#INTRO
When I was young and growing up
I was never happy
The only time I'm happy's
When I'm rapping on a sad beat
#VERSE
I know, it's kind of ironic
My flow, as hot as the sauna
My flow, as sharp as katanas
Open my heart, to be honest
I wrote this song, to acknowledge
#VERSE
My soul is broken and tarnished
I'm predisposed, to the darkness
I lose control, I'm an artist
I've got emotional problems
I hope I grow, from the traumas
Well, if I don't, then I promise
I'll put this gun to my temple
#VERSE
Like this shit is suicide
Motherfucker, this is do or die
You think I'm meant for a suit and tie?
This shit's like a noose, I'ma pull it tight
'Til my skin's blue, and thеn I lose my life
Or I fail in music, and you're provеn right
Take the bullshit, and move aside
It's abuse of the cruelest kind
I been scrutinized
#VERSE
Yeah, I'm used to that
Why the fuck, you think I'm doin' rap?
I could lie, and you'd assume it's fact
Have you listened to my newest track?
Nah, you probably knew it's trash
(But it is though)
#VERSE
Nah, I'm hella gifted
I'ma win though
For a little bit
I was in limbo
Makin' trash records
I'm the shit, though
#VERSE
I had a premonition
I'd be blowin' up
Like I'ma demolition
I was born a loser
I'm the definition
#VERSE
But I always knew
That I'd get recognition
For my records spinning
If I quit this
Then I'd get a second wind
Just like a dead magician
If you never listened
You should get proficient
Yeah, I bodied this shit
Like the head was missin'
I could never give this up
#PRE-CHORUS
By myself
I like it better, when I'm by myself
By myself
I like it better, when I'm by myself
I like it, when I'm alone
#CHORUS
When I was young
And when I grew up
I saw the world, for what it really was
When I was young
When I grew up
I saw the world, for what it really was
#VERSE
When I was young
I was full of optimistic dreams
I wanted to be a rapper
I thought, who else but me?
But when I started
Everybody, they just laughed at me
I never, ever had a team
But now I laugh
#VERSE
'Cause, I'm the one who's doin' things, that I like
Motherfucker, I'm blowin' up when I write
Motherfuckers used to laugh at me, when I tried
Motherfuckers used to tell me, I should go die, I
#VERSE
Kept my head up, I got better
I got big, and now ya' glad ya' met me
Now, you wanna be my buddy, and kick it
But I can't, I gotta go across the country and
#VERSE
Film some videos
With some artists
Maybe sell out
Mad Square Garden
#VERSE
There is no limit to how I'll be livin'
And if you're doubtin', I won't beg your pardon
I'll say, "Fuck you!", for doubting me
I got here all on my own
I am the only person, I need proud of me
Because of that, there's not a
Single person, who's stoppin' me
#VERSE
That's how I feel
I don't need no fuckin' record deal
I don't need no fuckin' engineer
I've done it all
I don't need no fuckin' outside help
People think they know me so well
Circle is smaller, I cut fakes out
It's just me, now
I do better, when I'm by myself
So, I'm always
#PRE-CHORUS
By myself
I like it better, when I'm by myself
By myself
I like it better, when I'm by myself
I like it when I'm alone
#CHORUS
When I was young
And when I grew up
I saw the world, for what it really was
When I was young
When I grew up
I saw the world, for what it really was
#OUTRO
By myself
I like it better, when I'm by myself
By myself
I like it better, when I'm by myself
I like it when I'm alone
