Look At How Far I've Come Lyrics - This Thing Called Life - August Alsina

Not a day goes by, I don't think to myself 

And remember the times there was no one else 

I felt so alone, there was pain that I felt 

Cause even self made niggas don't wanna do it by themselves 

I looked to the hills, someone's coming for help 

And he gave me the will when there was nothing left 

Lord knows that I tried, Lord knows that I cried 

Those nights I couldn't eat, had to swallow my pride 

But through it all, one thing remained 

I kept it real, I stayed the same 

And I made it through a lot of pain 

Had a lot of sleepless nights, but still I have to fight 

So I went and got it out the dirt 

When they told me it would never work 

And the bad just kept on getting worse 

Had to tell myself a few words from the heart

Look at how far I've come and I'm here, y'all 

If you think nobody feels yall best believe I know 

Look, I can't turn back now when they've killed y'all 

And I can't pay all these bills, y'all, better know one thing for sho 

Look at how far I've come, even though I'm outchea stressing 

Still I gotta do my best and let it go 

So I can't look back now 

I gotta keep pressing on, 'til I make it, somehow 

I know some days you feel like giving up 

Feel like time is running out and all you have is doubt 

Tryna keep your head up, but you fed up, tryna stack your bread up 

Like how come the outcome of my income is dough comin'? 

No one is helpin', they just out for theirself 

Outchea tryna make a way, hoping there's a better day 

And when you think that you're done 

And the storm is raging 

Look through the clouds and you can see the sun 

Sometimes I know it's hard and life can have you stressing 

But you should count your blessings in every single lesson you've learned 

It takes hard work in getting up out the dirt 

But how could you know pleasure, if you never knew hurt? 

We all go through our share of pain, ups and downs 

For reasons that I can't explain 

But when it's all said and done 

And you think you've run as far as you can run
