they say this lifes what you make it
thats ironic cuz every move that im making
seems to leave me on this path in amazement
its like a maze, tryna figure what this maze meant
i know I gotta find patience
but sometimes its so hard when the rain hits
so what's missing? im my only competition
i need someone that'll listen to this voice 'fore it rages
when the rain falls, and the smoke clears
ill be right here, yea ill be right there
cause aint a thing upon this earth never I fear
and when the Lords on ya side, that be quite clear
but sometimes i just tend to stray
im so set in my ways, i swear ill never change
yea, but still i gotta find a brighter day
I know soon ima find a way, ay

[Chorus]
Im 10 ten steps behind
and im losing my mind
but i gotta find a way to make it, need a way to make it out
am i wasting my time?
Lord knows that im trying
still i gotta find a way to make it, need a way to make it out

[Verse 2]
still i feel helpless
i look around and for miles im surrounded
by all the critics, the naysayers and doubters
that got so much to say when they don't know nothing bout this
sometimes its hard to say selfless
concrete jungle got me feeling so grounded
its so humbling when everyone around ya
is telling you theres nothing that ur ever gon amount to
i got one thing to say to them
5 years down the road when im stadiums
lyric after lyrics, entire crowds is stating em
and you up in the crowd in sheeps clothing, watta cheap omen
so when I feel like the worlds coming after me
everything collapsing, looking like a catastrophe
just know i wont succumb to being a tragedy
but its gonna take the man in me, to conquer this insanity

[Chorus]
Im 10 ten steps behind
and im losing my mind
but i gotta find a way to make it, need a way to make it out
am i wasting my time?
Lord knows that im trying
still i gotta find a way to make it, need a way to make it out

[Bridge]
and i don't ever want feel this pain
I don't wanna do it all for nothing

and ima prove it til im dead or alive
cuz im ready to ride, got my head to the sky
but still i, i, i

and i don't want do it all in vain
im praying Lord please just show me something

see im praying that you show me something
right now, even though you dont owe me nothing
lets go!

[Chorus]
Im 10 ten steps behind
and im losing my mind
but i gotta find a way to make it, need a way to make it out
am i wasting my time?
Lord knows that im trying
still i gotta find a way to make it, need a way to make it out
