Caught Up In A Struggle |
Move with precision, decisions to make, fakes to shake |
Talk a good game but yo, your stash ain’t no wins |
I’m in the biz of makin' it big and express myself |
Through jams that they even bop to in Japan, my man |
Change for a dollar so I can make this call |
Get my money correct cause I been broke too long |
Gotta keep it legit, can’t be locked for years |
Find me a 9 to 5, blood sweat and tears |
But can it work boss man smack the jerk for tryin' to jerk me |
Thinkin' I can’t see inconsistency in my currency |
Now I’m back out on the street |
Walking these dogs for ends meet, life’s not sweet |
But I still rock rhymes to beats |
Put it together maybe we can make an explosion |
But it takes time, record labels mess up your mind |
You could press rewind and catch a dose one more time |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, man |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, like that |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, man |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, like that |
Gimme mine and I’ll spark the chart like flint |
Money spent back to start, who wants parts of this |
Crisp on compact disk but don’t you diss the vinyl mix |
I got the hook up at the crib |
That’s my escape from this world today, watch 'em blow up |
Then deflate like a souffle, I see it every day, all day |
I’m out for the gold, forget the silver and the bronze |
Gotta make dough, send home to wifey and moms |
Invest in real estate, computers and all this |
Plan’s flawless, bumpy roads, I’m ready |
So all you fakers get jetty or get chopped up like confetti |
I’m on a mission for this permanent position |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, man |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, like that |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, man |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, like that |
On the bricks, scuffed up kicks, not a hint of dough |
Lost my job, now I’m livin' like a slob |
Re-plan regroup, gotta hook up with my make money troops |
Two scoops of loops, studio, time to blow |
Hip-hop scene flooded, everybody gettin' blunted |
A& R’s frontin', guess I gotta prove somethin' |
Over percussion, Shabaam Sahdeeq rushin' like the Kremlin |
Got mc’s tremblin' in their lab, take a stab at me |
Superior with word play |
Stress overtakes the fakes everyday all day |
Rugged like Broadway, no time for horseplay |
In the struggle don’t you lower your level |
Gotta take charge like credit, need to start talkin' aesthetic |
Cause when you lose your chance you will regret it, get it |
Lyrics embedded in your head like memories |
Remember these Us3 melodies |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, man |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, like that |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, man |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, like that |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, man |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, like that |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, man |
Caught up in a struggle |
You got me caught up in a struggle like that, like that |
