| Lately, my luck has taken a turn for the worse
|
| I used to ride in luxury, now I’m heading for a hearse
|
| At least it feels that way, my day-to-day is full of suffering
|
| My headaches can’t be relieved by Aspirin or Bufferin
|
| Am I tougher than my problems? |
| I’d like to think so
|
| But every time I try to rise all I do is sink slow
|
| Like I’m out in the Pacific and my vessel capsized
|
| Seems like I been going through it since I got baptized
|
| (Mr. Jesus, I can feel him all up in my bones)
|
| Cause he be giving me game on how to live my life long
|
| Can’t forget about the angels in the psychiatric center
|
| Helping me to feel like I’m a winner
|
| Got me taking Lexapro, just so I can improve my mood
|
| It got me feeling like I’m giant, all obstacles better move
|
| Or get flattened in the process of me reaching to the top
|
| Ya’ll know that I’m the cream of the crop
|
| And all my people say
|
| Get your ass up out my way, Satan
|
| I got a mansion, robe, and a crown waiting
|
| Never again will you catch me living in sin
|
| Cause when the pearly gates open I wanna be stepping in
|
| Get your ass up out my way, Satan
|
| I got a mansion, robe, and a crown waiting
|
| I do away with you devils so I can make it to the top
|
| And remain sane, even when a nigga dealing with a lot
|
| I’m all alone, but guess what (that's all right)
|
| Facing my fears and producing tears (that's all night)
|
| Yeah, I’m a grown man but I still cry sometimes
|
| Cause I’m a sponge soaking up pain
|
| Trying to come out the rain
|
| I been doing right all my life
|
| And still suffering by murderers and crooks out here
|
| bubbling, I need a break
|
| So many decisions to make, I can’t concentrate
|
| Cause everybody in my life is so fake
|
| All the years that I wasted loving and trying to build
|
| With somebody who was never even feeling me for real
|
| I thought I had a family, but out the window it went
|
| With all my legal problems and all these beefing with 30 cents
|
| I’m a loner
|
| Pill on the post, solo on the corner
|
| Bitch don’t know nothing bout Joseph
|
| She just want Z-Ro to bone her
|
| But I’m old school, till I’m in my burial plot
|
| I just need a lady to dig me when I’m dealing with a lot
|
| Ain’t no happy feelings in the air
|
| So lately I been searching for happiness through my prayers
|
| Holy Father, can you hear me when I’m down on my knees?
|
| I need a bridge over troubled water, save me please
|
| I’m just a lost soul, trying to find it’s way back home
|
| Everything I love has been taken away from me, now I’m alone
|
| But it’s all good, tell me when the sun gon shine
|
| On this nothing ass motherfucking life of mine
|
| Momma, it been twenty years since I seen your face
|
| Do me a favor — ask God if I’m included in his grace
|
| Cause I’m feeling abandoned, like the last man standing
|
| So much poverty and pain, this ain’t the way that I planned it
|
| All I wanted was to make a little money and split
|
| Take care of my people and grow old with grandchildren and shit
|
| I’m still happy, even if my cases don’t get dropped
|
| And remain sane, even when a nigga dealing with a lot |
