They try to take you down
It's just too high to reach it
Your talent and your skills
It's just too hard to make it
When it comes to improve yourself
They just don't wanna compete
It's easier to let you fall
But I won't let this get to me
It's not what it's supposed to be
This just will make me stronger
The envy and the jealousy
It's eating them alive, I see
It happens when you ain't what you wanted
(Chorus)
And now I will show you what I've been through
While you're seated in the front row of my huge show
The time you wasted trying to make me stop by
Pretending to be fun to be a failure
'Cause now I've got what I wanted
All that I needed
It was just a road needing its pavement
And all my life I've been trying to figure out
How to find my way
Here it is
They're gonna be so mean
With their big, loud opinion
It's easier to criticize than stand an go for the dream
They're gonna wait forever
For what will never come
A hope full of lies
But I won't let this get to me
It's not what it's supposed to be
This just will make me stronger
The envy and the jealousy
It's eating them alive, I see
It happens when you ain't what you wanted
(Chorus)
And now I will show you what I've been through
While you're seated in the front row of my huge show
The time you wasted trying to make me stop by
Pretending to be fun to be a failure
'Cause now I've got what I wanted
All that I needed
It was just a road needing its pavement
And all my life I've been trying to figure out
How to find my way
Here it is
And here it is
Here it is
Here it is
(Chorus)
And now I will show you what I've been through
While you're seated in the front row of my huge show
The time you wasted trying to make me stop by
Pretending to be fun to be a failure
'Cause now I've got what I wanted
All that I needed
It was just a road needing its pavement
And all my life I've been trying to figure out
How to find my way
Here it is
