## Lyrics

You and I we've been through a lot together

And I look back and I just uh, I appreciate all the times that we had together, you know?

I remember just going down in my room and

You know down, and trying to deal with some things

And you have always been there for that

Always, just me and you

You and I've been best friends, ever since I was a young kid

Everything we did, where has time went?

Got a lot of years coming up ahead of us

And ever since we met

I knew we'd get somewhere

But the fact is I ain't really, I ain't really know when

I ain't really know how we'd do, but I can feel the goose bumps my skin writing

Now I've been waiting for the moment

You and I can make it happen

Lot of people think we ain't gonna make it rapping

I ain't got a problem with em though, they don't even matter

We ain't looking for the people tryna say that we the baddest

No I never liked that, came a long way, never did it for the money

We ever make it big, I'ma give it to the family, looking back now everything is looking funny

You and I in the room writing, up late when the mood strikes us

We don't care if they do like us

Writing songs for the haters we ain't even got yet

Freestyling somebody turn the mic up

Talking bout things we don't really understand

Talking bout things we don't really comprehend

Me and you tryna get it, we ain't quitting till the end

Now I'm standing on stage tryna give it to the fans, yah

We took that karaoke machine from my room

And ah, we put it up to my CD player and played instrumentals

Man we've come a long way

A long way

I made a lot of mistakes

You've been there for the whole thing

Help me with the drama

Rapping in the car outside daily

We don’t care if it’s the winter

We don’t care if its the summer

I remember writing raps with the curse words

I just wanna hear it

It seems like everybody does it

Did it for awhile wasn't into all the cussin'

Trying to find who I was

Being everything I wasn't

Real life yeah

Gotta lot of anger

You know where I'm at

Put it all of it in the pages

And wrote it into raps, said that we could be amazing, if I give us a chance

Now im lookin round like yeah, look at where we at?

Look at where we at now, we ain't made it yet but they can here us in the background comin'

Some are gonna hate it, some are gonna love it

I'ma put it in his hands and let God do the judging, yah!

Remember me and you always had you in the backpack

Took you into school writing on you like its nuthin' a lot of people in the room

See me scribble on a page but they ain't got a clue, naw they ain't got a clue

We're here to begin it hoping someday you and I can say

We made it and we did it

You ain't nuthin but a notepad to me, Who am I kiddin?

I'm just runnin out of space I'll be back in a minute

Turn the page homie

You know what’s crazy is

This just started as something that was an escape for us

You know

And now I look around and, there’s a lot of people going

Through the same things that we've been through

Now this music we write is actually making an impact it’s crazy

NF real music
