Outro

Yo, what's going on? We all go thru hard times in life. Nothing comes easy. Nothing lasts forever in this life. But you gotta remember that after the dark comes the light. And you gotta keep fightin'
You gotta keep pushin'. Every day. Every dollar. Every second. Don't give up. Keep pushing for that fight

Verse 1:
Can't I wake up from this nightmare I'm livin' in?
I close my eyes and pray to God it's gone when I open them
I fill myself with anger and emotions I've bottled in
I guess that's just the way it is, what the fuck the problem is?
I'm over this, can't sleep, my legs weak, I've lost hope, don't save me
These streets took my heart away, my mind wants to erase me
I'm crazy and lately I hate what has made me
The person I am now is not someone that I can face clean
But your addiction is taking over, your life is no longer yours
And tonight the Devil will show you the price of what you were doin'
While you layin' cold on the floor, family find you not breathing
Your face is covered with sores, older brothers can see it
Your mother still can't believe it, your little sister keep prayin'
Give her something to believe in, please Jesus, you gotta help us
The murder rate looking selfish, the homeless women and children
Fight every day for some breakfast
My mind is feeling neglected, I starve myself from affection
Emotionally disconnected, the poster child of helpless
Now tell me what do you see when you're looking down here at me
Cuz I'm not feeling like a person, no I'm not a human being
I feel washed up and used, cut, burned and bruised
You win some, you lose some, just bite down then chew
Fight now or move if this life's not for you
I will gladly take your spot, I can fill those shoes
It all started as a youngin’, skippin’ school, chasin’ hunnids
Hangin’ around some motherfuckers that never amount to nothin’
Not knowin’ the path we runnin’ on would lead us to hell
We ain’t worried, man, we young and got a story to tell
And I bet that they all gon’ listen when everything’s fuckin’ missin’
Your life is a premonition, lose sight of what was once envisioned
You’ll fight, yeah, you’ll go the distance, your right to get thru the sentence
Frustrated way past your limits if you had some to begin with
I wanted to know your pain, needed to k now your thirst
So I let it flow thru my veins, I regret it for what it’s worth
I was young, I was hurt, you weren’t there even when you were
Your brains and your veins, it’s a shame what’s in your shirt
Let me hear your heart speak, where the fuck is the love?
I keep on screamin’ at the sky, lookin’ for answers above
And these demons won’t let me live, yeah, they promise that I ain’t shit
Without ‘em I just won’t make it, give up man it’s time to quit
I won’t, nawh, I won’t break, get the fuck back from my plate
Me and my boys out here eatin’, you buffoons ain’t got the taste
Yeah we destined for greatness and they never gon’ shake us
We the eye of the storm that’s headed straight for your playlist
Replay this
Chorus (Joshua Golden):
And they said get your head out the clouds
Boy you better stop dreamin’
They said your chance is more like one in a million
They said that you better get a job cuz you’re never gonna make it
But I said when I make it to the top I’ma member what they said
They said what they said, they said what they said
They said, when I make it to the top I’ma member what they said
