DAWG! These Reddit competitions keep getting better and better! This time around, I got matched with the amazing Mister Salmon (@user-319249476) for this absolute BANGER - the theme for this edition was "having a talk with your past self". A fuckin' cake walk for me 'cause I got A LOT to say to my inner child. No cap... this might be my favorite song I've ever done. Completely unexpected. I hope y'all enjoy it as much as I do!

LYRICS

[Intro]
keep your head high (head high)
gotta keep your head high (uh huh)
gotta keep your head high, gotta
x4

[Hook]
keep your head high for them blessings in the gray
‘cause sometimes, it’s sunshine in the rain
I know it seems hard dealing with them cloudy days
just know it gets better, keep it pushin’ through the pain
gotta keep your head high for them blessings in the gray
‘cause sometimes, it’s sunshine in the rain
I know it seems hard dealing with them cloudy days
just know it gets better, and never change a thang

[Verse]
they diagnosed me with depression in the seventh grade
was probably fine but they weren’t used to children of my shade
they gave me every anti-depressant that you could name
put me in counseling, but really, it ain’t help a thing
they had the nerve to teach us drug resistance education
yet every day creating addicts all around the nation
I went from making honor roll to in and out detention
which had them questioning my supervision
all of a sudden, DCF start coming around and asking all these questions
like “where you mama at?”, and I ain’t have the slightest guesses
I didn’t tell ‘em, but she had been gone for seven months
and left me stuck in a family she ain’t never want 
but I just bottled my emotions, dealt with ‘em alone
homies knockin’, I just acted like I wasn’t home
took me twenty years to love again
If I could talk to that younger me, I’d help him understand, gotta

[Hook]
keep your head high for them blessings in the gray
‘cause sometimes, it’s sunshine in the rain
I know it seems hard dealing with them cloudy days
just know it gets better, keep it pushin’ through the pain
gotta keep your head high for them blessings in the gray
‘cause sometimes, it’s sunshine in the rain
I know it seems hard dealing with them cloudy days
just know it gets better, and never change a thang

[Verse]
back in the days when I was young, I’m not a kid anymore
but if I could have a talk with that lil kid again
I’d let him know it’s nothing wrong with being different
don’t worry bout whether or not you fit in with your friends
be vigilant of where where you are and who you choose to follow 
that girl you live that mean the world won’t be around tomorrow
don’t let nobody count ya pockets, in the end, you’re all broke
them road trips can wait, one day you’ll live in Colorado
remember when you thought your pen would have you poppin’ local?
I got some news for you buddy, yo, we took it global
even opened up for Jadakiss and Styles P
if you don’t hear it from nobody else, I’m proud of me
I know you’re young and full of cum, but take care of ya body
even if it means you gotta miss a couple parties
and most of all, keep your bond with your kin
If you don’t remember nothing else, I hope you part with this, gotta

[Hook]
keep your head high for them blessings in the gray
‘cause sometimes, it’s sunshine in the rain
I know it seems hard dealing with them cloudy days
just know it gets better, keep it pushin’ through the pain
gotta keep your head high for them blessings in the gray
‘cause sometimes, it’s sunshine in the rain
I know it seems hard dealing with them cloudy days
just know it gets better, and never change a thang

[Outro]
keep your head high (head high)
gotta keep your head high (uh huh)
gotta keep your head high, gotta
x3

keep your head high (head high)
gotta keep your head high (uh huh)
gotta keep your head high

Lyrics:
I don’t wanna go until I leave a legend
Don’t wanna die but really I’m just tryna be in heaven
It’s hard to try when inside my mind it just gets depressing
I took too many Ls god why I need all of these lessons
I feel the pressure building I gotta blow up
How they gonna know the kid if ion show up?
How I’m gonna feed my kin if ion go up?
And don’t act like you one of them if you ain’t show love
Ain’t too late just know it’s gettin to crunch time
Lot on my plate been starving but now it’s lunch time
I just can’t wait I know that I ain’t got much time
Left in a day so I’m grinding until the sunrise 
Rap alumni but I been reincarnated 
It’s hard to argue when you see what all my heart makin
I’m saying think I came from another generation 
My skills innate to the way I been thinkin
So imma keep on doing me and giving y’all what’s real
And imma make it extra clean so you can see it clear
I know that I can’t never leave with all my people here
That’s why I been chasing my dream to get em outta here
I gotta make it to the top it’s where I’m meant to be
I got a message from the lord I swear he sent for me
Told me be patient together we’d create history
And make a lot of enemies but know I got a friend in him 
Give ‘em raw rap show em where your heart at
Only real facts ain’t got time to ball cap
Said ain’t no cash buy happiness tryna solve that
The music make me or break me gotta evolve fast
Gotta evolve past the past to move forward 
I give these songs as presents I hope you don’t ignore em
Been tryna live in the moment but I’m exited for the day in the future maybe they’ll see what I’m doing for em
It’s all love when I hop on beat 
And all hope that the music help you like me
My pen run when I give it some ink
But it could all go away in a blink
Just lemme know what you think…

Die A Legend
