[Verse: Young L3X]
Appreciate what you have is what they say
But I can’t appreciate the shit that comes my way
Why can’t I be jealous of someone that has more
But they tell me nah boy love yours
I don’t love the fact that I been though the struggle
Just get by, I had to pray, I had to hustle
My homie sold crack, kept the strap in the duffle
Gotta stay strapped, with the gat for the trouble
And I don’t see good times its all a mirage
And nobody’s perfect we all have flaws
If you act like you got it, you might get robbed
And when they clapping at you it’s not an applause
I want the happiness and joy that I see in others
So I suffer and I wonder, why the devil has to hoover
And why does bad happen to the good in my neighborhood
There ain’t no good in my neighborhood

[Chorus: Siera]
If the sun doesn’t shine
Does it take away the pain?
Would I ever win this game?
Is it me that is to blame?
And If the stars never shine
Do they ever fade away?
Would they ever call my name?
Would the earth still spin the same?

[Verse Two: Young L3X]
They won’t give me none
Feel like they owe me some
I should charge interest, I feel tremendous
So, stop depending on me to fail
All this weight on me, don’t wanna see a scale
I should keep the steal, I might need protection
And might confidence been lacking & I hate rejection
Yea I want the fame, but I hate attention
I ain't never been a square I don’t fit those dimensions
Its hard trynna keep the balance
Im trynna own a palace
Escape this hell hole, make it and get real doe
Yea I need it all in my bank
I want the funds in my account
I don’t want it if its blank
I been poverty stricken
My happiness missing
The way things going I feel like everyone hissing
Like everyone’s a snake to me
But I live my life dreaming
There’s no waking me

[Chorus: Siera]
If the sun doesn’t shine
Does it take away the pain?
Would I ever win this game?
Is it me that is to blame?
And If the stars never shine
Do they ever fade away?
Would they ever call my name?
Would the earth still spin the same?
