“Ain"t Easy Being Me” is the promoting single released for Doowop’s first EP “Woptober”.
The music video intro is a recreation of the classic scene from the classic gangster hood movie “Boyz n the Hood (1991)” and the whole music video is about being in the classroom.
Doowop talks in this song about...
[Intro: Doowop, the teacher & other students]
Who the original founders of Glory University?
Class
Soulja Boy, shit, he is the first to do everything
Why do you always have something smart to say?
'Cause I'm a comedian
Oooh
Is that right? Well Mr. comedian, why don't you come up and teach the class then?
On foenem, I can do that
Everybody know what this at?
That's Africa, I know that
Yeah, foenem in the hood say "everybody come from Africa" even light asian people, even white people come from Africa, shit
I ain't from Africa, I'm from Glo Gang Mafia
It ain't easy being me, found some pain that I can't sleep
Mhmm, it ain't easy bеing me
Swear it ain't easy
[Chorus]
It ain't еasy being me, found some pain that I can't sleep
Some of my mans say that I changed but I'm still in arms rich
I'm still in the streets, I just move differently
What I learned in the streets, I swear a teacher couldn't teach
All on my own
My brother dead, now he gone
I went through this shit all alone
I talk to you on my own, through these songs
(It ain't easy)
[Verse]
But now look, I'm the man now
I just landed in LA on the radar
I been runnin' this shit up, boy, I can't lie
And if a nigga want smoke, it's a campfire
I don't even trust fam' now
They say "I'm lit", they tryna hit me on my line now
Now all them texts, all yo messages unread now
I'm just sayin' I rubber band, a 100 grand now
I'm just sayin' now, I ain't playin' now
I ain't got time to fake no love, I just see it now
If you play with mine, I ain't gon' lie, I'ma just lay 'em down
FN so quiet, some with the silencer, it won't make a sound
But I'm the man, whatever the price I gotta pay it now
[Chorus]
It ain't easy being me, found some pain that I can't sleep
Some of my mans say that I changed but I'm still in arms rich
I'm still in the streets, I just move differently
What I learned in the streets, I swear a teacher couldn't teach
All on my own
My brother dead, now he gone
I went through this shit all alone
I talk to you on my own, through these songs
(It ain't easy)
