Struggle

about

I'm just trying to change my situation. Listen to my new single "Struggle" now.

lyrics

I'm so tired of dealing with the bullshit.

I'm just tryna change my situation. (Yeah)

Putting all my pain into the studio.

Only time I ever get to vent. Yeah, yeah.

I done made a bunch of sacrifices. Plenty sleepless nights spent alone.

I put everybody on my back, yeah yeah. But still I had to get it on my own.

Tired of paying bills that I can't afford. If it ain't gon get me paid, I don't need it. I don't fuck with it, I'm fed up with it, all these rich niggas probably don't deserve what they given.

These days everyone a rapper, everyone a star. Labels giving deals out for charity, it isn't hard. Do not lie to me, tell me "its about the numbers". When you signing nobodies with no singles on the charts, oh...

Yeah I see the game, see the politics. But I'm independent, I don't lobby for your party, kid. I don't fuck around with the blah-blah, I'm on my job, job...might just blow some la-la, to get my mind off, yeah.

All these meetings Nothing but a waste of time yeah. How you see the future sitting right across you. Triple, quadruple, quin-threat. Fly as a Quinjet, it's a Marvel how you agents tryna move.

How you let a top notch talent sit with you 40 minutes, say he nice but you not gonna move on him? How you keep your job, riding on the one nigga making hits, but all the others you "discover" ain't doing shit?

How you say it's all about the numbers but you signing nobodies, paying rent in mid-city, in a duplex?

No catalog, maybe got about 5 full songs, but you let the goat walk out the building?

Hook

I'm just tired of the struggle nigga...

Ain't no one gon put me on...

No, no...gotta play the game with no cheat codes, and do it solo, so when I'm winning ain't got time to hear you whine, you a major waste of time...

Gon and let em put you on...

Lord please just gimme glow up, I need more bucks, I want more life with your help or it's no help, NIGGA!!!

Verse

Yeah, everybody gotta move to LA. I'm just tryna dodge going there broke. I don't feel like couch surfing, make a nigga nervous, I don't trust niggas, keep em arm's length at the most

You gon have a lot of shit to prove with me, I refuse to let my situation turn me to a little hoe. Walking round palms up, mouth open wide on my knees tryna swallow shit I really can't stomach.

Sheesh.

What the fuck is going on these days? I can't believe niggas really gotta do the shit they been doing. I ain't hip to it, I'm a young nigga with a old soul, chipped shoulders and a front middle tooth.

Add the nails to it, I'm gonna fight for it, go and try to stop me, at this point I ain't got none to lose. Somehow I got it all to give though, everybody take from me, get they wave from me, shit, but it's cool.

As a cucumber, as an ice lodge, a fucking igloo. On my Eskimo shit, like fuck the whole world too. Fuck fake friends, temporary "situationships" with no energy, you all dead to me.

Please no one read a eulogy or sing a few songs, shed tears, no proper burial, just drop the body right here. Leave it for the birds like the bullshit I'm tryna kill, if you not Gon help me let me take the wheel

They say you are what you listen to. If that's the case then I am music. I'm not a rapper, or singer-songwriter, producer, drummer, guitarist or lyricist. I'm all of those things. And the only term for that kind of person is...musician. So that's what I am, in every sense of the word. Music is me. But even the Bible tells us...music still has a Creator. This is how I make mention of His name. ... more
