DeLorean Freestyle by Tristin Dare Lyrics
[Verse 1]
People wanna point fingers and they wanna poke fun
But they ain’t got a clue what I came from
Get a lotta hate, yeah but I hold none
Cuz I know that God is the one and only true judge
Let me take you to a time when I was down bad
Raised by a single mother, I ain’t ever have a dad
We ain’t have a lotta money, yeah we had to bust ass
Momma kept it pushing tho, we ain’t ever fall back
Everything we built up, broke down fast
Cancer got a hold of momma and my whole life crashed
Had to make decisions about where I was living if she passed
Had to grow up quick, I had think fast
Everything was different
Felt like I was going down
Hell opened up
I was falling through the ground
I was hoping God would come and pull us out
We were waiting for the rain, tryna get up out the drought
I would wonder what I was even praying for
When I said had enough, I’d always get more
Down bad at the lowest of lows
No pain no gain, yeah that’s how it goes
I ain’t see it at the time, so I locked myself inside my room so I could try and hide
Depression started kicking down the door
And I couldn’t stop crying
I did everything to block it out it, but it kept on trying
Didn’t wanna believe it, I never wanted to see it
Till everything was broken and I had pick up the pieces
I had to find a way out, that’s what I really needed
Had to find a way out, so I ain't get defeated
Always knew that I was different
Never knew that I was gifted
When I started writing bout all of my feelings everything inside my life started switching(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I started flipping my problems just like gymnastics
I started turning all my wounds into wisdom like it was magic
Found myself a way up out the dark wit a little hope and some matches
I rose up to my feet and started making things happen
Went and dropped a song and the whole town loved it
Went and dropped more then I really started buzzing
Made it to a show, sold tickets, packed buses
Went and got myself up on the map got some fans bubbling
Made it to the lab, I was there with Geek Beats
We were making heat, errybody else sleep
Platinum selling artists telling me that they can’t wait to see what I’ll be like at 23 cuz I’ll be living my dream
Played in front of thousands over the years
I got this inside the bag, lemme make things clear
People hating doesn’t make me sweat
I don’t know what it is that you just don’t get
This is hard work, dedication, lotta planning, lotta patience, 4 years in the making
Lotta time up in the gym
Lotta time inside the basement
Lotta people hating
Lotta people saying that I’m never gonna make it
I just take it on the chin then I keep on going
Just me inside the boat, so I keep on rowing
I got no problem dealing with pressure
What you consider to be heavy
I can lift like a feather
I'm always getting better
I went straight into the storm, in the harshest of weather
I stay fighting with my demons till they head severed
If you wanna win you gotta go through failure
Only Ls lead to Ms, y’all should really know better
People wanna point fingers and they wanna poke fun
But they ain’t got a clue what I came from
Get a lotta hate, yeah but I hold none
Cuz I know that God is the one and only true judge
Let me take you to a time when I was down bad
Raised by a single mother, I ain’t ever have a dad
We ain’t have a lotta money, yeah we had to bust ass
Momma kept it pushing tho, we ain’t ever fall back
Everything we built up, broke down fast
Cancer got a hold of momma and my whole life crashed
