Lyrics

Yea

It's him

Mmm mmm mmm

Yea

I ain't ask to be born, now I'm tryna beat the struggle

Tryna beat the struggle, Tryna beat the struggle

I'm Grateful for what I got but I'm just tryna see it double

Tryna see it double, Tryna see it double

I ain't ask to be born, now I'm tryna beat the struggle

Tryna beat the struggle, Tryna beat the struggle

I'm Grateful for what I got but I'm just tryna see it double

Tryna see it double, Tryna see it double

I didn't asked to be born

Shipped to a fuck up place

Feel like a lottery pick

Feel like the number one slave

My talents getting exploited

Look at me up on the stage

And I ain't one to complain

But it's just one of them days

Against my will, now I gotta pay bills

I'm allowed to be alive, til the day I get killed

I arrived with a smile, everyday it's more still

Look around, everybody dead, in jail, or on pills

In the hood, we just tryna get bills

Bunch of crabs in the barrel

Ain't nobody tryna build

Ambulance pick you up, momma stuck with the bill

When you get packed up, momma stuck with the bill, still

You gon flip fries or flip pies

Credit card scams, that'll get you in some thighs

Adapting to the struggle, you gotta be quite wise

We wasn't made for the hood, coulda been nice guys

I ain't ask to be born, now I'm tryna beat the struggle

Tryna beat the struggle, Tryna beat the struggle

I'm Grateful for what I got but I'm just tryna see it double

Tryna see it double, Tryna see it double

I ain't ask to be born, now I'm tryna beat the struggle

Tryna beat the struggle, Tryna beat the struggle

I'm Grateful for what I got but I'm just tryna see it double

Tryna see it double, Tryna see it double

It's clear that I'm here for a real reason

Imagine if my pops said fuck it, I'm pulling out

I wouldn't of came home from college with more bills

Hitting hoes for validation, tryna get more kills

Wouldn't be tryna hit the studio to get more deals

When **** ran down, I wouldn't be upping the score still

Wouldn't be getting followed around the designer store, still

Asking if I need some help or wanna see more deals

It's the EBT baby

Wic baby, section eight baby

Rainy days turned sunny, now they wanna switch blade me

Shits crazy, this may be what made me

The one you call shady

But never called lazy

Comparing me to Jay-Z

I guess it makes sense, I'm from the Brook

But all my favorite rappers come from Queens

I didn't ask to be born

So I'm naturally torn

I didn't ask for this weight

I didn't ask to be great

I ain't ask to be born, now I'm tryna beat the struggle

Tryna beat the struggle, Tryna beat the struggle

I'm Grateful for what I got but I'm just tryna see it double

Tryna see it double, Tryna see it double

I ain't ask to be born, now I'm tryna beat the struggle

Tryna beat the struggle, Tryna beat the struggle

I'm Grateful for what I got but I'm just tryna see it double

Tryna see it double, Tryna see it double
