Lyrics

Mic check, one two, huh
Headphones, Lil' Dap? Yeah
Uh, ha!
Yo, there comes a time in a man's life when
Feel like you got nowhere to turn
Don't sweat it yo, you gon' make it, check it
Hey yo, open the book of life and take a look
Try to become a good soul from a modern day crook
But I, seem to have lost my way
Somewhere between putting the gat down and kneeling to pray
Is it my timing, or the state that my mind's in
That keeps me from climbing, straight holding me back?
And I know God saying, "Son, why are you loading that gat?"
But I got enemies, and fiends will sell their soul for a sack
It's a sad fact, but no one ever said this Earth was a fair place
Especially when you try and go up a down staircase
I know how them tears taste, but in the back of my mind
I know it's gon' be alright
Find my way out of darkness and into the light
Is it life I love, or life I dread?
Try and keep my spirits up, better days ahead, yeah!
Sometimes I feel like giving up
This life is hard, I've had enough
But I know I'm gon' find a way
Sometimes I feel like giving up
The stress and problems just too much
But I know there's a better day
And you never can tell what life's got in store for you
I'm sick of waking up with nothing to look forward to
Deep depression got me tripping, my grip on life is slipping
Never in my life have I been so sick of living
But I, gotta make it through the rain
'Cause the pressure and the pain is
Just a part of the game called life
Where you either bow the fuck down or you gain your stripes
And if I pay the price for this life I lead
Lord have mercy, better days ahead
I sacrifice sweat and blood so my work can be spread
Even though my better days ain't quite here yet
And you can bet, they want us in jail or in the streets
And you can bet, they'd rather us fail than succeed
I appreciate life through its ups and downs
But I'ma prove 'em all wrong before I hit the ground
Sometimes I feel like giving up
This life is hard, I've had enough
But I know I'm gon' find a way
Sometimes I feel like giving up
The stress and problems just too much
But I know there's a better day
I've come to the conclusion that this life's a test
My mind's a mess, still I seek righteousness
I'm trying to find success, but it's hard with no guidance
When your only means of money got you paranoid of sirens
Believe me homie, I've been in them shoes
And I won't give up 'til I become living proof
That the rain'll wash away tomorrow if not today
Where the skies ain't gray and if you listen when I pray
I'm trying to make some happiness out this nasty mess
Sick of being so damn depressed
Fed up with the struggle and the stress
Ready to hang up my scale and give this hustle a rest
Try and keep my mind straight, focus I pray
Don't let my time waste 'cause I'll be hopeless and dead
Remember what I said, keep them hopes alive
Better days ahead, we gonna survive, come on!
Sometimes I feel like giving up
This life is hard, I've had enough
But I know I'm gon' find a way
Sometimes I feel like giving up
The stress and problems just too much
But I know there's a better day
Sometimes I feel like giving up
This life is hard, I've had enough
But I know I'm gon' find a way
Sometimes I feel like giving up
The stress and problems just too much
But I know there's a better day
Yeah, that's how that shit would go
