[distorted intro (2x):] Every man's bound to fall [hook:] Pain inside my heart Trouble stay on my mind Everything falls apart (It's) happenin' all the time Livin by Murphy's Law Tryin to have it all Running from instant karma Every man's bound to fall Life is short, the grind is long Some of my very best friends are gone My hustle's strong my money's all spent On buying b**hes titties and d** and rent Work a double shift grind, I can't save a dime My daughter needs medicine I just can't afford Bout to grab a .9, lose my mind My insurance keeps sayin that they won't pay for it I'll stage the heist, I'll pay the price Don't be shocked when I turn to crime, kid I'm goin big, I might split your wig Cause I ain't getting knocked for no nickel'n'dime sh** All that glitters ain't all it seems The American dream is an American scheme What you're looking at, what you're trippin on Who you flippin on, see what I'm grippin on [hook] I've been breakin my neck just to live correct Keep my head above water, living check to check I get no respect, I got no regard Patience is a struggle when times is hard Paper's in the shortage, tryin to pay the mortgage I can't get to work, they repossess my car Bout to buy a pistol and kidnap Bristol Tell me b**h, can you see me from your backyard? This New World session of the Great Depression I'm living off preemptive unchecked aggression You're cryin and you're b**hin, know it every politician: My family tradition is heavy ammunition I co*k the hammer, I'ma rock the vote Got your forhead on lock, dead in my scope Look me in the eye, what you're lying for What you're living by, what you dyin for [hook]
