Just Me (Be You)

Lyrics

[Prod. by TK] [Verse 1] Had my heart on the floor I finally picked it up I found the cure to my life because I was sick of stuff Sick of feelin' like I'm livin' without a purpose I hop up on the mic and pray to God that you heard this See this is me, I'm just a chill young dude, smokin' on weed Don't judge cause I will not budge this what I need I need you to open up, stop holdin' on to this front Cause my own expectations are higher than what's in my blunt Yup, yup, I got pressure on my back again Nowadays I'm just hopin' I can laugh again My mentor got me feelin' I can rap again So I can bring balance to the Force like I'm Anakin Rap is dying, it's now the Walking Dead Don't need to do nothin' stupid I'd rather talk instead I'm tryna use my voice to give knowledge to the youth Have a purpose when I step in the booth [Hook] Baby I'm just me You just gotta be you You just gotta be true Always do what you do And I'm just me You just gotta be you You just gotta be true Do what you do [Verse 2] You said you love my passion Knew that every word I was sayin' I wasn't actin' Dropped my soul in the booth for you to pick it up I hope you hear me out, better yet I hope you listen up Life is a hell of a ride But it's what you make of it, hope you can handle the night When you in ya room, lights off, you can barely decide On the thoughts inside ya mind, is it wrong, is right? Look in ya heart, do you see Heaven or Hell? We all prisoners, cause we just stare at a cell Open up ya mind you got ideas to sell Let ya heart speak for you, it got stories to tell Don't be afraid of your potential You here for a reason I know that you're very special And just remember in this life Whether you think you can or you can't, either way you right [Hook] Baby I'm just me You just gotta be you You just gotta be true Always do what you do And I'm just me You just gotta be you You just gotta be true Do what you do [Verse 3] I used to battle depression, hope I never have to fight again Finished my probation I can light again Gotta get my money up, pockets on empty Life is movin' way too fast it almost left me Who you gon' be when the smoke clears? Who you gon' see when you have no tears? Who you gon' help when they fell down? To anybody I let down, I hope you forgive me I know I'm hell bound Damn this is what they warned me bout So much pressure on my shoulders, almost wore me out 2015 wasn't the easiest Lost a lot of people on the way, this is the realest shit Best friend ain't here now Got me bout to shed a tear now I built up, I can't tear down If things happen for a reason make it clear now Got caught with weed, I think I see it now 500 bucks later now it's back to this paper Back to the people who been waitin' for me, who all been hatin' on me To all who (*fake whispers*) but never say it to me I'm here to be the change that you probably need My knowledge equivalent to a lot of weed Garden of Happiness got a lot of seeds A better man is what I gotta be, it's what you gotta see Don't be me, be you Be the best you could possibly be, be true If I ever helped you wit the words that I speak Thank you for bein' the student I'm happy to teach Class is in session for the other people Dedicated to helpin' the helpless I got a story to tell, I'm hopin' to tell it I'm just real with myself, and I'm glad that you felt it
