I have broken wings
I keep trying, keep trying
I won't give in
I'm dying, I'm dying
I have broken wings
I keep trying, keep trying
I won't give in
I'm dying, I'm dying
I set my foot into the game
I tried to find my way
Since 7th grade I knew that this was my only muckin' way
Put my heart into this rhythms
Put my soul out on that page
So I stopped doing basketball
And started being on stages
My grades started dropping
And I started rolling daily
Marijuana odor was the only thing I knew
Mixed with passion and music
That's what helped go through
I got my back against the wall
And I'm asking you for help
Without music in my life
My life would be a living hell
Really I don't even have the fuss to make it happen
And it sucks
But I know if I can just keep it up
I have enough support from you all
To stand up and walk tough
But for me, I see the life
And I'm never gonna stop
'til the day that I die
I have broken wings
I keep trying, keep trying
I won't give in
I'm dying, I'm dying
I have broken wings
I keep trying, keep trying
I won't give in
I'm dying, I'm dying
I'm lookin' at my broken wings, at my scars
I never thought I would get this far
I gained passion and made art
My homie told me you'll never make it
I never listened
I kept going on
People told me no education means blank space
But with dedication I swear to God I'll be celebrating
I'll be on high level
That's for greatness
I ain't never give a damn about what people say
I just do this cause I got nothing else
You would know that there is truly nothing else
And this trying
I'll try again
I never stop
I just pretend
I need a pen, a pencil path
And from there I 'll show you anything and everything I am
Take a look
This is me
And I ain't got no other plans
I have broken wings
I keep trying, keep trying
I won't give in
I'm dying, I'm dying
I have broken wings
I keep trying, keep trying
I won't give in
I'm dying, I'm dying
I have broken wings
I keep trying, keep trying
I won't give in
I'm dying, I'm dying
I have broken wings
I keep trying, keep trying
I won't give in
I'm dying, I'm dying
