Yeah

I used to lay awake in bed until the morning light

Fantasize about my dreams now they come to life

It's been over a decade but damn I still remember

The night I dropped my first song

and felt this breath of life

I started writing down my story, I could fill up pages

Thinking maybe if I'm lucky I'll perform on stages

I wanted it so bad, I didn't even feel nauseous

I poured my heart out to the world when I couldn't face it

Every setback I received I swear has made mе stronger

I wouldn't trade it for the world, not a singlе dollar

I know God's been preparing me for so much greater

'Cause I just found out that next year I'll become a father

Y'all really been with me since

seventeen in grandma's basement

When I was broke and y'all was sharing me with inspiration

His humbleness, he more than music on people's skin

A message I know gon' stick around when these numbers fading

I took this further than anyone ever thought I'd go

new band it's oh so

Hated my delivery but wanna slay it's delicious

Start to run the pick and roll, can't trip the flow

My pain game is PSA tennis, all original

the underdog, the up and comer

Ten years since SwaggyTracks, post Dakota summer

Made all these hardline fans, I made a couple brothers

A group of sinners with broken souls who found each other

It's made me better since I stopped tryna please

everyone but me

My only focus now is when I'm gone

When my message leave, my circle smaller but I promise you

That we thick as thieves

I probably wouldn't be alive today without that true belief

I'm just so grateful I ever got the chance to share my heart

I lost myself for years in my 20's, it tore my life apart

I'd spend my last dollars to record them sleep inside my car

Some people think they know me

but they've never seen my darkest scars

So, shadowed everyone who stepped beside me through the rain

Through the process of me growing up

I wish I'd do the same

Took some highs, took some lows

But we did it all together

I'd be lying if I told you I don't think that this is fate

So, shadowed everyone who stepped beside me through the rain

Through the process of me growing up, I wish I'd do the same

If I had the chance to do it twice

There's nothing I would change

Cause the purpose found in music was worth every bit of pain

Yeah

It was worth every bit of pain

I did it man

I did it

I honestly didn't think I was gonna finish this album

Been going through a lot of personal stuff

a lot of life stuff

Just been spiraling man, tryna, tryna say the perfect thing

I wanted the perfect ending

I wanted the perfect story, the perfect project

Just put so much pressure on myself and would

write something and scrap it, write it, scrap it

And then finally, a couple weeks ago I was like

what am I doing? I'm sucking the meaning out of this

I'm losing the meaning of it

I'm trying to make it perfect

but nothing has been perfect in my life, you know

I'm not perfect, my career isn't perfect

why should my art be perfect?

It's funny that I can get so close to

these songs that I'm making that even

I can lose sight of, of the meaning

I started thinking what's so special I think about

about my career, about this whole

More Than Music movement is that a lot of you

guys have literally grown up alongside me

From the depressed, angry, you know

17 year old kid all the way to the soon to be father

30 year old man that's speaking to you now

All the good, all the bad

all the less than the highs, the lows, everything

You guys have watched me go through it all

We've gone through it together and I think that's just a

It's something I'm forever grateful for

If you've been to a show, you've heard me say this, you know

When I was at my darkest moments

my lowest moments, I felt like I had no one

I started putting it all into these songs

and it led me to you guys

And you've had more of an impact on

my life than I think you'll ever know

I've spent countless nights on my phone reading

messages from people who've been to hell and back

And they still got fight, they still got joy and

And it was my music that helped them get through it

And I'm just, I'm humbled man

I'm so humbled

I don't deserve it

I'm not the best artist, the best singer, the best rapper

I just try to put things

that are on my heart into these songs

And the fact that people relate to it is beyond belief man

I got so much gratitude

So as I, I close the chapter to

this liminal phase of my life

I just want to say man, I've learned a lot

I'm taking all these lessons with me

all the memories with me

It's been the journey of a lifetime over the past decade

And I got all of you to thank

So I just want to say one last time, much love

I will see you guys all very soon on the internet

at a show, somewhere

In whatever's next for my life

And one last time I want to say

More Than Music, forever

Forever

I love you guys
