Lyrics
I know what it's like to wanna give up
I understand the feeling of wanting to give up
I know what it's like to not feel loved
I understand the experience of not feeling loved
I have been down that road before
I've been through that difficult path before
Trust me lil homie i was close
Assuring someone (lil homie) that the speaker was close to giving up
I have had talks with myself
Reflecting on internal conversations and struggles
Like should i do something else
Contemplating whether a different path should be taken
Like is it worth it
Questioning the worthiness and value of the efforts
I know we all got a purpose
Acknowledging the belief that everyone has a purpose
But why the hell haven't i made it yet
Expressing frustration at not achieving success despite giving the best
When i gave everything my best
Reflecting on the dedication given to everything
I know everything has it's season
Acknowledging the cyclical nature of life
But this music is the reason im still here
Affirming that music is the motivation for continuing despite challenges
I was born in the trenches
Describing a challenging upbringing in difficult circumstances
And raised by a queen
Being raised by a supportive mother
She did everything that she could
Recognition of the mother's efforts to support dreams
To support my dreams
Highlighting the strength found in the family bond
We didn't have much but we had each other
Emphasizing the unity among siblings to overcome challenges
Me and my brothers can make
Believing that familial support can withstand difficulties
It through the weather
Navigating through tough times with family
It was hard losing you
Expressing difficulty in dealing with loss
But i know you are doing better
Acknowledging the belief that the departed is in a better place
It broke my heart when i got that call
Heartbreak upon receiving news about a challenging situation
But i had to keep it together for you
Committing to keeping composure for the sake of others
She did'nt want to tell us but she knew
Mother's reluctance to share difficult news, but understanding the necessity
Backs Against the wall trust me we all fall
Acknowledging that everyone faces challenges (backs against the wall)
Gotta get back up
Encouragement to get back up after a fall
Back up back on your ground
Reiterating the importance of standing firm
Gotta give it some time
Stressing the need to give time for recovery
You gotta believe in yourself
Encouraging self-belief as a crucial factor
I know it ain't easy but who Said it was
Highlighting the challenges of life and the difficulty of success
Go and get what you want
Encouraging proactive pursuit of desires
I know, i know what it's like to be there
Acknowledging the understanding of what it's like to be in a difficult situation
Trust me i know
Reaffirming the speaker's awareness and empathy
I know what it's like to be scared
Knowing the feeling of being scared
Believe me i know what it's like to not have
Acknowledging the experience of lacking support
Someone in your corner
Understanding the emotions of feeling overwhelmed
What it's like to feel like you had enough
Recognizing the feeling of reaching a breaking point
Trust me i know, i know, i know lil momma
Reassuring empathy towards a female listener
I know, i know, i know lil homie
Expressing understanding and empathy towards a male listener
I know, i know, i know
Repeating the acknowledgment of understanding
What it's like to here you're not good enough
Knowing the experience of being told one is not good enough
Trust me i know
Reiterating the speaker's understanding of challenging experiences
