ion even wan talk dat talk dat ain't mean nun

cuz out here errthing dat glitter dey ain't brung nun

dat want for dem niggas who jus exist

see dis life dey deliver you one way you gon wanna resist

wen you see dat pressure cookin you jus gotta stand tall

watchin opportunities skid right past da wall

look.. ion gotta shine to know I'm illuminated

man real struggle I be consumin it wit da plan

lemme speak on dis weight I be sharin da load

gotta pay da levy jus to walk dis dirty road

ain't no fairy tales jus da daily grind

chu feel dem consequences go circulate dat spiral

real we move like da water always findin a way out

errbody ain't solid jus know what dat life about

we jus tryna escape dat cycle dey wan trap us in

man I'm jus playin to win before da game can end

streets don sleep I wonder err night

hands still deep I grab err bite

I jus wan rise dat little bit allet

I see dem eyes I ain't gon forget dat

streets don sleep I wonder err night

hands still deep I grab err bite

I jus wan rise dat little bit allet

I see dem eyes I ain't gon forget dat

aye.. I ain't seen no luxuries errday I move cautious

I brung da raw material it ain't no sickness dis nauseous

dat dealin wit less chu know it weighs on da chest

dey see da shine but don't know I ain't get no rest

lemme tell you da feelin wen dat hustle got you strapped

dat energy I be packin it can't even be mapped

jus gotta keep it steady movin no other way but foward

dem lies dat dey be feedin us we ain't got time to fall

errbody wan claim da moment wen it ain't shit to see

I gotta grasp da present moment for I end up like dey

ain't no fantasy life jus reality all day

dey see da progress but don peep what I had to pay

I'm jus hopin dat tomorrow ain't jus da same ol plot

breakin out da mold wit da tools dat I got

dis game got a rhythm I be switchin da flow

allet dat raw conviction in da tone cuz dat shit I know allet

up outta da mire allet

lightin da fire allet

I jus wan rise allet

close dem eyes allet

dis street ain't neva sleepin cuz we woke err night

I still be grabbin dat bag jus to make it right

gon get it jus a little bit cuz we needed dat

ion forget dem faces wen we feedin dat

dis street ain't neva sleepin cuz we woke err night

I still be grabbin dat bag jus to make it right

gon get it jus a little bit cuz we needed dat

ion forget dem faces wen we feedin dat
