Ziplock bag |
|
I don't brag about the struggles, |

|
So you don't know the pain |

I went through, to create this smile |
|
I got one life to live, know |

They thinking that my life, was a cake walk |
|
I'm a man of principles, |
|
I live by my word |

So it's obscured when |
|
I hear sour words |
|
They gon' get what they deserve but |
|
I don't wish no harm |
|

|
Got me wondering, if |
|
I'll ever see the reward at the end of the road |
|
It's kind of hard to remember your goals |
|
When you grow where not many live to get old |
|
I played the cards that |
