Yo
Ahhhh
God damn
Another day
Yo, anyway
Early one morning I woke up yawning
Lost in the daze, a maze of brainstorming
Deja vu, a scene from a wet dream
The birds, the trees, some beam, and then I heard a scream
And then a slap, boom bap
Oh yeah I know the flavor
I expect domestic violence from my neighbors
The same routine what I mean no damn good
Sacrifice a beat on his wife to prove his manhood
Anyway, another day I know it doesn’t matter
Turn on my lights, get hyped, and watch the roaches scattеr
Running, ducking, jumping so I don’t hit ‘em
A disgrace, a waste of timе tryna kill ‘em
Disgusted, busted, a shower for a nice cleaning
It’s out of order don’t know it’s working but the water’s freezing
I want to break, scream and yell but who I tell
Times are worse, I curse I’m in a living hell
But I continue to dream of things I can’t afford
But I’m striving I’m alive so I praise the lord
As I lay I pray for a better day
God bless the [cecil] want a taste so I keep the faith
But I’m sick I will admit at times I wanna quit
Just bargain with the thugs, sell drugs and shit
Many brought me with the story, yeah I hear it often
I’ll end up in jail or in a black coffin
As some fingers that he’s sinking in the evil nature
Many people
Yo let me [kick flavor] my position
But I’m living in a different prison
In condition with a father who never listens
To my thoughts, my ideas, it makes me sick
Acting strict, and always wanna flip the script
Always complaining, I’m straining just to make it, damnit
Life’s a jingle when you’re living with a single parent
I used to lean on the shoulder of my older brother
Then he left me, my father with a stepmother
And didn’t like it, I would fight it and cause drama
Can't face her taking the place of my real mama
She would hawk and talk, the little hypocrite
Kissin’ me, dissin’ me, behind my back and shit
We had conflicts, arguments yo I couldn’t hide
I got bothered when my father took her side
My pride crushed, my ego against people
Selfish mentality in reality, my heart is lethal
I got into myself for my health, for my sanity
But lord, I praise it’s just one of those days
Yo man it’s just one of those days, man
Yo that’s the way it was, not anymore
Yo man it’s just like, yo
You got to make it in this world, yo
Everything’s just hard, times is hard
Y’know, cause that’s the way it is
You got to just go all out
The struggle continues man, yo
You know, Brown Sugar
I know you, you know me
Everybody’s in the house
The big shack, Danny Dan [peace]
