Verse 1 I'm up late and I can't sleep The dream I had Felt like I was in The nightmare on elm street I'm sweatin Palms itchin Can't enter me without any type Of medicine I just wanna Snooze off and forget about my day School stressin me over grades And I gotta walk to work Even in the rain What else could I say? Its life I deal with it everyday Imagine how life is gonna be After I graduate Bills after bills I could careless how you feel Cause I gotta make sh** happen Hopefully in 10 years I'll be dropping cla**ics After that I go back To my regular self I need help But nobody gonna do it My main influence Has been music Y'all n***as just talk I'm like Nike I just do it (Hook: Taew$) Just another day With ya boy cream From rags to riches yea Ya boy is living his dream Just another day With ya boy cream From rags to riches yea Ya boy is living his dream Verse 2 Times are ruff now I understand that But you can't just Up and leave and abandoned them Problems follow you No matter where you go It s**s when you don't Even have ya own cash flow I remember when my pops didn't have a whip So we use the metro Live about 30 minutes away Walking in the blizzard cold I spit stories Even though y'all don't know Too much about me You see Ya own friends eventually become Ya own enemies Doing so good All they do is just hate Ya people eating good And everything is great But there's people Who you thought Was ya dawg Become a snake (Hook) Verse 3 Every time I hear a siren It ain't nothing new Its probably Someone house on fire Or somebody dying Most people tell the truth But will still be consider lying This generation f** up Can't even get by without trying Walking down my block Uneven crack roads It ain't nothing new Hearing people Screaming with a hoarse throat Bayous dirty sewer water Sometimes I wish this world Was a bit calmer But you see This the sh** that revolves around us People that we don't even know Label us thugs So quickly to judge But people Will always commit sins And this the cycle That never seems to end Most n***as pretend to be Your day ones But when you struggling Who's there to depend on? Nobody And if they don't stick around f** em! I'm older now I gotta learn some ways That eventually reflect on me today And once I'm older I got mouths to feed Eventually I'll be proud of myself Till then Let a n***a be I'm only 17 with big dreams That I will eventually achieve But for now I gotta eat (Hook)
