    Can we all just take a minute to appreciate Royce's verse?
    "I remember signing my first deal, now I'm the second best, I can deal with that."
    He's giving Em credit for being the best, mad respect to Royce for doing that.

    Shoutout to Bruno, Em, and Royce. This was one of the defining songs of middle school for me. I was a 13-year-old kid who tried to act funny to make friends, never realizing I had to just be me to make the friends who mattered. I was a kid who made up stories, drew cartoons alone in his room, never thinking too far into the future. Ironically, I was too trapped in my imagination to think big. I don't regret it, or else I wouldn't be the man I am today.
    Now I'm 23, and I'm proud to say I've accomplished more than I ever dreamed. I went to college, went abroad, and now I'm putting myself through school to do a job that won't make millions of dollars, but I hope will make a difference for others. And I'm not done yet! I'm still that same kid who likes to write stories and draw pictures, and no matter what, I'm gonna publish those stories someday.
    The other day, I felt the saddest I've felt for a while, and it's because this social distancing stuff is finally getting to me. I felt alone and like I wasn't doing anything fulfilling with my life being stuck inside, and that hurt to think about.
    But now, listening to one of the most inspirational songs of my teen years, I've been reminded of all I've accomplished and all I still need to do.
    For all of you out there who feel as uplifted by this song as I do, you're not alone in this pandemic. I know you don't know me, and I don't know you, but I know that however alone you might feel, you still have things you know you have to do or want to do. Just keep pushing, bit by bit, and you'll get there, even if you didn't get there the way you thought you would. Someday, you're gonna read my stories, and the rest of the world and I will read yours.

    [Chorus: Bruno Mars]
    This one's for you and me
    Livin' out our dreams
    We are right where we should be
    With my arms out wide, I open my eyes
    And now all I wanna see
    Is a sky full of lighters
    A sky full of lighters
    [Verse 1: Eminem]
    By the time you hear this, I will have already spiraled up
    I would never do nothin' to let you cowards fuck my world up
    If I was you I would duck, or get struck like lightnin'
    Fighters keep fightin', put your lighters up, point 'em skyward, uh
    Had a dream, I was king; I woke up, still king
    This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking
    'Til nobody else even fuckin' feels me, 'til it kills me
    I swear to God I'll be the fuckin' illest in this music
    There is, or there ever will be, disagree? Feel free
    But from now on I'm refusing to ever give up
    Only thing I ever gave up's using no more excuses
    Excuse me if my head is too big for this building
    And pardon me if I'm a cocky prick, but you cocks are slick
    Poppin' shit on how you flipped your life around, crock of shit
    Who you dicks tryna kid? Flip "dick," you did opposite
    You stayed the same 'cause "cock" backwards is still "cock," you pricks!
    I love it when I tell 'em shove it
    ‘Cause it wasn’t that long ago when Marshall sat flustered
    Lacked luster ‘cause he couldn’t cut mustard
    Muster up nothin', brain fuzzy
    ‘Cause he’s buzzin’, woke up from that buzzer
    Now you wonder why he does it how he does it
    Wasn’t ‘cause he had buzzards
    Circlin' around his head, waitin' for him to drop dead, was it?
    Or was it ‘cause some bitches wrote him off?
    Little hussy-ass scuzzes
    Fuck it, guess it doesn’t matter now, does it?
    What difference it make? What’s it take?
    To get it through your thick skulls that this ain’t
    Some bullshit; people don’t usually come back this way
    From a place that was dark as I was in just to get to this place
    Now let these words be like a switchblade to a hater’s ribcage!
    And let it be known from this day forward, I wanna just say
    Thanks, ‘cause your hate is what gave me the strength
    So let them Bics raise, ‘cause I came with 5'9", but I feel like I’m 6'8"
    [Chorus: Bruno Mars]
    This one's for you and me
    Livin' out our dreams
    We are right where we should be
    With my arms out wide, I open my eyes
    And now all I wanna see
    Is a sky full of lighters
    A sky full of lighters
    [Verse 2: Royce Da 5'9"]
    By the time you hear this, I’ll prolly already be outtie
    I advance like goin' from totin' iron to goin' and buyin’
    Four or five of the homies the Iron Man Audi
    My daddy told me: "Slow down, boy, you're goin' to blow it!"
    And I ain't gotta stop the beat a minute to tell Shady I love him
    The same way that he did Dr. Dre on The Chronic
    Tell him how real he is, or how high I am
    Or how I would kill for him, for him to know it
    I cried plenty tears, my daddy got a bad back
    So it's only right that I write 'til he can march right
    Into that post office and tell 'em to hang it up
    Now his career's LeBron's Jersey in twenty years
    I stop when I'm at the very top
    You shitted on me on your way up, it's 'bout to be a scary drop
    ‘Cause what goes up must come down
    You goin' down on somethin' you don't wanna see, like a hairy box
    Every hour, happy hour now, life is wacky now
    Used to have to eat the cat to get the pussy
    Now I'm just the cat's meow, oow, outclass the count
    Always down for the catchweight like Pacquiao
    Y'all are doomed
    I remember when T-Pain ain't wanna work with me
    My car starts itself, parks itself, and auto-tunes
    ‘Cause now I'm in the Aston; I went from havin'
    My city locked up to gettin' treated like Kwame Kilpatrick
    And now I'm fantastic, compare it to a weed high
    And y'all niggas that's gossipin' like bitches
    On a radio and TV, see me, we fly
    Y'all buggin' out like Wendy Williams starin' at a beehive
    And how real is that? I remember signin' my first deal
    Now I'm the second best, I can deal with that
    Now Bruno can show his ass, without the MTV awards gag
    [Bridge: Bruno Mars]
    You and I know what it's like
    To be kicked down, forced to fight
    But tonight, we're all right
    So hold up your lights
    Let it shine, 'cause-
    [Chorus: Bruno Mars]
    This one's for you and me
    Livin' out our dreams
    We are right where we should be
    With my arms out wide, I open my eyes
    And now all I wanna see
    Is a sky full of lighters
    A sky full of lighters

I love listening to this song and thinking “your hate is what gave me the strength” because 8 years ago when I first heard this song, I thought it was hopeless at times. This song reminds me where I came from and that you gotta fight.

      I'm glad that you got through it, but, it seems that you have held onto a bit of a grudge. Im not saying this is your case but some people seem to like to achieve things mostly so they can prove other people wrong or prove that you're better than someone (I used to do this) and I'd say that type of thinking doesn't really make you happy; even if you do succeed and prove them wrong
      In my opinion the most reasonable man only has to prove things to himself

    Fighters keep fighting, put your lighters up, point 'em' skyward uh
    Had a dream I was king, I woke up, still king
    This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking,

    Poppin' shit on how you flipped ya life around, crock-o-shit

    You stayed the same, 'cause cock backwards is still cock you pricks
    I love it when I tell 'em shove it
    Cause it wasn't that long ago when Marshall sat, luster lacked, lustered
    'Cause he couldn't cut mustard, muster up nothing
    Brain fuzzy, 'cause he's buzzin', woke up from that buzz

    LYRICS
    This one's for you and me, living out our dreams
    We're all right where we should be
    With my arms out wide I open my eyes
    And now all I wanna see
    Is a sky full of lighters
    A sky full of lighters
    By the time you hear this I will have already spiraled up
    I would never do nothing to let you cowards fuck my world up
    If I was you, I would duck, or get struck like lightening,
    Fighters keep fighting, put your lighters up, point 'em' skyward uh
    Had a dream I was king, I woke up, still king
    This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking,
    Till nobody else even fucking feels me, till' it kills me
    I swear to god I'll be the fucking illest in this music
    There is or there ever will be, disagree?
    Feel free, but from now on I'm refusing to ever give up
    Only thing I ever gave up's using no more excuses
    Excuse me if my head is too big for this building
    And pardon me if I'm a cocky prick but you cocks are slick
    Poppin' shit on how you flipped ya life around, crock-o-shit
    Who you dicks try to kid, flipped dick, you did the opposite
    You stayed the same, 'cause cock backwards is still cock you pricks
    I love it when I tell 'em shove it
    Cause it wasn't that long ago when Marshall sat, luster lacked, lustered
    'Cause he couldn't cut mustard, muster up nothing
    Brain fuzzy, 'cause he's buzzin', woke up from that buzz
    Now you wonder why he does it, how he does it
    Wasn't 'cause he had buzzards circle around his head
    Waiting for him to drop dead, was it?
    Or was it, 'cause them bitches wrote him off
    Little hussy ass buzzards, fuck it, guess it doesn't matter now, does it
    What difference it make?
    What it take to get it through your thick skulls
    As if this ain't some bullshit
    People don't usually come back this way
    From a place that was dark as I was in
    Just to get to this place
    Now let these words be like a switch blade to a haters rib cage
    And let it be known from this day forward
    I wanna just say thanks 'cause your hate is what gave me the strength
    So let 'em bic's raise 'cause I came with five nine
    But I feel like I'm six eight
    This one's for you and me, living out our dreams
    We're all right where we should be
    With my arms out wide I open my eyes
    And now all I wanna see
    Is a sky full of lighters
    A sky full of lighters
    By the time you hear this I'll probably already be outtie
    I advance like going from toting iron
    To going and buying four or five of the homies the iron man Audi
    My daddy told me slow down, boy, you goin' to blow it
    And I ain't gotta stop the beat a minute
    To tell Shady I love him the same way that he did Dr.Dre on the Chronic
    Tell him how real he is or how high I am
    Or how I would kill for him for him to know it
    I cried plenty tears, my daddy got a bad back
    So it's only right that I right
    Till he can march right
    Into that post office and tell 'em to hang it up
    Now his career's Lebron's jersey in twenty years
    I'll stop when I'm at the very top
    You shitted on me on your way up
    It's 'bout to be a scary drop
    Cause what goes up must come down
    You going down on something you don't wanna see like a hairy box
    Every hour, happy hour now
    Life is wacky now
    Used to have to eat the cat to get the pussy
    Now I'm just the cats meow, ow
    Classic cow, always down for the catch weight like Pacquiao
    Y'all are doomed
    I remember when T-Pain ain't wanna work with me
    My car starts itself, parks itself and auto-tunes
    'Cause now I'm in the Aston
    I went from having my city locked up
    To getting treated like Kwame Kilpatrick
    And now I'm fantastic
    Compared to a weed high
    And y'all niggas just gossipin' like bitches on a radio and TV
    See me, we fly
    Y'all buggin' out like Wendy Williams staring at a bee-hive
    And how real is that
    I remember signing my first deal
    And now I'm the second best I can deal with that
    Now Bruno can show his ass, without the MTV awards gag
    You and I know what it's like to be kicked down
    Forced to fight, but tonight we're alright
    So hold up your light, let it shine 'cause
    This one's for you and me, living out our dreams
    We're all right where we should be
    With my arms out wide I open my eyes
    And now all I wanna see
    Is a sky full of lighters
    A sky full of lighters

      Asia A I agree. Music now sucks. Only a few people keep it good like this. Everything is has the same techno beat. I say that whatever when good music began-2011 is the good music. Yeah, I'm starting to sound like an idiot....
