[Verse 1: Futuristic]
           F#m
I had an epiphany
                       G#m
I was repeating history

I was doing everything I hated
     D
The weight on my shoulders

I let it all get to me (I let it all get to me)
          F#m
I had an epiphany
                           G#m
I just smiled at my enemies
                            D
I was listenin' to everybody who was talkin'

But never did shit for me, yeah
           F#m
I had an epiphany
                      G#m
I was lookin' at everybody else that's up in the industry
               D
They ain't as sick as me (They ain't as sick as me)
           F#m
I had an epiphany
                           G#m
I was seein' somebody that never had no good intentions for me
         D
Now she missin' me, yuh (Now she missin' me)
                             F#m
Yeah, moral of the story is nobody did it for me
                           G#m
Had to make a change (Nah)

I was livin' in the city with no scene
         D
I had a dream I had to make a lane (Yup, yup)

Always knew that I couldn't live off of minimum wage
F#m
Rippin' the pay stub (Woo)
                                G#m
I had a minimal taste for all the fame stuff (Woo)
                    D
But I got into the game without a cent to my name

And now I'm ballin' like I'm in the NBA, bruh
                   F#m
And I know I got a lot but I'm not content (Yeah)
                   G#m
If they ask me to stop, I will not consent (Yeah)
                   D
Never let nobody block 'cause my shot to miss (Yeah)

You can meet me at the top if you hop the fence
                      F#m
And you climb the stairs

And you fight the beast
                    G#m
And you lose your way

Then you find your peace
                   D
And you do it sober

Then you find a drink

Then you spiral down

And it all repeats
                     F#m
And I always had a vision I could get it

So I did it by my lonely
         G#m
I don't owe nobody nothin', never let nobody own me
          D
Got some money from the music, and I spend it on the homies

But don't put nothin' before me, gave a whip to little brodie
        F#m
And I'm only gettin" started (Started)
                         G#m
And I'm eatin' with the people that I starve with (Starve with)
                     D
And my batteries, I had to recharge 'em (Recharge)

I made an album but that shit was garbage
            F#m
Yo, I was trapped in a gimmick

I finally get it
     G#m
I'm here to make music that matters
      D
If I die, it'll all be alright

'Cause the message I gave you will live for me after
        F#m
And my chapter will highlight a lifetime (Lifetime)
    G#m
Of energy gave through a bright mind (Bright mind)
         D
How you never had to stand on the sideline? (Sideline)

How you the guide to your own guidelines?


[Chorus: Futurisitic]
            F#m                 G#m
That's an epiphany (That's an epiphany, that's an epiphany)
           D
I had an epiphany, yeah (—piphany, yeah, —piphany, yeah)
            F#m                G#m
That's an epiphany (That's an epiphany)
           D
I had an epiphany, yeah (I had an epiphany, yeah)


[Verse 2: NF]
          F#m
I had an epiphany
                          G#m
That I could make history

That I could prove everyone wrong
       D
That told me I wasn't cut out for this music thing, yeah
           F#m
I had an epiphany
                         G#m
What if I took my energy
                                      D
And used it on positive things in my life

Instead of the people that lie to me, huh? (Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh)
                F#m
Yeah, I had an epiphany
                           G#m
That I could put all of my hurt into music
                            D
And use it for people that might feel the same as me (The same as me, same as me, same as me, same as me)
                F#m
Yeah, I had an epiphany
                            G#m
What if everyone knew my depression was worse than they thought?
                    D
They probably gon' look at me differently (Differently, differently, differently, differently)
                      F#m
Yo, this song got me goin' back, when I was a stupid kid
          G#m
Thinkin' maybe I could make it in the music biz
            D
And then I figured out the politics

And realized that half of y'all don't even know what music is
              F#m
Ain't goin' nowhere, I told 'em to get used to me
                G#m
Feels like I'm livin' in a movie scene
                             D
A bunch of people tryin' to tell me how to act and breathe

One thing I never let nobody ever do was tell me who to be
        F#m
I never got into the party scene
                  G#m
Maybe I was just scared to drink
                                   D
'Cause addiction it runs in my family

That's someone I was scared to be

You're lookin' pitiful compared to me

Since I can barely read
F#m
All I wanted was somebody I could trust
                           G#m
That I knew would keep it real with me
                     D
Rap's always been a mirror for me

That's when I figured out that maybe I'm the one that's gotta make it on my own, yeah, it's clear to see
F#m
A lot of people thinkin' what I'm doing is a gimmick
       G#m
Everything you hear me writin' I've been livin', I ain't quittin'
          D
Send the money to my family, try to show 'em that I miss 'em

And I cherish every moment when I'm home and when I'm with 'em
                  F#m
And it's just the way that I feel (I feel, I feel, I fee)
                    G#m
In the industry of fakes tryna stay real (Stay real, stay real, stay real)
                     D
In the industry of lames tryna get deals

Lord knows I'ma get it, that's Meek Mill (Meek Mill, Meek Mill)
F#m                               G#m
 Yeah, I lay in my bed at night thinkin'

"There's gotta be more to me"
               D
I'm tryin' to pay off the mortgaging

But the life of the people I love in the midst of it
             F#m
I've always thought that if
                             G#m
I learn from mistakes that I make, even losses are victories
        D
That's when it starts hittin' me

If you set your mind to it, you can do anything


[Chorus: NF]
           F#m               G#m
That's an epiphany (—piphany, —piphany)
            D
That's an epiphany, yeah (—piphany, yeah —piphany, yeah)
           F#m              G#m
I had an epiphany (—piphany, —piphany, —piphany)
           D 
I had an epiphany, yeah (—piphany, yeah)
