I was wishing on a star, no money on my card
No, electric in my house, thinking how'd it get this hard
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly
I was wishing on a star, no,money on my card
No electric in my house, thinking how'd it get this hard
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly fell apart
When Karl died, things fell apart
Trying not to think about it but I know I can't
And all this time I ain't seen mum
I was in the same clothes for like 3 months
Smile on my face like nothing's changed
Tryna get to studio, bunking trains
On the inside I wanna quit
But the music helped me stay positive
And I wanted it
Cause I've been waiting
Like when's it gonna be our time
I'm getting impatient
Homeless, I had to leave my house
What's the plan Cause I need it now
Contract for only 3 grand
I nearly signed that cause I needed out
Nah, I weren't thinking
Whole world on my shoulders
Sleeping in the studio, me and Krept cramped up on a sofa
Me and Suge on that one bed gon' pop and tell
We don't care if they ain't got us cause we got ourselves
Cause they don't care bout you' til you sell records
I put the BET next to the world record
I was wishing on a star, no money on my card
No electric in my house, thinking how'd it get this hard
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly
I was wishing on a star, no money on my card
No electric in my house, thinking how'd it get this hard
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly fell apart
Me and Kones stressed out, sitting in a car for hours, thinking how we gonna make it
We done Otis, they thought that we faked it
Radio wouldn't put us on the playlist
We left the road for the music
But music weren't paying at all
Now we're too bait for a job
Thinking to hit the streets and risk it all
The new me saying is it worth it
The old me saying it's cool
But if I get arrested
And let the fans down, I'd be a fool
The industry never rated or liked us
One label had the cheek to say
Put a singer in the group then they'd sign us
Are they taking the piss
All you AandRs didn't wanna rate, cool
Mixtape top 20, no label
Now we're getting the respect we deserve
Now there's an offer on the table
Ain't saying no names but
Couple DJs didn't wanna know
Didn't wanna help when we were on a low
Now it's congrats, can I get you on the show
Some rappers still hate, even after how far we've come
Put so much at stake, couldn't even get a well done
But that don't matter to me
As long as friends, family and fans are happy for me
All the ones from the start
That helped put me back together when I fell apart, yeah
I was wishing on a star, no, money on my card
No electric in my house, thinking how'd it get this hard
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly
I was wishing on a star, no, money on my card
No electric in my house, thinking how'd it get this hard
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly
I swear I nearly fell apart yeah, nearly, nearly fell apart
Red room with the lights low, laying on my windows
I decided, I decided
Dreams of a high life, cameras and bright lights, oh
I decided, I decided
We are the lucky ones we are we are, we are we are
We are the lucky ones we are we are, we are we are
Cause we are the lucky ones we are we are, we are we are
We are, we are, the lucky ones we are we are, we are we are
We are the lucky ones
We are we are the lucky ones
