[Chorus: Kuntry Twang]
Ain't never had nothing and it's all on me
And in this life there ain't a damn thing free
Try and dig my way out while they try an' bury me
That's the life you lead when you born to the streets
Everywhere I look all I see is pain
Wishin' for sunshine all I see is rain
Try and get some rest, try and keep myself sane
Livin' day to day while I try an' maintain
[Verse 1: Lil' Round]
Yeah, another day above the ground
Time to get my hustle on
Cost of hard livin' well sooner till your dead and gone
Never had it given to me had to get it all on my own
Back and forth on this road like a game of ping pong
Lookin in the mirror thinkin' where's all the time gone
No matter how right I am something always goes wrong
Clutchin' for the sunshine but it's rainin' cats and dogs
Sittin' on the back porch, chillin' like I'm Boss Hogg
Rollin' with the Duke Boys hard to stay above the law
Morning keeps on calling, damn I hope I never miss a call
Down in the gutter where I land if I ever fall
Down in the trenches tryna make it with my southern drawl
Spend it how I live it yeah I see the writing on the wall
Read between the lines, there's been times when I had it all
Lookin' back on the past, there's been times that I paid the cost
Always been a gamblin' man times that I risked it all
It's all on me while I carry this burden
It's everyday lies while my heart keeps hurtin'
Journey that I'm on gonna keep on searchin'
I see a glimpse of the sun while the world keeps turnin'
[Chorus: Kuntry Twang]
Ain't never had nothing and it's all on me
And in this life there ain't a damn thang free
Try and dig my way out while they an bury me
That's the life you lead when you born to the streets
Everywhere I look all I see is pain
Wishin' for sunshine all I see is rain
Try and get some rest try and keep myself sane
Livin' day to day while I try and maintain
[Verse 2: Kuntry Twang]
Life is always filled with the hardest decisions
And keepin' everything on track is an everyday mission
And hind sights 20/20, try and find what I'm missin'
Get it while the gettin's good tryin' real hard to listen
Trying real hard to cope standin' in the wind pissin'
It seems i'll never dig out of this hole where I'm livin'
It's raining outside, I love to hear the thunder roll
Heartache and bad breaks drivin' down the country roads
Lookin' in the rearview and everything in slow-mo
Everything I had got it scrapin' by the window
Days slippin' by never promised with my eyes closed
Never have another day filled with the echos
My people dead and gone on the journey with them high hopes
Pourin' out liquor reminiscing 'bout my kin folk
Thinkin' 'bout my kids, love their smiles what I live for
Try and get 'em ready so they make it when they full grown
Regretin' lovin women who can have the heart they stepped on
The silver spoon is something cake is never had a grip on
So let the world spin laid back thinking while my mind roams
Put my heart to the test and try to keep a hold on
[Chorus: Kuntry Twang]
Ain't never had nothing and it's all on me
And in this life there ain't a damn thang free
Try and dig my way out why they an bury me
That's the life you lead when you born to the streets (Born to the streets)
Everywhere I look all I see is pain
Wishin' for sunshine all I see is rain
Try and get some rest
Try an keep myself sane
Livin' day to day while I try and maintain
