[Chorus: BG]
I been workin' everyday just to make a way
So I can be alright
All you other people hate, but don't relate
But y'all don't realize
All these people don't want war
They just wanna be left alone
Do the things they learned on they own
So they can do the things they want
I been workin' everyday just to make a way
So I can be alright
All you other people hate, but don't relate
But y'all don't realize
Thinkin' 'bout the hard times, thinkin' 'bout suicide
But that's not how to ride 'cause you gotta stay alive

[Verse 1: BG]
(1, 2—) That's not how I want things to go
Gotta get it, gotta get it, 'cause you know I'm 'bout to blow
But that's not how my lifestyle goes
Gotta struggle everyday goin' down this road
I don't ever take a break like a Kit Kat
Stand back
You sayin' that you know BG, but you don't know me, goin' down these streets
'Cause I'm movin' on cruise control
And I don't care about the hate no more
'Cause people change in their life, road range
But you gotta be free
Be who you wanna be and follow your dreams
And watch and we'll see
'Cause you never know
Gotta keep it on the move, so you never lose
And I always do the things that I gotta do
Oh, I've been feelin' like I'm out of control
Been caring 'bout things that don't matter no more
I don't know if I gotta make a change
But I know I gotta make it some way

[Chorus: BG]
I been workin' everyday just to make a way
So I can be alright
All you other people hate, but don't relate
But y'all don't realize
All these people don't want war
They just wanna be left alone
Do the things they learned on they own
So they can do the things they want
I been workin' everyday just to make a way
So I can be alright
All you other people hate, but don't relate
But y'all don't realize
Thinkin' 'bout the hard times, thinkin' 'bout suicide
But that's not how to ride 'cause you gotta stay alive
[Verse 2: Brandon Carter]
You can never compare
You can never lie and say you were there
Why I feel like everyone is not here?
I'm just askin' questions that you don't care to answer
Looking for a way, tryna help myself
You would let me lose faith
You would flee the aftermath for your sake
Why's there voices tellin' me that you ain't really who you seem to be
Ain't got clue where I'm carryin' onto
I'll crash again, where this leads to?
Does it take me back again?
Crumbled patches, rigged cracks in 'em
Brittle gnashes, I've been lastin' some time
Brightest future, but all blacks in it
I didn't [hoose] this life by accident
Got a love, a deeper passion than
You’d think I do, yeah, you laughin' and
I paved a way, and y'all just stomp in it
I'm tryna lead, no one's following
Makin' moves, accept the consequence
Guess I got a grave that you'll spit on
I worked to get here
What have you done?

[Chorus: BG]
I been workin' everyday just to make a way
So I can be alright
All you other people hate, but don't relate
But y'all don't realize
All these people don't want war
They just wanna be left alone
Do the things they learned on they own
So they can do the things they want
I been workin' everyday just to make a way
So I can be alright
All you other people hate, but don't relate
But y'all don't realize
Thinkin' 'bout the hard times, thinkin' 'bout suicide
But that's not how to ride 'cause you gotta stay alive
