Yo, Yello wassup bro.

I don't know if you really gonna respond to

My message or not, bro, cause, we're far away.

But, nevertheless, I'm doing this with... hope.

Just wanted to let you know, man, that,

You know I been– I'm in pain right now. I'm in pain right now, a

Nd I been struggling a lot. Maurice,

All the way from Costa Rica, brother.

3 months ago I was just sitting at my mama house.

Thinking 'bout how long I been rapping, I should be popping now.

Then this rapper, Trippie Redd, called me out the blue.

And he told me to keep going, so that's what I'm telling you.

Cause after that I didn't sleep for like 48 hours

I gotta say, powerful people can motivate power

Cause I was pouring out my heart, so I could make a difference.

I knew I had to give my soul for them to pay attention

Look at me now, 20 million views later

Motivating millions, coulda ended in a newspaper.

I was suicidal, but I knew greater.

Overcoming obstacles, I swear I feel like Tomb Raider.

Down, down, down, down, down.

Thinking I should prolly just throw in the towel now,

But I kept going, looking for a waayy out.

Praying that these demons in my soul stay out, yeah.

I know how it feel, to feel like they don't understand you.

I know how it feel, to feel like they don't wanna help you.

Gotta go in tunnel vision, you can't let it stress you.

Life is what you make it, gotta spank it like your nephew.

Only way to fail, is to quit.

And before I quit, I take a shell to the lip.

Yeah, before I fail I'mma flip.

Push it to the limit, till you fail to exist.

(Maurice)

I heard you say you don't got no real people you can talk too.

I know that feeling and it's awful, I wish I could call you.

And tell you that it's hard to make it out when you alone.

But you gotta believe you got that power on your own.

And you gotta believe it in a drought, when it get cold.

I promise I almost threw in the towel when I was low

Them demons in your body overpowering your soul,

But if you don't give up,

I promise, that you bound to reach your goal.

You gotta push it.

Even when it feel like ain't nobody looking.

Bruh, you only get one life you gotta strike it like a bullet.

Man, I done been through way to much for me to let that be the end,

I couldn't let the pressure win,

So I shook it.

Yeah, I shook it.

Before I give up I'll make a pallet in the bushes.

And I'd sleep there every night until I found a way out.

And once you make it out you gotta stay out.

Don't give up

(Maurice)
