This powerful track delves into the harsh realities of life on the streets. The singer reflects on his past as a troubled youth, involved in crime and substance abuse, and how he was encouraged by his mother to change his ways. The lyrics reveal a struggle with breaking free from this cycle, despite achieving success ("touching the stars"), he always finds himself "back digging in the dirt". This could symbolize falling back into old habits or facing ongoing struggles despite progress. The song also highlights the motivation for change - not just for oneself but for loved ones too - as he mentions having a son and expecting a daughter. It's an emotional narrative about personal growth, resilience, and the continuous battle against one's past.
