based off the emotion I felt during my time of hardship, homelessness, and struggle. |
I been poor all my life so i ain't new to recession Seen people committed suicide over living without money in their possession Being broke is one of the causes of the disorder called depression Praying for a blessing but in return get a lesson not knowing the blessing is in the lesson Bills keep coming and still I can't see no funding Times are tight you can even save a little something It's quick to spend but what you saved so long for nothing Be for real I can see no fun in stunting Keep it a hundred instead of cheating and fronting I worked a nine to five then when I got off work I sold herb five to nine served nothing less than a dime catch me in a good mood maybe I'll let it go for five I'm a hustler no matter how you look at me even if you call me small time Too many nights without meals couldn't sleep in peace So the next time I eat, I'll make sure I feast Mind of a barbarian heart of a beast You couldn't walk in my shoes, you can only smell my feet I never took them off because I was making moves braking rules After seeing people with degrees unemployed, it still would be the same if I stayed in school You can have brains but without money you're blatant fool This not just a song, this is what I observed going on If you feel perturb and think what I am saying is absurd then correct me if I'm wrong. |
