How It Goes

Sometimes things don't go how you want 'em to go
 And you don't feel how you wanted to feel
 But you still move along
 The world is gon' keep moving on
 And I know
 Remember when life was so easy
 Rhyming in cars, writing bars
 All I wanted was to be me
 Watching stars going hard
 Started out, no one believed me
 Never thought I'd make it far
 Negative energy feeds me
 Turned myself into a boss
 Knew that I'd find a way
 Never been thinking about the pay
 Can't let potential go to waste
 I had to starve to get a taste
 Never know what you can do 'til you try it
 Sharing my story, now people buy it
 On a commercial, but I stay private
 Aim for the clouds, I feel like a pilot now
 Sometimes things don't go how you want 'em to go
 And you don't feel how you wanted to feel
 But you still move along
 The world is gon' keep moving on
 And I know
 I know just how it goes
 The truth ain't always told
 I'm keepin' on the low
 It's coming soon, I know
 Yeah, they don't see life in my lens
 They just see trends; I wanna know when it ends
 People been telling me wrong
 Telling me I shouldn't make any songs
 But they be stuck in a regular life
 Complain in the week and waiting for weekends
 Everyone looking around for the wife
 I just been making sure I'm good in the end
 Never gon' depend
 I really want it myself, tryna get all of the wealth
 I'm not concerned about fun 'cause
 It'll come after the work is all done
 I'm thinking 'bout my tomorrow, not my today, only what follows
 I got the vision, I'm on a mission,
 I'm tryna tell all the kids, hope they listen
 Sometimes things don't go how you want 'em to go
 And you don't feel how you wanted to feel
 But you still move along
 The world is gon' keep moving on
 And I know
 I know just how it goes
 The truth ain't always told
 I'm keepin' on the low
 It's coming soon, I know
