I make it look easy
Like I made it overnight
I make it look easy
But you don't see the dark side
All of the monsters
I have to fight and
All of the nightmares
Made me stronger than life
Y'all say (What?), I've changed (Huh?)
Really, though? (Tell me), how so? (I got)
Got all (What?), this bread (Yeah)
I'm still (What?), sour though (Huh)
I don't know, I'm a square peg in a round hole (Yeah)
Like a block of cheese in a paper towel roll
Rocky Balboa, never been no (What?), towel thrower
Even when I got kicked to the curb (Yeah)
Life knocked my d!ck in the dirt
I got back up, flipped it the bird
'Til I earned the attention I yearned
Not to mention, I learned
How to turn resentment and hurt
To an unquenchable thirst, in the simplest terms
It's revenge of the nerd, in every sense of the word
But all you see is the fame and the millions
You don't see the strength, the resilience (Nah)
How I rack my brain but it feels as if I'm tryna explain it to children (Damn)
So a lot of this pain isn't healin', you're escapin' at this angerous feeling
Almost like recreatin' a feelin' of 9/11 when the second plane hit the building
So let 'em paint you the villain
Some of this just may be a symptom (Yeah)
Of havin' way too much income (Mm)
But when you struggled every day just to get some (Yeah)
Now all of this hate is a syndrome (Yuh)
When they can't relate, and that stems from (What?)
Money lookin' like it grows on trees
Yeah, they're green but those aren't leaves (Leaves)
Sufficed to say, with every sacrifice I made
It's like I gave up my life to fame
All the nights that I lied awake
Nights I stayed up to write and pray
Had to claw, scratch and fight my way
Just follow me, and I'll light the way
Look to the hook if your sky look grey (Skylar Grey)
And rappers, how can we be on the same level now?
When I gotta look down and see these clowns that are on the ground
B!tch, I got the clouds beneath me
Ever since I put out the EP to the height of 2003 me
You ain't see the struggle to make it out the D because I made it somehow look easy
