[Verse 1: Ant]
Now in days we don't understand how short life can be
And we don't appreciate the simple fact that we can breathe
n***as dying as I speak, a new day they won't see
And we sitting here complaining bout the littlest things
See, you gotta realize there's trials and tribulations
And you gotta go through straight sh** before you actually make it
And that applies to, anything you stride to
If you fall get back up, put that right behind you
Yea, sometimes I let my situation bring me down
And I start feeling like I'm never gonna make it out
And then I think about when momma said I make her proud
I get off my a** then put my feet back on the ground
Yea, you must remember that it's all just a test
And there's gonna be plenty on this road to success
And things gone get worst just don't let it get the best
Of you my dude, keep your head unlike the rest
[Hook 1: RiccDogg, Ant]
Hey you, hey you up there
What will you do with me, could ya
Tell me, cause I don't understand
[Verse 2: RiccDogg]
Now days we don't posses the opportunities we use to
All around sh** ain't cotton candy and fruitful
Decisions play a big role in everything that you do
And damn sure will determine directions if you choose
I pray to be rich and famous to jesus
Though this industry is a burning pit of fire down beneath us
What would I do if it was me but
I will never know the true concept till I'm on top, yeah
Elimination, its a gold G I
I was introduced when I was knee high
I just want the big stage sh** under the neon
And be the king of my generation b**h I'm a lion
When I conquer sh** I was chasing that took me on
Its gone be more than rap, imma move beyond
No this ain't no D-line
I just wanna be protected when I be gone
[Hook 1]
