krafty - holding myself back lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve gotta be honest, i’ve been holding myself back
putting myself on a pedestal, like n-body else raps
and so many dealt cr-p my way and i put up with it
must be tripping, i’ve been sipping on a huge cup of sh-t
it’s hard work, no handouts but they forget
see ’em out and about like “still ain’t made it yet?”
i guess all along i kinda knew it
if they expect me to do it alone then i’ma do it
about time i made a move, right? too right
so many have got theirs, it’s time i got mine
i’m not famous, nah, i’m not signed
been in the same position without a hogtie
life has been harder, i’ve been living wrong
the piñata, looking for someone else to pin it on
you mad at me because happily is how i have to be
carried the weight of the world and now it’s at my feet
sometimes it feels like they need to lay off
i tell ’em, one day, this’ll pay off
but people ain’t even believing, i guess they’re needing a reason
so i’ma work on my dream while they’re sleeping
[bridge]
for the longest time
this mountain was hard to climb
but now i know, oh
baby, only the strongest minds
will ever go and get on by
now i know, oh
[chorus]
i know now, i’ve gotta be my own man
and stop getting in the way of my plans
at the end of the day, i can only blame
myself for everything i didn’t gain
i’ve been pointing the finger for too long
and it’s about time that i moved on
[verse 2]
see i ain’t broken the charts
still they say my sh-t is fire, they’re just blowing smoke up my -rs-
people act amazed when they hear it, like it’s rare, what?
then the novelty wears off, f-ck it, their loss
i guess i really am in this thing on my own
some people came and went, i expect more will come and go
but in this life, there’s too many egos
so let your pride go the same way the egos
sometimes i feel like i’m failing at this
’cause the world don’t know i exist like alien ships
i guess that means i’m out of this world
it’s one thing to doubt me but i’m doubting your doubting as well ’cause
[chorus]
i know now, i’ve gotta be my own man
and stop getting in the way of my plans
at the end of the day, i can only blame
myself for everything i didn’t gain
i’ve been pointing the finger for too long
and it’s about time that i moved on
[bridge]
for the longest time
this mountain was hard to climb
but now i know, oh
baby, only the strongest minds
will ever go and get on by
now i know, oh
[chorus]
i know now, i’ve gotta be my own man
and stop getting in the way of my plans
at the end of the day, i can only blame
myself for everything i didn’t gain
i’ve been pointing the finger for too long
and it’s about time that i moved on
