DjayCas - The Story lyrics

[Hook] All they know is struggle, all they know is pain All they know is find a way out don't come back again Everybody know the story(Everybody do) Everybody know the story 'cause it never seem to change All they know is struggle, all they know is pain All they know is find a way out don't come back again Everybody know the story(Everybody do) Everybody know the story 'cause it always stay the same [Verse 1: Rewind] Shorty was a bright girl she grew up too fast So she got a lot of knowledge but also a lot of a** She just trying to make it she ain't got a lot of cash Her mama strung out, what the f** is a dad This the average on the ave but we so folded blinded That we don't care to care, and we don't care to ask Until it's in our fam or we got friends attached Can't pay for her cla**es, using other a**ets Mixed up with a bad pimp, she getting paid to have s** That's the only way she know to support her little bro But now he got to grow knowing that his sister hoe How come we don't think outcomes, we just know; That cannibus lit, hitting a b**h, period missed we hear it and dip 9 months later she sh**ting a kid Thinking about sh** she shouldn't of did Smoking on what come in a brick, can't pay for it So laying for deals, and all of that sh** That I just spit, is a revolving door reoccurring again [Hook] [Verse 2] Little homie cool he just trying to go to school Couple scuffles with the other n***as can't afford new shoes Everyday he hear the news, about these older dudes Getting they rocks off on his older sister Pitch rocks to his OG too, no options for him to move His mind state he gon' need loot Talking to the bosses on the southwest loop Front him a zip he flipped it two, 14 years old drops out school Two years later he that dude, fresh white tee and Jordans too Winter, Carhart jacket, Timbs, to help his mom get out is why he got in But if she want to stay, she might as well cop from him Ain't that sh** so opposite, but when karma is all in debt Reality always seems to find a way to cash his checks Speaking of, he got one, on the way and he don't pay For the one he has, he's 6 months pa**ed Child support, so there's so more, BM BS Things couldn't be less, is what it seems But that scene we just seen, always seems to reoccur again [Hook] [Verse 3] This is a call to action for the question that I'm asking 'cause we all know the story (Yeah we do) And we all know the problems (yeah that's true) And they love to hear us spit them (yeah they do) But they hate to hear us solve them (damn, that's true) Nah cause, we never spit the positive Always depositing more possible problems Making it impossible for us to ever be progressing So I'm asking, how come? Negativity seems to spread faster But you have my oath, right here as a rapper That I'll do better, yup until my last breath Because I've realized and come to grips That the first step in change is just a step In order to make a change you gotta make a step Yeah you gotta make a step [Hook] [Outro] If all we know is struggle and all we know is pain How come we don't find a way out then come back and change? Huh?
