They told me to use my head
And I banged it a thousand times
Use the entrance through the window
When everybody wants to shut the doors on you
Always remember who leaves and who stays
When everything else is gone
When only the troubles remain
When this anxiety gets even stronger
And it'll just want to drag you down
Just think you're the strongest
And what doesn't kill you won't f*ck you anymore
I never let trouble get the best of me
Even if the nightmares were often while awake
Sometimes I let mom down and it wasn't nice
But she sees me on video, she's proud and I feel better
Tattoos on my arms help me use my brain
They remind me of half the damage done as a kid
Initials of my loved ones on the hands I'm winning with
I don't know where I'll go, but I know where I'm from
And even when everything around stays dark
And here feels like a cell with me inside
I stay calm, bro, one day it'll be different
One day we'll take all of this
They told me to use my head
And I banged it a thousand times
Use the entrance through the window
When everybody wants to shut the doors on you
Always remember who leaves and who stays
When everything else is gone
When only the troubles remain
When this anxiety gets even stronger
It'll just want to drag you down
Just think you're the strongest
And what doesn't kill you won't f*ck you anymore
And how many times I've been alone
With two joints, two Marlboros
Only myself, without them
Only the rhymes, without a job
And Charlie told me, believe only in us
Okay Charlie, I'm doing it
Not like these who believe in us
Only now that we're making it, no no
Life's knocked me to the mat many times
I've always gotten back up stronger
Without feeling the blows, what I have
Is just a louder voice that
Who don't have the strength to speak
A thousand hassles, a thousand worries
With the instinct you have
To make money and you know that
Recklessness in Nike shoes
They told me to use my head
And I banged it a thousand times
Use the entrance through the window
When everybody wants to shut the doors on you
Always remember who leaves and who stays
When everything else is gone
When only the troubles remain
When it's only you left
When this anxiety gets even stronger
It'll just want to drag you down
Just think you're the strongest
And what doesn't kill you won't f*ck you anymore
