Morray - Trenches lyrics
[Intro] We all experience pain And we have our own struggles It's all about how you come out of it What don’t kill you make you stronger And what don't break your pockets, make your money longer [Chorus] I got love for the ghetto, love for the hood Love for the people that turn the bad into good Love for the people that think that it could be worse Love for the people that’s putting their family first I got love for the ghetto, love for the hood Love for the people that turn the bad into good Love for the people that think that sh*t could be worse Love for the people that’s putting their family first [Verse 1] Breakfast in the morning, yeah it's finger lickin’ good Bunch of laughs outside the window, kids playing in the hood Get dressed, step outside, and know today is gonna be good But I’m still on the high alert ‘cause ni**as still from the hood Everybody see the ghetto as being a bad place Where people run a muck, ni**as stuck in a sad state They don’t see the good times that outweigh the bad days In the hood we still smile to lighten up them dark caves Have a cookout, make the kids dance, then we share a couple laughs Pop a bottle, share it with my homies, ni**a fu*k a glass Bouta roll up, tell em hold up, pass the blunt before I spazz ‘Cause its five ni**as smoking on a dime bag of gas [Pre-Chorus] You don’t need the type of things on TV Everything ain't always what it seems Everything is easier if you believe, if you believe [Chorus] I got love for the ghetto, love for the hood Love for the people that turn the bad into good Love for the people that think that it could be worse Love for the people that’s putting their family first I got love for the ghetto, love for the hood Love for the people that turn the bad into good Love for the people that think that sh*t could be worse Love for the people that’s putting their family first [Verse 2] Know plenty fathers at the bottom making sh*t work everyday Know plenty mothers heart would suffer ‘cause their son just joined a gang Know plenty brothers want to kill a ni**a that his sister dates Sister taking care of the kids ‘cause momma high and out her brain Yeah it's sad and it su*ks but we still find ways to make it Or replace it if we gotta fu*king do it then we’ll take it It’s the basics that we lack, that why seem so damn impatient People fear it, won’t go near it, but we forced to just embrace it In the hood you gotta find out what works And if you get it to work, you can still end up hurt And what hurts, can make you feel even worse And what's worse, is that’s not even the worst [Pre-Chorus] You don’t need the type of things on TV Everything ain't always what it seems Everything is easier if you believe, if you believe [Chorus] I got love for the ghetto, love for the hood Love for the people that turn the bad into good Love for the people that think that it could be worse Love for the people that’s putting their family first I got love for the ghetto, love for the hood Love for the people that turn the bad into good Love for the people that think that sh*t could be worse Love for the people that’s putting their family first
