Lyrics
Yeah, yeah, go
My family yellin' at me, I'd be proud of you kid
For what you have accomplished throughout all these years
Made a promise to my mother that I would get rid
Get rid of all the energy and fake friends
Fake friends, fake love, like that's not new
I got my ex-girlfriend suckin' up the whole crew
I used to cry about it every day after school
And that shit made me hopeless, wanted to drop out of school
I picked myself up from the bottomless hole I said, yo, bro Jeffrey, are you good in control
And that's the day I realized the best of my soul
I'm my own best friend, yeah, I'm playin' both roles
The best of my ability, I'm honest, contradicting everybody
So annoying, my anxiety started tickin' I used to do the craziest shit for attention
Even my own teacher realized my depression, My teacher back in eighth grade told me something
That has stuck with me don't be somebody different, 'Cause that shit
Can end up ugly And honestly, I'm speakin' from my own point of view
I wonder who'd I be if I never met you
I'm thinkin' from a very high, bird's eye view
I still can hear my parents yellin', "We proud of you!"
They worried thinkin' bout my future and what I'll pursue
'Cause the music I've been makin' don't seem to get these views
My brother James died, man, rest in peace to you
Got shot at 16, you would've graduated too This life of mine got me thinkin' hella, hella
Blue It's just hard sometimes, man, school ain't easy too
I handshaked with my principal, he gave
Me my diploma He whispered to my ears, said, I'm proud of
You, kid And mentally I'm sayin', am I really proud
Of myself
'Cause I've been through quite a lot, I don't deserve this at all
For many contributions, I came to the conclusion That these paragraphs and essays were just
An illusion My generation are the last of the people that
Were doin' online education during COVID causin' shootings
It's crazy to not think that my time is over But wait until you see me rule the earth and
Take over I've been sittin' all alone, writin' songs
Since October I ain't wastin' any time, 'Cause my time is
Gettin' closer, closer to the end I've been losin' many friends, spiritly, mentally
I pray to God like, amen Yeah, I'm proud of you, kid, for all the shit
That you did In these four years, I've been seein' a kid
Turn to a man Yeah, I'm class of 23, off to get my degree
To cop a 911 off the lot with the key And I promise to my mother once again,
I'm thanking, That you didn't give me up at the age of 15
Your son is now a millionaire, airin' on TV Bought a house up in the hills, I can see the
City The whole world yellin', Jeffrey, yeah, we
Proud of you, kid lets just see where my life takes me, will just have to see then, yeah
