Hey um, you never pick up thuggy

I don't even know why I'm leaving this message

I just, I just can't keep pretending everything is okay

Like have you ever felt like no matter how hard you fight

You just keep loosing

Like every time you get back up, life knocks you down again

I've been hurting for so long and it's like nobody even notice

Like I'm screaming for help but no one hears me

I don't know how much longer I can keep this up

I mean, I was talking to KEEM the other day and

He was telling me how he be staying up all night sometimes

Figuring out how to make it

Anyway, I just hope things get better for you I really do

Have you ever been hurting (oh yeah)

Have you ever been broken (oh no)

Have you ever stayed up all night thinking how you make it on your own (make it on your own)

Have you ever got forgotten (oh no)

Have you ever been known (naa)

Have you ever even grind so hard but never really got to ball (never got to ball gang uh)

All eyes on the price cause we ain't rich

Brothers dying, mamas crying it's the same shit

Fii ngai work beh deeh they still gon' say you ain't shit

I'm from the trenches so you might never relate to this

When you're from where I'm from gotta stay cautious

Have you ever lose a **** you love that still be hurting

**** this is pain and you know that's for certain

I'm from a place where they celebrate your losses

Fi danga danu ken dula dimbaleh, nyii dila emaleh

Instead nyu baila fofu nyii dila jhema asil aii defanteh

But harr ma mangih nyow suma family is who stand for

Like it or you don't i ain't got options so i stand on it

Lungs filled with smoke it's the only way i get by

Too low in my life so my brothers know i stay high

The streets so cold you can ask Trencch Kidd he knows that

All praise to the Most High

Have you ever been hurting (ever been hurt eyy)

Have you ever been broken (oh no)

Have you ever stayed up all night thinking how you make it on your own (make it on your own)

Digi gaage mununj feeyy amunj ken ku len hint

Mothers crying sons are dying need a way to fix this

But we turning a blind eye and the pain is going on (going on)
