[Intro]
It took a long time to get this condition
We ain’t gon’ flip it overnight

[Verse 1]
I guess the cops gon’ keep busting, wonder why we don’t trust ‘em
The savage law makers and wolves having discussions
A gun in our pocket, they lock us up once we shot it
Convicting us for dope but they’ll never say how we got it
My gangsters aggravated so bodies lay on the pavement
You hate it but you won’t admit this is what you created
And as long as we stay in the hood you ignore the damage
But soon as we come in the suburbs, it’s time to panic
My Gs out here starving, they grind, push and they scuffle
If you can’t fix his problems, how can you tell him don’t hustle?
You say these thugs ain’t got no fathers if they don’t listen
That’s mostly ‘cause your system put many of ‘em in prison
You seen him and his children and wiped him out of the photo
And broke the family up so the mama raising him solo
And it’s crazy how the cycle continues for generations
What’s even worse it won’t ever change ’til we awakened
Come on

[Chorus]
But we gon’ keep pushing ’til we get it right
We gon’ keep working ’til we get it right
We gon’ keep trying ’til we get it right
We gon’ keep teaching ’til they see the light
[Verse 2]
In life you got to get your reps in until your weight shift
Yo Laura Ingraham, won’t you shut up and go get a facelift?
You talk about Durant and LeBron like you so good
But the question is how much money did you give to the hood?
What you donate to inner city youth? Where is your package?
I know the answer already, I’m just being sarcastic
I guess that you accomplished the mission with one mention
‘cause dissing someone greater than you gave you attention
I’m wishing I could show all my homies out here surviving
It ain’t about the shoes that you wearing or what you’re driving
It ain’t about your Instagram followers and flashing
It ain’t about the check, it’s what you do after you cash it
With what we ‘bout to be facing, there’s no time to be wasting
It’s bad math if you spending more cash than you making
Tricking off what you could have been flipping’s a stupid look
Don’t be jealous when you see people eating, learn how to cook

[Chorus]
But we gon’ keep pushing ’til we get it right
We gon’ keep working ’til we get it right
We gon’ keep trying ’til we get it right
We gon’ keep teaching ’til they see the light

[Verse 3]
To my youngsters in the streets, y’all tripping and acting crazy
Y’all shooting at each other, not caring about these babies
Your gun gave you courage so now you around here flexing
Innocent bystanders getting caught up in yo plexin’
Terrorizing your section with no sense of direction
You reckless, you supposed to provide the hood with protection
The need to have money is in you like an infection
So now you in prison learning a fifty year lesson
And for what? Got heated and ran straight to the trunk
All because you wanted to prove you wasn’t no punk
Took somebody’s child from the world, life gone quick
Nothing wrong with fighting but you fighting for the wrong shit
I hope one day you will realize
The stuff I see us doing brings tears to my eyes
Almost every night it’s some youngster they light up with the strap
They laid the plan out, you falling right up in the trap
Now..
[Chorus]
But we gon’ keep pushing ’til we get it right
We gon’ keep working ’til we get it right
We gon’ keep trying ’til we get it right
We gon’ keep teaching ’til they see the light
