Verse 1
This whole life's been a struggle
Started when I was younger
When kids would begin to huddle
And beat me up every summer
They called my mom a whore
'Cause she was the town stripper
Not knowing we were homeless
Just a year before Winter
And she was doing everything she could to provide
Just trying to survive with tears left in her eyes
I watched as she lost all of her pride in disguise
So I could go to school with new shoes as my prize
So I went to school and acted like it was cool
Like everything at home was great and played the fool
While my mom started losing control from the blow
Me and my brothers started throwing elbows in the road
Watched our life as it reached to new lows and I know
If I could go back I'd take control, get ahold
Instead I left, first chance got out of that town
Couldn't help anyone else when I myself was beat down
Chorus
I got the weight of the world sitting on my shoulders
There's no way you can bring me down
Baby I just soldier on like
Na Na Na Na Na Na
Weight of the world won't hold me down
Nobody gonna stop me now
Verse 2
Used to wet the bed, couldn't make it stop
Kids brought Super Soakers to school and shot me in the crotch
Followed me after class trying to steal my clothes
So I learned to stay at home, it was easier alone
In a zone with a pen gotta scribble these lyrics
You wanna be a rapper, here let me hear it
They're ripping up my notebooks, passing out each page
Posting them on lockers, copying each phrase
I'm tired of being laughed at, just let me run away
But there's no-one else to run to, I guess I have to face
Tough skin I learn not to phased
Remembering each name, I'll show you all one day
These voices aren't forever, they're loud as a truck
These walls are getting higher, my defenses are up
And I am getting stronger, it's making me tough
I grow hard to this world, I don't care about much
Verse 3
Now I'm not making excuses for the way that I've acted
I'm just hoping that we can move past it
I'm sorry for the way I behaved
And even more importantly I've learned and I've changed
Now I'm all grown up
And the seeds I've sown are all sown up
A crappy past doesn't give me an excuse
To take it all out on you
