Self
Cales Lyrics

Yeah
What I got to do
Aye
I remember being a kid
Eating ramen drinking kool aid
From the fridge
My momma out at work
So I was chillin with my friends
I never really knew what I was getting myself into
Growing up with no dad Life really wasn't that simple
My mom was always mad
My sister never happy
I'm the only man in the house
So they both are coming at me
Now that's a lot of pressure
When you feeling alone
Surrounded by all your family
But don't feel like you home
Like why wasn't I made to flex
What's it take to gain respect
How come I can't lay and rest
Why am I confused
Thinking what else can I do
Seem like everything is falling through
And all that stuff bout trying isn't true
Defined by all the lies they make of you
Like you a fool
You need to move
If they ain't living yo life
What you got to prove
Huh
Yeah
But I just focus on me
I've been through too much
To give up on my dream
I can't keep holding myself back
From what I know I can be
It's time I show the world
How much I know that I can achieve
I was kicked out
And I had no job
Shit I was on my own since like eighteen
Living with my friends was my main thing
Had to struggle through the dirt
Until I became clean
That's why I'm self made
Don't need nothing from nobody else
Just got to keep workin'
I don't care if I end up by myself
Just like Lil Baby
I'm the one who never needed no help
That's why I lock my shit away
Collecting dust on the shelf
Finally found a way out
Think it's time I grow
All this suffocating
Just don't feel the same no more
Yeah
Just don't feel the same no more
All this suffocating
Just don't feel the same no more
Like why wasn't I made to flex
What's it take to gain respect
How come I can't lay and rest
Why am I confused
Thinking what else can I do
Seem like everything is falling through
And all that stuff bout trying isn't true
Defined by all the lies they make of you
Like you a fool
You need to move
If they ain't living yo life
What you got to prove
Yeah
Thinking what I got to do
