[Intro]
I'm tired of these s**ers with all kinds of dough
I try but it seems like there is something I don't know
I wake up daily and try to get my hustle on
The legal way, cuz anything else would just crumble mom
But these dollars don't be adding up
A house divided cuz these times be subtracting trust
And this college degree don't mean sh** to me
Can't afford to be a bachelor let alone feed three
And now I'm trying sell a CD
Everybody's trying to be Jay, I'm just trying to be me
Or be free. But my stressors stack knee deep
And bad luck got my life on repeat
Damn I know there's somethings off course
Illegal way is fast dough, until you get caught
Or k**ed, and I don't want either
Sign of the cross when I walk out Jesus
Give me a sign that you see us
Or maybe u can hear us
No longer smiling we're grievers
Believers, but do u believe us
[Verse 1]
So I walk like no one hold me
d**h if you wanna dance, lets do it slowly
Back up back up since I'm no longer cozy
Clear minded when I do dirt all by my lonely
I mean what else I gotta do to get mine
A truth advocate but I've learned to detect lies
My goal is to make sure that my son gets the best life
And that my music lives forever when my flesh dies
The best prize is to see the stress walk away
Ill birth my vision but first wait til the water breaks
Keep a steady pace no room for any water breaks
The finish line is d**h so I hate that my heart will race
But f** it, that's just the life that I got planned for me
Watch out for my crew, my loot and my family
Live or be k**ed is my only strategy
Weight of the world but I'm not burning any calories
[Hook 2x]
I got all this pain
Maybe all this is just a facade
Every time that I pray. I recite
Let go and let God
[Verse 2]
I wanna live my life to the limit and love it
But my limit seems short I wanna go up above it
It seems like good luck doesn't want to visit me
So I'm planning on kidnapping luck with fortunes as the ransom fee
A whole new mentality
I pray when it's all done God doesn't abandon me
Cuz I believe that hard work presents the future
Or that God got a Sick sense of humor
So I invent a booster
That can help me cope with me being a loser
Cuz winning is really really far fetched
Unless I sell my soul for a price that's heartless
Yessir an Artist
A legacy is what I depart with
I guess hopes my best odds
So I kick back let go and let God
[Hook (x2)]
I got all this pain
Maybe all this is just a facade
Every time that I pray. I recite
Let go and let God
[Outro: Prayer]
Our father
Who grants me life on the daily
And has yet to ever fail me
I'm sorry for all the complaints
These aren't scars they're war paint
I just feel weak and tired
You gave me eyes to see the fire
Let these tears control the flame
