[00:10.89]
[00:12.69]Nobody said it was easy
[00:18.42]No one ever said it would be this hard

[00:26.79]Oh take me back to the start
[00:30.52]In middle school
[00:31.45]I wanted to be a DJ
[00:33.28]Made my first mashup and kept that shit on replay
[00:35.92]Wanted to rap so I got a mic for my bday
[00:38.74]Uh I made some money just by selling shit on ebay
[00:41.57]Haha yeah I recorded tracks in my closet
[00:44.49]On the USB microphone with a couple socks on it
[00:47.47]Put a new track up and got a couple people watching
[00:50.29]Now thousands of people anticipate when I drop shit
[00:53.04]
[00:53.66]Asking for feedback
[00:54.76]Posting shit on forums
[00:56.24]99% of people would see my posts and ignore 'em
[00:59.12]Music was my hobby that just started out of boredom
[01:01.94]Writing down my feelings and I would just record 'em
[01:04.81]I made business cards and kids ripped 'em up
[01:07.98]I spent an hour of my time trying to pick 'em up
[01:10.92]So if you down on yourself thinking 'bout giving up
[01:13.76]Look at me now man this isn't where I pictured us
[01:16.21]
[01:17.63]But it's where we're at

[01:50.35]I didn't leave the house for days
[01:52.06]Uh I withstood a substantial amount of hate
[01:54.55]

[01:57.34]
[01:57.91]Yeah uh I tried hard to keep my head up
[02:00.84]Haters knocked me down but I knew I had to get up
[02:03.77]Overcoming struggles boy I was constantly fed up
[02:06.50]Got my umbrella 'cause
[02:07.61]I knew that the rain wouldn't let up
[02:09.34]
[02:09.92]Constantly was told that I need to grow up
[02:12.34]Then I did my first show people came
[02:13.97]And they showed love
[02:15.27]No name a year ago in a sense then I've blown up
[02:18.23]Girls was embarrassed to be with me so we broke up
[02:21.34]Uh but I didn't let it get to me
