[00:00.00] "Look At How Far I've Come"
[00:33.79] Not a day goes by, I don't think to myself
[00:37.45] And remember the times there was no one else
[00:41.51] I felt so alone, there was pain that I felt
[00:45.47] Cause even self made niggas don't wanna do it by themselves
[00:49.52] I looked to the hills, someone's coming for help
[00:53.54] And he gave me the will when there was nothing left
[00:57.44] Lord knows that I tried, Lord knows that I cried
[01:01.56] Those nights I couldn't eat, had to swallow my pride
[01:05.56] But through it all, one thing remained
[01:08.53] I kept it real, I stayed the same
[01:12.03] And I made it through a lot of pain
[01:16.99] Had a lot of sleepless nights, but still I have to fight
[01:21.50] So I went and got up out the dirt
[01:24.36] When they told me it would never work
[01:29.58] And the bad just kept on getting worse
[01:33.04] Had to tell myself a few words from the heart
[01:36.84] Look at how far I've come and I'm here, y'all
[01:40.75] If you think nobody feels you, best believe I know
[01:44.27] Look, I can't turn back now when they've killed y'all
[01:48.52] And I can't pay all these bills, y'all, better know one thing for sure
[01:52.63] Look at how far I've come, even though I'm outchea stressing
[01:57.69] Still I gotta do my best and let it go
[02:00.14] So I can't look back now
[02:04.45] I gotta keep pressing on, 'til I make it, somehow
[02:09.91] I know some days you feel like giving up
[02:13.07] Feel like time is running out and all you have is doubt
[02:17.18] Tryna keep your head up, but you fed up, tryna stack your bread up
[02:21.49] Like how come the outcome of my income isn't dough comin'?
[02:25.86] No one is helpin', they just out for theirself
[02:29.76] Outchea tryna make a way, hoping there's a better day
[02:33.22] And when you think that you're done
[02:36.40] And the storm is raging
[02:38.72] Look through the clouds and you can see the sun
[02:41.57] Sometimes I know it's hard and life can have you stressing
[02:45.99] But you should count your blessings in every single lesson you've learned
[02:50.15] It takes hard work in getting up out the dirt
[02:53.55] But how could you know pleasure, if you never knew hurt?
[02:57.92] We all go through our share of pain, ups and downs
[03:01.68] For reasons that I can't explain
[03:04.09] But when it's all said and done
[03:09.24] And you think you've run as far as you can run
[03:12.92] Look at how far I've come and I'm here, y'all
[03:17.08] If you think nobody feels you, best believe I know
[03:20.43] Look, I can't turn back now when they've killed y'all
[03:24.60] And I can't pay all these bills, y'all, better know one thing for sure
[03:28.55] Look at how far I've come, even though I'm outchea stressing
[03:33.32] Still I gotta do my best and let it go
[03:36.43] So I can't look back now
[03:39.64] I gotta keep pressing on, 'til I make it, somehow
[03:51.04] 'Til I make it, somehow, I'm gonna make it, somehow
[03:59.23] 'Til I make it, somehow, 'til I make it
[04:08.14] So I know I can't look back know
[04:12.70] I gotta keep pressing on, 'til I make it, somehow
