Life Ain't Easy
If they cuss fine Jesus, what they gon' do to me?
Maybe the same, myself or them, who should I blame?
Locked behind walls will either make ya go insane
Or make you change for those who had years, let me explain
I started out with nothin', now I got so much to gain
Ain't neva had money, so to me, money ain't the fame
I want the power and respect, the rest I will obtain
Ancestors slaved for years but we still wouldn't change
They be ? tryna kill David
Told my nigga I hope nothin' I do make em feel degraded
When I feel the statements, cultivate my greatest rhyme
Will it do my soul some good to justify my state of mind?
I hope the lord call my name, I don't need roll call
Hope they'll have to free my nigga Mick cause then my hood dies
So many bumps and bruises I took on this road, y'all
So every night I pray with faith before I doze off
Life ain't easy being me and life probably ain't easy bein' you
Here's what I think we should do, keep livin' our life until we trough
A thug came to me right now, will he accept me or will he strike down?
Any ideas of me up there but it's here here, does he care?
Church heart, you'll see me there
Strip club and the dope house, but I'm weak there
I made around with my salvation and I prepare for the judgement
Where you must get chest tights for all of that thug shit
Measure myself so sick with regret throwin' up on the judgement
And even all the dope can buy all the lawyers in all the world can't push this
Thought that you would help, but you didn't, cause you was with all the bullshit
Why ya left the one who was in love with you
For the one you thought you was in love with
You thought all the shit that you got away
It was over with but it wasn't
Tell me how can I excuse it when I'm just usin' excuses
Man, the devil is a lie
(I am too still, still I'm rebukin' for life)
I hope the lord call my name, I don't need roll call
Hope they'll have to free my nigga Mick cause then my hood dies
So many bumps and bruises I took on this road, y'all
So every night I pray with faith before I doze off
Life ain't easy being me and life probly ain't easy bein' you
Here's what I think we should do, keep livin' our life until we trough
