Life a funny thing, you know, and it's hard.
Sometimes I feel like I'm livin' bar by bar.
Only thing that keeps me goin',
it's a way to escape
Grab a pen and a pad,
Try to rewrite my fate
But everytime I think it's gettin' betta
It gets worse
If there's one thing I learned about life,
Man it hurts
A lot more than you could ever spit in a verse
And for you to maintain
Gotta do whatever work
The sun shine a little,
But it rains alot
And let me tell you,
It's a long, hard road to the top
Just cuz you got money don't mean the pain stop
I've been broke,
Still hungry ya'll, I ain't forgot
Eviction notices, no phones, lites out
How we fit all them people in that one little house
Mom, Dad, know it was hard,
But it all worked out
Thanks for supportin' me,
Even when you both had doubts
And Jas, you know I love you,
And be good to them kids
I'm doin' all this so we can all live big
And I know sometimes I can be a bitch
But shit
I'm sick and tired of being poor,
Man I'm gettin' these chips
Sick of fightin' over the billz
The family sharin' one pair of wheels
Not bein' on havin' all these damn skillz
Sick of people sayin' cuz I'm white, I'm not real
Yo, fuck my skin, Look within,
I'm just ill
