Jsteezzy & 16raheem - FIND ME (feat. Syl Messi)

How can I live up to expectations expecting greatness
Perform live on the stages while quoting lines from the pages in my notes app
While steady climbing to the top where all the goats at
Feel like I'm off season cole I'm so close to that
Like we related inna sense
While I rap bout dark past and how I kept my innocence
Inner peace from pieces of greedy ego who wanted more
Picturing my canvas work the paint like I was 34
I don't come from rich family we all grew up poor
More or less cause less was all we had and all we could afford
Member times when I was little in back seat of grandma Ford
And she told me god within me means my momma raising lords
Cause a sinner I was born
Family Ties already torn
And niggas doing baby mommas dirty like this shit was porn
See I grew up in environment survival wasn't taught
But was shown through the actions of the actors playing fraud
Talking Instagram tuff guy you pussy up in real life
He fluffy on the outside yet inside he soft
How to be a Twinkie talk
All his clout was just store bought
Following the same trends
Russian bot you should called
All the fakes play the real butt inject no tummy tuck
If you could move around the weight you wouldn't need no fucking help
Cause every body wanna carry
Every body play the ref
But in life no black and white
We all are grey like Saba said
Damn Don't how much of it to believe
Cause all I've seen was the darkness
And all I've been was deceived
Always grew up making wishes
All the stars aim at me
I just wanted to come home to place filled with peace
Reason why I fight so hard
Cause I remember vividly the feelings being young Jalen
How that shit used to be
Getting bullied on the daily begging someone to help me
When left me for dead when it awoke in my mind
That nobody gonna save you
So why ask em' to try
I doubted god but I still kept my head in the skies
Cause if I fall too the world will I ever arise
If I am destined for greatness why failure clouding my mind
I'm tryna live out my dream but doubt before I try
I'm shouting out clever verse for help I bawl and I cry
I'm drowning deeper in madness my message should show you why
Call it an even exchange
Sacrifice that dream life so I can live to be great
And grow high into fame hoping my mind stay the same
And I don't the magazines make me blow out my brain
I've through realest of pain mental strength I had gained
And every single demon came with some wisdom they gave
My age is just 17 yet I've seen more than elders
Gotta carve out my legacy generational welder

You gotta paint yo canvas the way you wanna see it
I cant work for no boss cuz I'm too high to riot
Lotta y'all don't do the learning you too fly to try it
Ask me in fifteen years that a be why you dying
I Lost weight pounds and grams had to change my diet
And I ain't talking bout the european types
Your opinion is your opinion it's your right
But that don't mean that you're right
Agree to disagree we not gon fight
You don't have the same name as me then
We do not share that plight
Mental health vacation in LA
I'm bout to take that flight
I can't bare myself to live with lies
I had to make it right
I went through a tunnel but the light it always stayed in sight
But maybe I'm built different how I keep going
I can't tell people how to keep going
When I ain't knowing what they brainstorming
Man is it wrong if I hold them up to my standard and they ain't meet it
Gotta vision of a master plan but i'm too young man I cant lead it
Had to keep growing
Dave Chappelle last time you seen someone punchlines this good
And they ain't comedic
When I get higher I'm a modern genius
Get introspective
In my thoughts get big reflective
Either I'm smart or Im super slow can't call it gotta triple check it
I was always learning what the love about
You was always focused what the hate about
Tryna find sum new to debate about
Tryna gain the clout that's a lamer route
A lotta y'all fail to realize I don't give a fuck bout the norm standard
Jealousy it lies in ya eyes boa that compliment was so backhanded
I been grinding for some years just to get nice enough to be recognized
Seen the homie DJ caught up bout life had a full circle moment
Always proud of the journey never no hate can't forget the love component
Been knowing he was going to the league since we was like eleven - nine
Moving up the next level nah
Apologize how my mind drifting
I be wondering what heaven bout rip Pop smoke I'll tell em bout
How they hate til you die giving out the flowers when they start decaying
Hate visualizing death all the bad scenarios are replaying
Don't even wanna be speaking the personal part of it
Come from the heart of it
It make me bend never break like some cartilage
That be the hardest shit
Pain in my starter kit
But I'm really in the present living in it
I'm really independent everything I'm doing man I really did it
Can't watch someone else go and live it
You gotta put the time and grind to work and learn something
I was somewhere getting money I ain't go to homecoming
You either in it or you not going
Me I get real cryptic with the wisdom like I was stock growin
I forever have pain that I'm not showing
One six

If you looking for me you gon find me you gon find me
It's all lonely at the top don't remind me don't remind me
I'm all alone yeah
If you looking for me you might find me
