Lyrics Over Beat: Myself ("Peach" - Kehlani X Daniel Caesar R&B Type Beat丨Prod. chillingcat

[Verse 1]

Asking my fathers above for some peace

My guidance to stand up and finally achieve

The dreams that I see every night when I sleep

Wakin' to rust is so straining on me

Doing my best, holding on to the creak

Mending the bucket to fetch from the stream

Heading out soon, cause I just turned sixteen

Prepare for new waters, a new tsunami


[Pre-Chorus]

Three months to breathe now

Fill it up somehow

Classes and working and proving I know how

To climb up and grow

To move on my own

Lookin' ahead I just feel so alone

Chances slip by

I have to try

Reaching and searching for something of mine

Keep my head high

I'm falling each time

Pick it up, pack it up, look to the sky


[Chorus]

Cause I've got faith in myself (I'll keep moving)

I've got eyes on my prize (I will take it)

I've got love for myself 

And wherever I end up

I promise you, I'll be alright


[Verse 3]

I'm looking at life, spread it out on a grid

A look into the future's always so grim

My chances at success always feeling so slim

And right next to it, I expect the brim

My cup'll overflow, 

and even if it don't

I will its existence,

The gold's coming home

I speak my ambitions

I'll make them my own

My brilliance inhibits 

my ideas to roam.


[Verse 4]

My spirit has changed with my balancing act

Juggling keeping my psyche intact

Along with my personal, I'm tryna pass

To do what I want to, I'm tryna top that

Life's getting quicker, less time to react

Adulthood is dawning, it's drawing on fast

18 will wash up and reroute my path

Destiny's calling, I'm not going back


[Pre-Chorus]

Two years til countdown

Fill it up somehow

Planning and prepping, and teaching myself how

To climb up and grow

To stand on my own

Reminding myself that I'm never alone

Chances slip by

I have to try

Reaching and searching for something of mine

Keep my head high

I'm falling each time

Pick it up, pack it up, look to the--


[Chorus]

I've got faith in myself (I'll keep moving)

I've got eyes on my prize (I will take it)

I've got love for myself 

And wherever I end up

I promise you, I'll be just fine

Cause I'm still trusting myself (I'll keep moving)

I will wear my crown (I will wear it)

I've got love for myself 

And wherever I end up

I promise you, I'll be alright
