[Intro]
Y'all gotta feel me on this
Every ghetto feel me on this
[Chorus]
It's bad when you're broke (Alright), trust me, I know
This is everyday living for me (Hey, hey)
Can y'all feel me when I say that? Yeah
I'm telling you it's bad when you're broke, trust me, I know
This is everyday living for me, yes
And I'm still in the gutter, mayne
[Verse 1]
Lord give me a sign
And let me know when You'll bless this life of mine
'Cause it's hard hustlin' in these streets, oh yeah
Lord give me a sign
And let me know when these old bill collectors
And my baby mama will quit stressin' me
Somebody sing it's bad
[Chorus]
It's bad when you're broke (When you're broke), trust me, I know
This is everyday living for me
Can y'all feel me when I say that? Yeah (Can you sing with me?)
I'm telling you it's bad when you're broke, trust me, I know
This is everyday living for me, yes (And I'm still)
And I'm still in the gutter, mayne
[Verse 2]
What you know about chasing your dream, government cheese
Praying so long you got blood on our knees
Watching mama cry, going to bed at night
Tryna be a man, tears all in your eyes
All my degrees come from the streets
My punk ass daddy never did shit for me
But I'ma stand tall through it all
But if I had some dope things would be different, y'all
[Chorus]
It's bad when you're broke (Yeah), trust me, I know
This is everyday living for me
(This is everyday, everyday living for me, y'all)
Can y'all feel me when I say that? Yeah
I'm telling you it's bad when you're broke (Oh, it's so bad), trust me, I know
This is everyday living for me, yes
And I'm still in the gutter, mayne
[Bridge]
(What am I supposed to do?)
What am I supposed to do when the lights are off?
And what I'm supposed to do when the gas is off?
(Somebody tell me)
Baby in the crib crying for something to eat
Baby mama in my ear yelling at me
So it's time to hit the streets, catch somebody slippin'
And creep up behind them and carry out my mission
I wish I didn't have to live my life this way
But that's how it is when you're in the gutter, mayne
[Chorus]
It's bad when you're broke (Oh, oh), trust me, I know
This is everyday living for me (Everyday living for me)
Can y'all feel me when I say that? Yeah (In the ghetto)
I'm telling you it's bad when you're broke (I know you know), trust me, I know
This is everyday living for me, yes (This is everyday living for me)
And I'm still in the gutter, mayne
(What you know about government cheese?)
It's bad when you're broke, trust me, I know
(What you know about chasing your dreams?)
This is everyday living for me
Can y'all feel me when I say that? Yeah
(Hey, what you know about praying so long?)
I'm telling you it's bad when you're broke, trust me, I know
(What you know about being alone?)
This is everyday living for me, yes
(My daddy was never at home)
And I'm still in the gutter, mayne
