I will remember who I am
I will fall back down
But ill get off the ground
I won't back down now
No
I will fall back down
But ill get off the ground
I won't back down now
No
No,no,no
Ugh
Yeah its Rome
Got alot on my mind
Hear me out, hear me out
Check it,
Feels like yesterday
Waking up, Christmas morning
Boy I couldn't wait
To go under the tree and see what presents santa brang
Then I found a big ol present on it had my name
Santa got me a guitar, and since then my life changed
I swear i loved that thing
Played it every single day
Playing in my room pretending I was on the stage
Singing in the mirror fantasizing about the fame
Even back then I knew that
Little rome was gonna be great
And I made it happen
A sophomore in high school when I started rapping
Begging kids to listen to my music
They start laughing
Handed out my mixtape
And all they did was trash it
I just wanna take this time to say thanks
Ya'll fueled a fire in my soul that you cant tame
Hope you see me rapping now
And it makes you think
Never doubt a young king when hes on his way
Rome was't built in a day
Yeah
Check it
This one here for all the sheep
That ever told a kid to stop believing in their dreams
2 years ago I went completely broke
I left San Marcos
Moved in with my folks
5 years of college was useless
Got a degree
Never did use it
My life was a joke
2017 was really hard for me
My Nana had a stroke was having seizures every other week
Developed Alzheimer's so when I came to to greet
It was hard to see she didn't even notice me
That moment really made me weak
I started to feel the depression coming
Its in that moment you find out who really loves ya
Calling all my friends In return I sadly got nothing
They would only hit me up when wanted me to do something
So I cut those friends off and I wished em well
Had To push my music hard, no more taking L's
1 year later I bought a house with nobodies help
If that don't tell you gods alive and well
Look inside my soul
You'll find Emmanuel
I will remember who I am
I will fall back down
But ill get off the ground
I won't back down now
No
I will fall back down
But ill get off the ground
I won't back down now
No
