Klondike Kat - The More I Try lyrics

[Intro: K-Rino] Yeah this for everybody who feel like Every time they take a step forward they get knocked two back You know what I'm saying? You ain't by yourself It ain't no need to feel sorry for yourself Just step your game up ya feel me? [Verse 1: K-Rino] My blessings in the world come from only three letters I an*lyze life through a blind man's eyes to see better I'm thanking for hard times and every problem I gained 'Cause struggle is ordained and one of life's best lessons is pain The decisions I made, I made 'em with no shame in my game Took the bad with the good just like a man that never place blame A mind stay twisted, can't even tell the crooked from straight We give up on love but never seem to run out of hate Seems like you gotta almost die before you learn how to live One of the biggest things a man can do is learn to forgive We didn't have much but grateful every night I pray Knew we was poor, but we was happy just to go out and play And these fools thinking they understand the problems we have Raised in the hood learning to mean mug before I could laugh If it's about money and happiness I'm down to pursue it And don't be talking about you feel me if you ain't never been through it [Chorus x2: Klondike Kat] Life's so full of deception and lies Look deeply and see the pain in my eyes Why do I fall when I'm supposed to rise? The more I try [Verse 2: Klondike Kat] I see this world is on its last leg like nobody cares Can't even pray to God, the Feds tapping my prayers How can I strive to show love when I'm surrounded by hate? Why even bother choosing friends when they so shallow and fake How come your main mission in life is to take me fast? Because if they ain't after your broad then they after your cash Busta's befriend me but they plot for my wealth Could it be that they see more in me then they see in they self? I been rich been poor been both places before Hit the pen now I know just what patience is for Got me pacing the floor now my life is so rough And if I look back on past I could have avoided this stuff How can you preach to me my baby need shoes, my baby is in schools And I can find no positives playing by y'all rules Klondike Kat done seen some dark days so I just can't front Man, your pace will get you twenty-five to avoid six months [Chorus x2: Klondike Kat] Life's so full of deception and lies Look deeply and see the pain in my eyes Why do I fall when I'm supposed to rise, the more I try? [Verse 3: K-Rino] Born in an aggravated mood swallowing game like food They say I'm ghetto but I take that as a compliment dude It ain't take long for the hood to put some hair on my balls Never did dirt because I feared my mama more than the laws Maybe we'll stop tryna take from somebody and give more They got us out here thinking it ain't nothing to live for You got your thing I got mine and when it rains it pours I can't look down on you cause my sin ain't no better than yours And the friendship between two partners really ain't strong And we can't tell each other 'bout ourself when we in the wrong Is you a G or a faker that will sellout your brothers? Do you do good because it's right or to be noticed by others? See I understand why people shoot slugs and do d** If you was in the conditions we was you'd do it too, cuz That why we dying over nonsense laid out like a pallet If you gon' die or k** just make sure that the reason is valid We know what pain is and what these devils tryna do It's hard to listen to your mama when she higher than you Can't show no weakness in this world, even the females is hard Out here putting your faith in man like you ought to do God For sure [Chorus]
