elijvh - the m lyrics

[verse 1: elijvh]
i feel like i’m in a place
where i don’t know where i’ll go
i know i gotta pace myself
but i just move on so slow
i see my goals and opportunities, they’re right in my face
yet i would lose some confidence as i would live in this place
where people laughed at all my dreams
and say id never go far
that sh-t was getting to me
like it was leaving a scar
i knew that being who i was
growing up i would get it
cause i was not black enough
and all the asians would mention
that i just don’t belong
no i do not belong
and all that negative energy had me caught in this web
of feeling unmotivated in a personal sense
so i was hiding insecurities of how i would look
change the way i would dress
and write my plans in a book
i have decisions mapped out
maybe i’ll get it in time
my brother told me that the world is yours
so get it and shine

[hook]
but where am i going?
i just want a better life before i go
i’m taking my time
i know i’m alone
but baby you know i can’t stay still on this path unknown

[verse 2: elijvh]
reflecting on my old past
of where i wasn’t that serious
of living life, i was living fast
i tried to write up different songs
and things that mattered to me
like quoting lyrics from illmatic to the low end theory
to be a n-gg-, or an asian, whatever people called me
i had a guy question if i had an identity
so here i am, questioning who the f-ck i would be
as i would care less in school, and feel like i was in need
of things to inspire me, from life experiences seen
but nothing got me through living better than music to me
i told my momma i had dreams of giving her the life that she wants to see
working two jobs, as my dad struggled as recession started
i know i had to be a man, i had to plan out how i could get them out though
so i studied the game
i made beats and things and now i feel cut out so
i’m taking better direction
i’m always making mistakes
pardon my faults as exceptions
i know i can carve out my lane
so everything will make sense
gotta get in time, though
gotta hustle for the ends
like i came from the bando
can’t get the bare minimum
n-gg- going commando
reflect on mistakes
and move on as the days go
i think i’m understanding my own worth
when i was adamant to kick the curve
maybe this journey is what i need
for understanding my own sanity
i know that my path has my losing things
but i gotta move forward, i’m getting me
it’s hard to think
but i’ll take on this chance on this road i see

[hook]
but where am i going?
i just want a better life before i go
i’m taking my time
i know i’m alone
but baby you know i can’t stay still on this path unknown
