[01:43.80]It's a Catch-22 I'm bein' honest
[01:46.74]Hard work tryna keep the past behind me
[01:50.04]I still be havin' flashbacks 'bout Johnny
[01:52.80]Fast forward and the major label signed me
[01:56.28]Had to hustle had to focus perseverance
[01:59.44]Mama used to go to TJ Maxx and shop on clearance
