Can’t Take It

[Verse 1: Poetic Killa]

I’m just laid back thinkin’ ‘bout all this shit
How hard it’s been mostly how my father is
See the love ain’t important but the knowledge is
And I ain’t coming for half i’m here for all of it
And yeah it’s true pasts hinder success
If you let it, people wonder why I live on the edge
People dyin’ just to live but I live it to death
See the world took my heart but ain’t get rid of me yet
Easy to fail....hard to succeed
I swear it’s easy to go but harder to leave
Part of its hate and yeah the other part
Of its greed
I remember in them shelters we was starvin’ to eat
But with this life that you livin’ ain’t no limits to this
But my attitude was fuck it no resilience to quit
Never minding what has happened yo it is what it is
In other worlds..yeah, I was built for this shit

[Hook 1: Poetic Killa]

Dreams turn to nightmares I can’t shake it
So much on my mind but I can’t say it
Life’s got me in a hold and I can’t break it
Got me goin’ back and forth and i can’t take it

[Verse 2: Poetic Killa]

Minds racing but feeling there ain’t much to say
It’s always something how much can I fuckin’ take
You can only bend so far till your gonna break
See this life’s a constant battle ‘tween love and hate
Shit relentless like war in them trenches
Sometimes feeling I’m a need more than a blessing
This is me, so this ain’t how my story is ending
See people scream your failures but ignore your successes
Yeah...so walk in my shoes, adapt to my senses
You can’t see what I seen no matter the lenses
I do every single thing I do to mask my aggression
You can’t do what I do there ain’t no matching my efforts
All the shit I’ve gone through, of course i’m forever hurt
You play with fire and you’re always apt to getting burnt
It ain’t a loss but it’s really just a lesson learned
Cause I was built for the struggle like I said before

[Hook 2: Poetic Killa]

Dreams turn to nightmares I can’t shake it
So much on my mind but I can’t say it
Life’s got me in a hold and I can’t break it
Got me goin’ back and forth and i can’t take it

[Verse 3: Poetic Killa]

This world’s crazy i swear that i would never drown
See i’ve had it up to here and I’m a let it out
I made a promise to my pops i’ll never let em down
So I keep working in hopes for something better now
Never played you though only playing my position
Focused on the main goal, i’m tryna get it
I made some sacrifice taken hostage by ambition
But this life ain’t always go the way that I envisioned
....And see i’ve dealt with all the repercussions
Lord willing, me and God’ll have a deep discussion
So what’s the fight worth if you really leave with nothing?
And what’s this life worth if it ain’t meaning something?
...Mind of a warrior, flesh of a beast
Tryin’ to do what’s to be done for where i’m destined to be
Tryin’ to do it for my dad so he resting in peace
But why I feel like everybody's always messing wit me

[Hook 3: Poetic Killa]

Dreams turn to nightmares I can’t shake it
So much on my mind but I can’t say it
Life’s got me in a hold and I can’t break it
Got me goin’ back and forth and i can’t take it
