate
Want the world and I didn't even graduate, damn

Insufficient funds, so I never spend it
All the times that I was typin' but I didn't send it
She really took a likin' to my older self
I was hidin' like a shadow, never show myself
Didn't know if I was makin' all this music for the money
Now I fuckin' need it, that question soundin' funny
I'm tryna stay single 'cause I feel like no-one love me
I feel I'm slowly sinkin' and nobody's ever coming
I'm tryna make a difference, I'm tryna face the demons
I'm tryna see that everything is goin' for a reason
Maybe I should read a book, try to rediscover
This shit ain't how it looks, and I'm searchin' for the others

Will they sing about me when I'm gone
Will they judge me for the shit that I was doing wrong
Can I put my heart inside of every single song
Will I pop a couple pills 'cause I wasn't strong
Will I give all of my money to the family
Will I see 'em in the front when I win a grammy
Maybe I just figure that'll compensate
Want the world and I didn't even graduate, damn

When I look at what surround me, seeing somethin' mystic
Going through the funk of life like I shoulda missed it
When I make 100 grand, they gon' say it's luck
But I'm workin' for the fans til I see the sun
Had a lot of rainy days, how did I survive
I'm just tryna turn the page on that part of life
Was believin' in myself when I really wasn't
Now I had a stranger say that I'm the up-and-coming
Take it back to my first rhyme, reminiscin'
Writin' with the pen on my first line, now we gettin'
Plays around the world, it's my time, never let it
Slow me down, feel like I'm on a climb forever now

Will they sing about me when I'm gone
Will they judge me for the shit that I was doing wrong
Can I put my heart inside of every single song
Will I pop a couple pills 'cause I wasn't strong
Will I give all of my money to the family
Will I see 'em in the front when I win a grammy
Maybe I just figure that'll compensate
Want the world and I didn't even graduate, damn

I'm workin' from the mud, was hurtin' from the love
Now that bitch is jealous 'cause I'm comin' for the funds
Pussy or the commas, it's really fuckin' simple
I'm tryna make a wave so I started with a ripple
Feel like I'm the voice of all the outcasts
All the people who assumin' they will never last
I was feelin' just the same, then reality check
So I got my shit together, now I'm bound to be sick
I'm bound to make a mil, let me show my mama
That her dropout son becomin' what he wanna
Used to feel like I'm a failure, now I got the game in check
I'ma do this independent, never cut me a percent, let's go
