[Hook]
I run these streets
Keep my mind on the money yes imma grind till they love me and know me
I get no sleep
If it's raining or sunny yeah imma hustle and i'll be an OG
I chase my dreams
Yeah they loving to hate me but imma focus on making all this green
I will succeed
Cus there's gotta be a better place
Looking forward for the better days (Aye)
[Verse 1]
Always where the money at
Better get your hustle up
Never sleep insomniac
Think I got insomnia
I was posted on the block
In the streets you rap or bop
Trap or starve
Young superstar used to rap for props
My head spinnin' feel like i'm a damn victim
Steady with my music, life bruises anxiety kicks in
Bills due eviction, why my moms keep getting sicker
I'd give up my whole career so I could find a cure for cancer
I pray to god for answers, really got a lot of questions
Why we going through these struggles, I'm just looking for some leverage
In and out of depression
My mind-state say hesitate
Walk a couple miles in my shoes you better levitate
You don't know me, but still my name through yo teeth
I been in this so long i'm tryna make it to an OG
I keep it low-key
Most of these people phony
Them dark nights I roam streets
All alone
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
I been out here tryna grind a million ways
It feel like a million days
sh** i'm looking for some change
Day and night I would stay up
I been grinding my way up
Blessed today that I woke up, now I gotta stay focused
Caught in the moments, like when am I getting noticed
I been out here through the coldest, we hustle when it be snowin'
Felt like five below
Standing at the corner store
Pocket full of baggies, homie had a pocket full of stones
Damn this world is cold, swear I gave this sh** my soul
Three days, same cloths out here looking for some hope
How the story goes, I stay working on my craft
Though we went our separate paths
Know we always have a past
No I ain't gon' let it up
I can get enough
Waiting for that day to come, patient out here every month
I keep it low-key
Most of these people phony
Livin' to be an OG
Word
[Hook]
[Bridge]
I get no sleep
Forgetting bout my past and the old me
Every night and hours moving slowly
Lost inside my mind i'm getting no sleep
On these cold streets
Nobody ever really truly knows me
Every night and hours moving slowly
Lost inside my mind i'm getting no sleep
Looking for the better days
Make it out of poverty, dealing with all my pain
Some things will never change
Staring out my window see the rain
Looking for the better days (x2)
