Tha Feeling

Keeping my eyes on the prize manifesting my destiny
 Even though this life keeps on testing me
 I'm struggling against it, hoping that it don't get the best of me
 Trying to do this music professionally
 It's tryna get the rest of me even though I put my all in it
 Keep it authentic, borderline schizophrenic
 You losers need a clinic
 'cause if you think you seeing my flow
 you must be tripping off of hallucinogenics
 Even though I'm tired of living I still try and strive to be different
 While I'm alive and kicking
 Maybe my mind be tripping, the time is ticking
 The lines are written Inside of scrolls that are tied and zippened
 If you find the scriptures, unfold the scrolls
 And behold a folktale that has yet to be told
 The verbiage make it seems like the weaponry's old
 But if you do the knowledge, the path will be shown king
 Come and walk inside my shoes for a day
 I guarantee you wouldn't wanna walk this way
 They say it gets harder before it gets better
 I'm losing my mind tryna keep it together
 In case you ain't heard, I'm tired of life
 Tired of being the good guy, and trying to do right
 I don't smoke, I don't drink, I ain't on the block selling
 I need to get a job, yeah I know stop yelling
 January 2019 was a bad time
 But that was the time that I wrote the bulk of these sad rhymes
 I feel I had to capture what I was feeling
 What I was thinking when I saw that fiery ceiling
 Looking up at that dark smoke wondering why
 The universe is shitting on me from way up high
 Out of the whole apartment the room that I'm in burns
 Whoever wanna do me bad now's your turn
 I'm trying to keep it positive and find the lesson to be learned
 Gotta work harder until the tables are completely turned
 From bad to good, until we out of the hood
 And we no longer have to get it out of the mud, how real is that
 Come and walk inside my shoes for a day
 I guarantee you wouldn't wanna walk this way
 They say it gets harder before it gets better
 I'm losing my mind tryna keep it together
 Being forced to live out of hotel rooms and couch hopping
 Got me ready to suit up like Al Sharpton
 But in garbs that are way more felonious
 .40 got sticks like the legs of a boney MILF
 But I gotta keep my mind out of the gutta and
 Keep positive thoughts even throughout the struggling
 My mother, and my sis and her five kids
 Don't deserve to go through half the bullshit that they did
 Got me feeling like BIG and Pac, I'm dying to live
 Trump got us questioning survival and shit
 Government shutting down, on top of this bullshit
 No conspiracy theories we know who's the culprit
 All because you wanna build a wall
 That nobody in the country even wants to pay for
 How the fuck you trying to build a wall around the border
 When Flint, Michigan still needs water, you piece of shit
 Come and walk inside my shoes for a day
 I guarantee you wouldn't wanna walk this way
 They say it gets harder before it gets better
 I'm losing my mind tryna keep it together
 Come and walk inside my shoes for a day
 I guarantee you wouldn't wanna walk this way
 They say it gets harder before it gets better
 I'm losing my mind tryna keep it together
