It Ain'T Easy

I take a shot of my liquor and inhale the weed now I think I'm strong enough to face the madness My partner got a pocket full of weed laced with hash Just got a phone call from my niggas telling me that two of my childhood friends just die It’s a damn shame when will we ever change Got a nine should I pull it or let my niggas die They tell me to keep my faith in God and just trust him he will bring you out of your troubles But it ain't easy in this life of mines Hiding from the cops and getting calls from my baby mama talking about you need to pay the child support 20 My life is so stressful never easy don't have a family to go to when I'm feeling lonely or need some attention Short on money because of the damn economy and the days couldn't get any worser for a black man Cops harassing me because they think I'm a criminal with the hood over my head I pray to God everyday to get rid of my enemies because they're driving me crazy I know that my destination is hell But I try everyday to live right and I have to do what I’m capable of doing to survive in this world Because it ain’t easy from selling dope to robbing banks I got to have this money to pay the rent Both of my buddies doing time in the pen While my father left me at the age of twelve leaving me to be the man And my mother wasn't any better sniffing up coke getting high everyday leaving me *****to eat And I know that’s petty but that’s how I was raise doing *****on my own thuggin on these streets 21Because its nothing left for me so don't mind me if you see me on the streets Because I rather be dead then living this life of mines it ain't easy
