Passion
Adrian Stresow Lyrics

Yeah, ain't at the place that I wish that I was
I'm not where I want to be in life

Sacrificing years I could be living it up
I'm giving up my time and opportunities to pursue my passion

But I'm never playing with ideas of giving it up
I'm determined and committed to my dreams despite the challenges

Giving my trust harder and harder they hitting me up
It's becoming difficult for me to trust others as they constantly disappoint me

You gotta go through a friend if we getting in touch
If someone wants to contact me, they have to go through a mutual friend

I already barely got the time and ain't givin' enough
I'm already busy and unable to give as much time and attention as people expect from me

They all wanna get up close like I'm given 'em hugs
People want to get close to me and benefit from my success

But then they wanna go ghost when I need 'em for stuff, damn
However, when I need their support or assistance, they disappear

I can't remember the last time that I slept well
I have been struggling with sleep and rest

But then again if I could then maybe I been failed
If I had the luxury of sleeping well, I might have missed out on opportunities

I gotta work for my food if I'ma be fed well
I have to work hard to earn success and satisfaction

No one really understands so they can't help
Others cannot truly understand my struggles and therefore cannot provide meaningful support

I'm back in it, they half in it I'm laughing at
While others are only partially committed to their passions, I am fully dedicated and find joy in that

All these wack ass rappers, I'm passionate, uh
I strongly dislike mediocre rappers and take pride in my own passion for music

They wanna be me or try to beat me, I'm fast with it
Others envy or compete with me, but I am skilled and quick in defending my position

My bros got me these hoes want me but that shit is
My friends support me, and because of that, some girls are attracted to me, but I see through their motives

Temporary as snowfall in the wintertime
These relationships are fleeting, like the snow melting after winter

And I ain't there at the top but I know I'm finna climb
I may not have reached the peak of my career, but I am determined to keep progressing

Pray to God I'm forgiven for every sin of mine
I seek forgiveness for any wrongdoings I have committed

And blessings coming they couldn't come at a better time
I believe that positive opportunities and blessings will come when I need them the most

Yeah, matter fact I gotta improvise
In reality, I have to come up with creative solutions

'Cause people telling me lies and looking me in the eyes
People deceive me and lie to my face

I gotta dip and get my busy minutes minimized
I have to prioritize my time and minimize distractions

I'm tryna live and do this shit all on limited time, yeah
I'm striving to live my life and pursue my dreams within limited time constraints

I swear I'm busting my ass
I am working extremely hard

My parents prolly embarrassed of me for cussing in raps
My parents are likely ashamed of the explicit language in my music

And forreal I'd be trippin to think that they'd understand
I would be naive to believe that they can fully comprehend and support my artistic expression

I grew up with everyone saying I can't
Throughout my upbringing, people doubted and discouraged me

Then went to college and skipped like all my classes
I attended college but neglected my academic responsibilities

Started writing classics
I began composing remarkable songs

Knew I could make it happen if I just quit holding back
I had confidence that I could achieve success if I unleashed my full potential

Dropped out, my family ain't know how to react
I decided to leave college, and my family was unsure how to respond

I knew what I could be before they ever had my back
I had a vision of my potential even before my family supported me

I don't know where I would be
I am uncertain about my alternate path

If I was scared to believe
If I let fear hold me back from pursuing my dreams

This shit was really for me
If I didn't realize that this is truly my calling

And I'ma go down as a legend when they burying me
I aspire to be remembered as a legendary figure in the music industry even after my death

I just knew I had to get it, no one carrying me
I understood that I had to achieve success through my own efforts without relying on others

I remember being scared and almost calling it quits
I recall feeling fearful and contemplating giving up

'Cause at the time I bet my mom could admit
Because back then, even my mother would probably agree

That I was awful as shit
That I was not good at what I was pursuing

Thinking every single song was a hit
Believing that every song I created was outstanding

But at school they used to call me a bitch
I was insulted and belittled by my peers in school

So I penned my aggression up in the songs
I channeled my frustration and anger into my music

I could rap on this beat for an hour long
I have the skill and endurance to rap on this instrumental for an extended period

Ain't nobody here like me so am I wrong?
There is no one quite like me, so is it incorrect to be confident?

Tell me who's a man like me to question God
Who am I, as a person, to doubt or challenge God's plans

If I get cut I bleed but I'm stayin strong
I may face hardships, but I remain resilient

Seems like now that's the only choice that I got
It appears that resilience is my only option

Tryna keep the peace as I see my enemies plot
I strive to maintain peace while I am aware of others plotting against me

Some days I can't believe this really my job
There are moments when I struggle to comprehend that this is my actual occupation

And I just bodied this beat now I'm signing off
I just delivered an amazing performance on this instrumental, and now I'm concluding
