I'm trying to make my ancestors
Proud of my damn efforts
Pushing my limits to somewhere that you just can't measure

I gotta temper I'm someone that you just can't lecture
I see you cave when they watching I like the damn pressure

If I gave up on it all
Would you come and sit by me to watch it fall
War with all the demons and I got my weapons drawn
But the worst one that I'm dealing with is fucking cortisol
Still in awe like

I been here before like deja vu
Swear I been here a familiar kind of view
Last time coming up I had a lot to prove
And I could turn back, but now I got too much to lose
Deja vu

It's deja vu
Yeah
It's deja vu
Yeah, yeah
It's deja vu
I could turn back, but now I got too much to lose
Deja vu

I've been here
Going through
So much to prove
Must be deja vu

I been caught up in a cycle now it's on repeat
I just try to make it through and stay up on my feet
Life without the struggle would be incomplete
I got demons, but I still make money in my sleep

I been living on a different planet
I dipped out, but then I got stranded
Guess that's what I get for showing up and being candid
Met a couple labels, but they canned it
Oh yeah turns out I'm manic
I'll let the cycle keep on spinning till I understand it

If I gave up on it all
Would you come and sit by me to watch it fall
War with all the demons and I got my weapons drawn
But the worst one that I'm dealing with is fucking cortisol
Still in awe like

I been here before like deja vu
Swear I been here a familiar kind of view
Last time coming up I had a lot to prove
And I could turn back, but now I got too much to lose
Deja vu

It's deja vu
Yeah
It's deja vu
Yeah, yeah
It's deja vu
I could turn back, but now I got too much to lose
Deja vu

I've been here
Going through
So much to prove
Must be deja vu

And if you were to question if I ever gave this all of me
I ain't got regret in my body so no apologies
I broke the rules that were given, but still got God in me
I been here before, but I'm still at war and now I can see

It's normal to question the reality of your own existence
Gotta think for yourself and tell em to mind their business
Don't need advice, I'm leading now with my intuition
It's deja vu, but I'm recognizing it's my decision

I've been here
Going through
So much to prove
Must be deja vu
