Been Through It All

[Intro: Machine Gun Kelly & (Cheri Dennis)] (I can say that I made it, cause in my heart I'm the greatest I've been through it all) This song is for everyone out there Who's ever made it through the hard times For everyone who's ever had to struggle For what they wanted in life This song is for everyone Who had to sit through the dark days Before they saw the light For everyone who's been through it all Shout out to my fans, man This one's for y'all, baby! [Verse 1: Machine Gun Kelly] Uhh, I been through it all Crazy, because I never thought I'd say that (Naw) The cost to be the boss, never thought I'd pay that (Not at all) Headed to the top, without the friends I've had since way back Near death experiences, watching my life play back Damn, and I have never sold a brick But I can show you where to get it Like I can show you how to flip My whole life has been a hustle Since momma bounced on her kid And I ain't never scared of drama I was born up in the shit (Let's go) Cause it was once upon a time, mu'fucker We were fine and I was just a little snobby mu'fucker (Right?) Then it changed, now these people wanna rob me mu'fucker (Oh) New environment, now Pops' like "Get a job muh fucker!" (Whoo) Yeah, so I did that, wasn't with that, so I quit that Told them about my dreams and then they laughed But I spit that, fire Couldn't deny it, so the choir that would chip, yeah (What they do?) Shut it up, and still I won't forget that Man fuck y'all! And I won't put that behind me (Behind me) Even though I left the past (Past) And I'm still the kid now (Now) Even though I left the class (Class) I'm on, and it took everything from A to Z to do it So anything I'm talking, I've been through it I've been through it all [Hook: Cheri Dennis] I've been through it all Had to hustle just to make it through the struggle But I still won't let that get me down Put my feelings in the music So the world can hear me all around Every town and every city Every state and every country I can say that I made it Cause in my heart I'm the greatest Because I been through it all [Verse 2: Machine Gun Kelly] Look, in April I was born, at 14 I was a felon (Uhuh) By 18, I had been to more funerals than a reverend (Damn) And right when I felt like I'd give it up, look what they sent me My beautiful baby girl straight outta heaven And I loved you girl And even though that was never part of the plan And people doubted it because of who I am Fuck, I hope they understand That at 19 with the world in my hands I stepped up and handled that shit like a man I've been homeless, I've been broke Done every drug 'cept for coke I done fought for my life, been jumped, shot at, and more I've been rich and I've been poor Had to steal from the store on nights there wasn't shit to eat And seen my best friends go Damn, so what the fuck could you possibly say to me? (Huh?) The verdict is I'm the truth, but you can thank today's jury (Yup) But if you wanna judge, come walk a mile in my chucks But the world sucks, better Lace Up, uhhgk [Hook] [Verse 3: Machine Gun Kelly] Okay, I've been made out be a monster But the only thing aggressive about me Is the will that I have to conquer I told them I was the best And they doubted, but no longer Out of all the starving artists They could hear my hunger (Sup?) And if that's wrong then I don't wanna be right I'm always dreaming so I'm gone in the night (Shhh) And now it's reality I'm calling home like "I'll be gone on this flight" But how can I contact a place that doesn't exist in my life? Home, I guess that I'll just be alone for the ride And live vicariously through another's eyes Adding on to the list of lies So my girl doesn't trust me for shit Probably cause after my momma left I ain't trusted a chick Shit, and my father drowning his problems with the bottle While I'm praying my auntie can see tomorrow Cause cancer ain't a joke And I just lost one of my best friends to the pen So I don't wanna live again I been through it [Hook] [Outro: Machine Gun Kelly] And if you ever have a dream Don't be scared to chase that shit, man You can have whatever you want in this life Don't let anyone tell you different And shoutout to my fans for helping me achieve my dreams Kells
