What I Got to Show for It? |
My dad was broke from chasing a high |
I’m broke from chasing a dream |
Man I’m just tryna survive |
Underwater is hard to breathe |
I be putting in work |
But what I got to show for it? |
I be putting in work |
But tell me what I got to show for it? |
I be putting in work (Work!) |
Almost everyday I clock in |
Grateful for the time allotted |
No distractions man I’m locked in |
Dropping tracks that are knocking |
Pulling all nighters like a locking |
My results got me boxed in |
Trapped like my father but I’m not him (Sheesh!) |
But it look similar, my mind is a Cinema |
I believe in me and God’s will but what if we in from Ninevah |
Please telling me «To be still», don’t worry when I hit Him up |
However, I must admit it’s hard getting by with the minimum |
Man, I wish I could give my feel to the world |
They deserve it (They deserve it!) |
Sometimes I contemplate about my future |
And I get nervous (I get nervous!) |
I hope I’m being a blessing |
More than I’m being a burden (Being a burden!) |
I don’t wanna wait until I stand before the justice |
And know my verdict (Know my verdict!) |
When it’s all said and done, it doesn’t measure up (Up!) |
To my expectations tryna get theses letters up (Yuh!) |
That’s what sad about it, man I work hard (I work hard!) |
Yet it feels like we are so far |
My dad was broke from chasing a high |
I’m broke from chasing a dream |
Man I’m just tryna survive |
Underwater is hard to breathe |
I be putting in work |
But what I got to show for it? |
I be putting in work |
But tell me what I got to show for it? |
Thank God for my Grandma |
Grateful for my Grandpa |
Selflessly stood in the gap |
When my dad violated man laws |
He was blowing money fast (Fast!) |
Didn’t even bring the check home |
Checking mom’s purse for the stash |
So he could hit the ave and collect snow |
Reckless, didn’t care about the repos or evictions |
Careless about convictions, visitations, rehabs, prisons |
Should’ve been homeless to the his decisions |
Granny had a room for us, I picked a twin |
Mom slept on the floor hard like a Rock Fox Force |
Trouble made me better (Better) |
On average, I out Run-DMC's «Tougher Than Leather» (Leather) |
Storms coming, won’t let up (Woo!) |
Get knocked down and I get up and inscribing these letters |
But what takes it’s toll is being a slave to these debtors (Man that’s real!) |
Should my family have to endure this bumpy ride? |
(Bumpy ride) |
What’s the difference between my dream and getting high? |
I’m exaggerating but it feels like we’re barely getting by (Getting by) |
Question is, is my dream a drug disguise? |
My dad was broke from chasing a high |
I’m broke from chasing a dream |
Man I’m just tryna survive |
Underwater is hard to breathe |
I be putting in work |
But what I got to show for it? |
I be putting in work |
But tell me what I got to show for it? |
