Lord, it's so hard, living this life | |
A constant struggle each and everyday | |
Some wonder why | |
I'd rather die | |
Than to continue living this way | |
Uh, I don't wanna do this no mo' | |
But dis the only thang that | |
I knowI keep a pistol in my back and a gauge on the flo' | |
The laws and the jackers wanna kick in my do' | |
I'm a D-boy, didn't graduate | |
But I got | |
Ph.D from | |
Pimp State | |
And I got a | |
Master's Degree in movin' weight | |
And my people dependin' on me but they gon' be straight | |
Uh, I wanna go to service | |
But I ain't been in so long, kinda make me feel nervous' | |
Cause they be lookin' at me funny | |
Watchin' the plate when | |
I tithe put in my money | |
I don't wanna go back to that hell | |
Rather be dead than doin' life in a jail cell | |
Die young, oh well, | |
I had a good life | |
They rappin' 'bout it but | |
I'm out here payin' the price | |
Lord, it's so hard living this life | |
A constant struggle each and everyday | |
Some wonder why | |
I'd rather die | |
Than to continue living this way | |
I wake up out of bed, right after the crack of dawn | |
And I give myself a stretch up, a mornin’ yawn | |
And see, I'm a pawn in this neighborhood chess game | |
Move one step at a time, long as the | |
Lord bless me | |
I know the rest aim high, | |
I'm tryin' to aim it higher | |
Watchin' the lames aspire to street success, mayne | |
They tryin' to flame the fire but that's like wettin' water | |
You either burnt or washed out, so get in order | |
Everyday it's gettin' harder to fuck with the flow | |
I'm tryin' to keep all of my motherfuckin' ducks in a row | |
I gotta see a man 'bout a dog and sell him a cat | |
If you don't know, then you don't know, dat's dat | |
Shit, a dollar outta fifteen cents, | |
I got a dime | |
Tryin' to hustle up my way to a million, | |
I gotta grind | |
Walkin' the line like cash, | |
I'm on my mash | |
Two hundred yards behind in a hundred yard dash | |
Lord, it's so hard, living this life | |
A constant struggle each and everyday | |
Some wonder why | |
I'd rather die | |
Than to continue living this way | |
Lord, I'm sittin' here on bended knee, my hands locked, eyes shut | |
Askin' You to watch over me, no matter what | |
Even though | |
I ain't too well behaved, | |
I'm still a child of | |
YouAnd faith in my | |
Holy Father is all that keep me smilin' | |
Through the bad times and worse times, through it all | |
When my head is hangin' low, | |
You help me to stand tall | |
The only way | |
I'ma ball, the only way | |
I'ma shine | |
Is if You lookin' after me while | |
I'm out here on the grind | |
Uh, I know you bless the child that go get it | |
I'm the product of the ghetto, the flame of the city | |
So I talk the language of the ave’ | |
Forgive my dirty mouth, please, | |
I'm whippin' slabs | |
Fifties, quarters and the whole thangs | |
Balance in my life on the fo' beam | |
And I need codeine just to stay sane | |
I'm steady prayin' to | |
You but I don't know | |
Your real name | |
Knahmtalkinbout? | |
But I'm under the impression that if your heart is in the right place | |
Your prayers gon' get heard anyway | |
So some say | |
Jah Jah, some say | |
AllahSome say | |
Jesus, some say | |
Yeshua Ben'ta, knahmalkinbout? | |
Ay man, I just look like this, man, knahmtalkinbout? | |
I ain't get this far bein' no square man | |
You wanna hide some'n from black folks | |
They say you can put it in a book, | |
I don't believe that' | |
Cause I done read fo' libraries worth of books | |
I got some knowledge y'all need to get up on, mayne | |
But hold a pair of hearts, knahmtalkinbout? | |
For they laws and power, knahmsayin? | |
The art of war | |
The secret societies of | |
America, knahmtalkinbout? | |
Everythang ain't what it look like, man | |
And don't judge every book by its cover, ya dig? | |
Hold up |
Lord, it' s so hard, living this life | |
