I was on my own at eighteen
After I lived with my dad and he 
Gave me the chance to go to school for free
Had a car, roof and food
Got it taken from me
It was the best feeling when I got the chance to leave
Kicked out at age eighteen
By your own father what's that supposed to mean
Was there no love cause that's how it seemed

Had to figure out where I'd go
Mom came to the rescue with an old new home
Home is where the journey begins
I started alone
It was me vs the world so how could I win
Drowned in the pain
I couldn't swim
Wanted what the kids had
Jealousy's a sin
The harrassment was as simple laughing
And I wanted that segment to end

And I 
Used to walk to the old home after getting bullied at school like nah
Pouring rain couldn't get a ride to school
It was too far cause my ma had no car
La la la la
I could be better than pa 
Every night would kneel and pray to Jah
Couldn't see where I was going
But I knew in the end I would be going real far

I would be going far
I would be going far
I told myself
I would be going far
I would be going far
I would be going far
I told myself
That I would be going far
I would be going far
I would be going far
I would be going far

Just graduated at eighteen
Supposed to have the world at my feet
They told me anything that I could be 
But they're tryna keep these kids in the streets
Raise the temperature higher degrees
Education and certifications
Stay panhandling at the train station
Shackled and chained in our modern day prisons
No days to vacation the world is still changing
I'm just daydreaming
And I'm just day drinking
Day by day rent paying
Wake up to the heads on the tv
Wash my face put on my dirty work tee
Splash some Listerine in my best fake smile
Gotta show my boss that I'll go the extra mile
But I still gotta shop in the discount aisle
And I still gotta live like I'm in denial
I don't wanna count the years and discount the cost
I just wanna be with the ones I love before they're lost
Lemme get my money's worth before I get tossed
Middle finger to the system
That keeps us at the bottom of the steps
F*ck the ones that think they know what's best
Did my K through twelve for a slip of paper
Don't wanna keep doing nine to five's till I meet my maker
F*ck being a pawn coach put me in
I'm a player

I would be going far
I would be going far
I told myself
I would be going far
I would be going far
I would be going far
I told myself
That I would be going far
I would be going far
I would be going far
I would be going far
