Reality Check

[Chorus]
Hustlin' and grinding, strugglin' all my life
Search but never finding, trying to get it right
Hustlin' and grinding, strugglin' all my life
Search but never finding, trying to get it right

[Verse 1: Esham]
I'm just trying to get it right day and night
Life, livin' in frustration, every day is a fight
You gotta wake up and do something, don't sit around
Time don't wait for no man, you got to get around
You gotta keep it movin', you can't play around
You can turn it up but sometimes turn it down
You can keep it real, or you can be a clown
You can be lost or you can be found
How you wanna do it? Do it how you do it
Just do something, just get to it
I'm just tellin' y'all, 'cause this the game I got
Ask me where I get it, a Detroit block

[Chorus]
Hustlin' and grinding, strugglin' all my life
Search but never finding, trying to get it right
Hustlin' and grinding, strugglin' all my life
Search but never finding, trying to get it right

[Verse 2]
I guess I was just lost in the madness
Caught up in a world of pain
Sittin', reminiscing, will I see my girl again?
It was all a dream 'til reality came
Then I watched everybody personality change
In retrospect thinkin' how fast it went
T-N-T died in a car accident
Now I'm lost, but one day we all gotta pay that cost
See you at the crossroads, dog
Until then, we creepin' through the fog
It's all Reel Life so we doin it for y'all
As long as I'm here I'ma stand up for you tall
And never fall, when my homies call

[Chorus]
Hustlin' and grinding, strugglin' all my life
Search but never finding, trying to get it right
Hustlin' and grinding, strugglin' all my life
Search but never finding, trying to get it right

[Outro]
We can forgive but not forget
What happened to us and move ahead
Keep dwelling on it and we all'll be dead
I know it ain't all about just making bread
Suckin' and fuckin' like Scarface said
But who am I to talk
When I'm the first to throw the Molotov
And set the whole shit on fire
But if I told you I did all that shit I said in my raps
I'd be a motherfuckin' liar
I'm just entertaining
But now it seems to be raining
Cats and motherfuckin' dogs, man
And um, yeah, step out the rain
Step out the rain, you know
Ya'll need to step out the rain
'Cause there's too many people out there gettin' wet
