Abstract, RoZe - I Do This lyrics

I do this for my father
Who've I've only seen
From time to time in my dreams
I do this for, you
I do this for my mother
Who's finally clean
And no longer a feen
I do this for, you
I do this for my sister
My wife and my kids
Cause they part of the team
I do this for
All the naysayers and haters
Who made me one of the greatest
I know it kills you inside
That's why I do this for you

I do this for the kids who
Sit a bit outside the mix
Who maybe cope through humor
Just to fit in for a bit
Who never let the world know
When depressions setting in
To all of those who know
You that impression don't exist
And it ain't counterfeit
It's just a way to counter it
I'm living things I dreamed about
I still encounter it
It ain't something that a cigarette
Or alcohol can fix
But all because of it I flipped it quick
Went on to write some hit's
This a success off another breath
This the first step in searching
To be nothing less
Than be the best in what you do
To prove there's strength in being you
Learned so much in chasing dreams that
I never would in school
Depends on where your passion lie
Just know passion never lie
Life presents distractions
But your actions have to fortify
The things that you believe in have
To scream it like a battlecry
And leave the ones who didn't lookin'
Stupid while they're asking why
Couldn't lie
I really do this for the ones I love
Those who treat the music as a
Vice and lyrics like a drug
Those who need advice on how to
Lift their spirit high enough
To break out of the box they make
Of lives they know aren't good enough
Just because it's how it is don't mean
It's how it has to be
This is what the uninspired
Testifiers fail to see
Jealousy results from being that which
Others failed to be
And if it means you're not with me
That honestly sounds fair to me

I do this for my father
Who've I've only seen
From time to time in my dreams
I do this for, you
I do this for my mother
Who's finally clean
And no longer a feen
I do this for, you
I do this for my sister
My wife and my kids
Cause they part of the team
I do this for
All the naysayers and haters
Who made me one of the greatest
I know it kills you inside
That's why I do this for you

Do this for my mother
She'll be working for the summer
Do this for my father cause
These days I often wonder
What my life would have been like
If I was not adopted
To grow up in a home where
I was treated like a problem
I don't know, it's just a guess
Your guess probably good as mine
Lucky that I grew up in a
Home that wanted me to shine
Lucky that I grew up round some
Mountain we were taught to climb
Without that inspiration I don't think that
This would be my life
Do this for my friends who've scattered
All cross the country now
I'm out in Sweden walking back through life
So I can write it down
Make a living off the sound
So crazy to say out loud
I'm the biggest thing since Travis Rice
To come up out the town
Sorry gotta stunt a little
Used to have my dreams belittled
But it's all a part of it
I know people's minds are fickle
Lines between reality and dreams I
Blur like faded nights
Come up been so good for me
I wish that I could make it twice

I do this for my father
Who've I've only seen
From time to time in my dreams
I do this for, you
I do this for my mother
Who's finally clean
And no longer a feen
I do this for, you
I do this for my sister
My wife and my kids
Cause they part of the team
I do this for
All the naysayers and haters
Who made me one of the greatest
I know it kills you inside
That's why I do this for you
