16raheem - Make it Count Lyrics

My homie ask for my advice on how escape the cycle
You know the cycle the one make people suicidal
The one that you cannot escape with weed or psilocybin
Cycle of your parents tryna hold you back from being final
Now one thing ima tell you is coaches never play
My life could be so fucked up behind the curtains
But as far as I'm concerning Ima guide you in the better way
Nothing like these false prophets got you led astray
Sometimes perseverance and endurance
Is the only thing you need to have when
You can't find a better way
And I know tommorow might not be different than today
But all this pain is experience and giving mental age
And only strong will persevere I know that's easier said than done
Sometimes it's just a thread that you be holding on
But that thread is just evidence of a different cloth
Your time is coming keep on going strong yeah
It's a war inside my head
I can't get up out my bed
And lately all i think about is how I'm gonna make it out
Moments gotta make em count
Too late for a different route, 30 in my bank account
I just gotta make it count
Why the ones you hold the closest got the sharpest of knives
Why the ones you hold the highest tell the ugliest lies
Don't count your bread in front of no one
Jealousy is real it's human nature
Learning not to envy is a skill listen
Ain't no such thing as overnight success
On the road to success there's overnight stress
There's procrastination and fear of finding failure
And no destination and way overthinking
But the best thoughts come from no hesitation
Drive myself crazy for hoping for better still waiting
Go out chase your dreams, don't let them chase you
Don't let it haunt you it could have been you
All up on the stages
All up on the pages
Dreamers held back by they fears and their ages
You never too nothing, to ever get something
Your fate is on you will you ever quit hustling
But let me be clear
I never started rapping for the money
I was only rapping cause i actually love it
So only if your intentions are pure
Then keep on working
For your pain your ascension is cure
It's a war inside my head
I can't get up out my bed
And lately all I think about is how I'm gonna make it out
Moments gotta make em count
Too late for a different route, 30 in my bank account
I just gotta make it count

My homie ask for my advice on how escape the cycle
You know the cycle the one make people suicidal
The one that you cannot escape with weed or psilocybin
Cycle of your parents tryna hold you back from being final
