J-Xtreme - Doubt

There are moments
When people will try to bring you down
They try to question your ability to succeed
And once you finally make it
Those that were there from the beginning
Are your true friends
You feel me?
I mean I do wonder how many people
Still really believe in me
Believe in me
Believe in me
I mean I do wonder how many people
Still really believe in me
Believe in me
Believe in me
I’m aiming for the biggest stage
I’m talking rap shows
Hitting double platinum on an album
That’s a rap goal I got from J Cole
When 2014 forest hills went double platinum
With no features that’s amazing
I got it playing on repeat while lifting weights in
I mean patience I ain't trying to rush
Don’t want to be a one-hit wonder
I ain't trying to bust like Greg Oden
I mean no disrespect
I’m just trying to be like Michael Jordan
In the rap scene that’s a hurdle
I’ve been facing all this competition like a Persian
I’m a different person, when I rap
Experimenting styles to use on each track
Releasing a better version of me like an app
Constantly updating so I can
Show you I’m improving on and I'm formulating
A plan to conquer these lands
I’m building relationships that’ll never break
No matter how long it takes for time to pass
Overthinking cause you can’t easily trust
The people you just met to even lend a hand
I’m trying to avoid being stabbed on the back
Like sticking out a fork to eat a salad (Caesar)
Let the beat ride
Reflect on your mind
(Reflect on your mind)
Don’t worry about anything
Cause everything’s fine
(Everything’s fine)
You just got to let go and relax
Cause you’re not inclined
(You’re not inclined)
To change how you think and doubt on yourself
Do not waste your time
(Do not waste your time)
I mean I do wonder how many people
Still really believe in me
Believe in me
Believe in me
I mean I do wonder how many people
Still really believe in me
Believe in me
Believe in me
I already dropped the microphone once
Blamed it on my writer’s block for months
But I kept telling myself that I’d make it
Even if I never posted on
Any platform my channel's getting rusty
Last song on Soundcloud was 2013
Living in a fantasy now who would draft me
Ratings probably low but my potential’s like draft beer
Though it’s still fresher than your canned drinks
Overflowing so the glass is never empty
Over criticizing what I create
Even if I love what I’m doing
That’s when I started to reflect on
Why I stopped cause I kept on
Comparing my tracks to them hit songs
Like I’m at the top though there was a gap
Between what I’ve been listening and
What’s coming out of my mouth
Like I’m vomiting out my tolerance is too low
So I need to slowly build it up again
Just another analogy but the same thing goes for
Every time that I ain't holding my pen
So I’m never dropping it I’m confident
Pop the cap while I’m locking in my paper pad
Better to start writing shit so I can catch up
To all of those years that I have surely wasted
Let the beat ride
Reflect on your mind
(Reflect on your mind)
Don’t worry about anything
Cause everything’s fine
(Everything’s fine)
You just got to let go and relax
Cause you’re not inclined
(You’re not inclined)
To change how you think and doubt on yourself
Do not waste your time
(Do not waste your time)
I mean I do wonder how many people
Still really believe in me
Believe in me
Believe in me
I mean I do wonder how many people
Still really believe in me
Believe in me
Believe in me
Only thing stopping you is your mind
Like perceptions and the views on your life
Saying one thing but always doing another
Never met between like two parallel lines
Cause your heart and your mind
Got different kinds of beliefs
It’s amazing how they never agree
Like two couples about to break
Cause there ain't no other way or reason to stay
Cause they’re too tired so they leave
And I’m tired to believe so I doubted myself
But I’m in love with this shit
I came back for it then, so I’m back for it now
I deserve to be crowned we can duke it out
To see who is ruling the crowd
Also moving the crowd with the words that we say
Rap a verse or two about our emotional state
Inspiring the youth and those still listening
Motivating y'all but we don’t say what we mean
But we do what we preach and that’s all that you need
Cause mindset ain't enough if you want to achieve
Everything on your list
You just have to go for it
It’s normal to overthink but don’t let that impinge
All the choices you make or the things that your dream
People are opinionated that shouldn’t be hindering
Cause as what Will has said
It’s okay to do it scared than doing nothing at all
And regret in the end
Let the beat ride
Reflect on your mind
(Reflect on your mind)
Don’t worry about anything
Cause everything’s fine
(Everything’s fine)
You just got to let go and relax
Cause you’re not inclined
(You’re not inclined)
To change how you think and doubt on yourself
Do not waste your time
(Do not waste your time)
