Lil G - Doin My Best lyrics

[Chorus] (A-Game) I'm standing at the top - I'm all up in my zone But when I'm feeling down it's like I'm feeling all alone As I sit here in the booth working on these sk**s I hone Ignoring everybody cause I'm shutting off my phone I wonder if I'll make it, it's tough becoming patient When everything you're working for just seems like talent wasted Started with the basics, now it's hard to face it I hope to make it in this game and be one of the greatest; I'm Doin My Best [Verse 1] (A-Game) Yo, I was raised in the suburbs of 34209 Through my raps you'll probably find a couple stories of my life I sit up late at night and work on verses that I write Will I make it in this game? I won't go down without a fight I've burnt a couple bridges, but I think I've learned my lesson Drama left and that sh** has always got me stressin' f** school it's turned my mind into a lethal weapon My mom's trying to make me graduate, she just don't get the message I play the radio and all I hear is lame a** cats And I don't know what the fu*k is to blame for that I know I tend to write a lot about some gangsta rap But if you really knew me, then you'd know my life just ain't with that Don't get it twisted, before you start hatin' And sayin' that I'm fake just realize that it's entertainment I'm tryin' to make a statement, so face it, embrace this Music to your ears, I'm a make it, I'm just waitin' [Chorus] (A-Game) I'm standing at the top - I'm all up in my zone But when I'm feeling down it's like I'm feeling all alone As I sit here in the booth working on these sk**s I hone Ignoring everybody cause I'm shutting off my phone I wonder if I'll make it, it's tough becoming patient When everything you're working for just seems like talent wasted Started with the basics, now it's hard to face it I hope to make it in this game and be one of the greatest; I'm Doin My Best [Verse 2] (Lil G) Before you call me fake, just know what I been through No matter the size, come and take a trip in my shoes Worrying about if I'll ever make it past twenty-two So don't judge a person when you don't even have a clue Everything I been through it's just a different struggle Life is a game, but it is worth a juggle People come and leave popping sh** like a bubble Got the pieces so try to put it together like a puzzle I could tell you sh** that you probably wouldn't believe Like let's switch eyes and tell me what you see My dad pa**ed away when I was seventeen So I pray and know he is always looking down on me I'm not trying to preach, but cherish what you have When it rains, it pours, it s**s yes that's a fact You go through some bumps and you're low on cash But listen when I say live your life it ain't that bad [Chorus] (A-Game) I'm standing at the top - I'm all up in my zone But when I'm feeling down it's like I'm feeling all alone As I sit here in the booth working on these sk**s I hone Ignoring everybody cause I'm shutting off my phone I wonder if I'll make it, it's tough becoming patient When everything you're working for just seems like talent wasted Started with the basics, now it's hard to face it I hope to make it in this game and be one of the greatest; I'm Doin My Best [Verse 3] (Bird) Confusion, I'm losin' my mind I feel stupid Clueless with problems, I need a solution Drinking my issues away, Mary Jane ease the brain Life pa**es too quick, I'm in the slow lane I reign the throne, I restrain from saying "no" Known to flow in tone, I'm young but I act grown In my zone I rock the bed, like Flinstone Fled the cops, my identity is unknown Roam the streets of Manatee I'm not asleep Find me in the booth with a beat, and a mixed drink Wishing I could blink, and everything would be in sync But then I think "f** a wish, go to sleep and dream!" About everything in this world you can't see 1-2-3, A-B-C, F-T-P, you know me Damn bro I'm a winner Bingo, Yahtzee On my k**er bee, the BPD couldn't stop me! [Chorus] (A-Game) I'm standing at the top - I'm all up in my zone But when I'm feeling down it's like I'm feeling all alone As I sit here in the booth working on these sk**s I hone Ignoring everybody cause I'm shutting off my phone I wonder if I'll make it, it's tough becoming patient When everything you're working for just seems like talent wasted Started with the basics, now it's hard to face it I hope to make it in this game and be one of the greatest; I'm Doin My Best (x2)
