(Verse 1)
I was born in 1998, no C-section it was Section 8
My grandmothers birthday, she done past away
And I'm past what da pastor say, you gotta drink my mothers tears
To swallow fears
To hear a bastard pray, caution was in the air, success was around da way
Envy was down da block, workin it round da clock, mama beg me to Stop, I'm dyin to make a pop
Success is ah greatest escape, Resilience is what it takes
Pressure is commonplace, ah dream is a pressure space
Struggles ah aid ya growth, pain ah keep you awake
Ya hustle kept ya alive, da scheme is helpin you thrive
They tell you, you doing wrong, you say I'm tryna to survive
Money never suffice, da feeling hidden inside
Gods waging ah war, we prayin to come alive
Da devil winking his eye, now we say our goodbyes

(Hook)

Yeah, its all about da money, da struggle, da dream
Yeah, its all about da hope, and ah hustling scheme

(Verse 2)
I shed tears when I think about my brotha, N all of my peers got lost In da struggle
Lost my motha, she fought with ah struggle
Lost my brotha, he shot got with ah puzzle, to piece together pain
To shed light on life's struggle
I think its insane to watch another man struggle
They thought it was rain, dats when they stepped in blood puddles
Who brought us this pain, make you forget dat God love you
Hardships, praying for Gods gifts, watching when tears drips
Suffering long plights, maybe what they call life
I tell you when pain lands, emotions ah take flight
Why do seek lows, instead of those high heights
Why don't we dream big, bigger than God's sight
Why can't we grind hard, harder than God's might
Why can't we live long, longer than God's life
Im prayin N God's like

(Hook)

Livin in hopes of one day you givin da game up
