Hook:
So much is so wrong and so little is right/
But it's like the suns still shining even when it's night/
So i guess it's so right that I’m feeling it's like/
I gotta write a better life when I’m on that mic/

Verse 1:
They said the world is yours, but I feel I never had it/
Peep the dream of scene of queens turned to addicts/
This can't be real, but the thoughts remain tragic/
See I’m fighting to hack it while we shoot or get blasted/
White mans the baddest while were living in madness/
He smokes and blows ashes and lives so lavish/
please understand we don’t know we thinking/
See, life is changing kids are steadily drinking/
Say school is for a fool but I’m ready to move/
The Fundamentals of success is your mind as a tool/
So I think hard play to win son and never lose/
Two stepping to the freedom my peoples ready to grove/
And slaves...danced for joy when they was deep in the field/
Now we dance to a different tune... I’m reaching for skill/
And I think you got the words that speak and I feel/
I'm trying to give a different definition to keeping it real.

Hook:

Verse 2:
I'm even that life is math and I’m really battling odds/
And see I refuse to quit see I be speaking it hard/
And see I seen a lot in life that most would never believe/
Church women on the alter and they begging on knees/
Saying Lord please help my soldiers over the seas/
Told me life was war and war is never at ease/
And geeze man the shots and beatings we be seeing/
Got me jumping and leaping and y’all seeing the reason/
See I play it cool man I’m just living my life/
And living the sight talk game but I’m spitting it hype/
Hustle on the stacks fam catch me dipping and night/
Treat the topic like sex I be hitting it right/
See I'm rocking mean show I'm just living my dream bro/
So I smoke a cold cig I be blowing my steam slow/
Stressed on my mind trying to live this line/
I guess its all good it did help me write that rhyme like/
