Vrs 1 Time and time again tryna make a way Grind 2/4/7 that's the day to day Birthday pa**ed still ain't seeing cake How much more can a young black brother take dang! Doing what I must for the paper, bills stay sky high Trees keep me tie dye.. Hippie! See colors thru supposed 3rd eye Keep me in the light cuz I've fallen to the darkside Beauty in the struggle huh? Looking for a plan, wheres the Team huddle huh? Get the hell from round me Keep me heaven bound seek More than whats given Get me out of the system State pen, so permanent Speech outta reach impediment Strain is evident Faith ain't present when The struggle fore betterment ain't ever been A reality to some it be a fallacy Chorus: What will we do now we've Lost it to trying, we've lost it to trying (x2) Vrs 2 Days getting longer never getting better Rather commit a crime spend it in a cellar Judas on my mind can't take no more The belt around my waste help me see it more Member holding a knife to my neck d**h I recollect on the harsh night spent All alone 4 corners in my room Problems gain dust can't sweep away like a broom Wish I could enemy wish I would Stuck in a place never really understood How I got here maybe cuz of all this fear Scared I'mma fail with a sink full of tears Tears won't take the pain away Steady on a search my whole life in decay Break down from thoughts of what I could be Wish I could see potential slave to defeat Chorus: What will we do now we've Lost it to trying, we've lost it to trying (x2) Vrs 3 I lost it to trying will it change Will I ever really see the stage Hear my lament my pride just damaged Prolly shouldn't be present but is, can't manage Thought by now my parents be outta debt But only do it increase my life feeling a mess This music ain't promised journey to a career Trynna keep my drive keep me in the right gear Seems the truth the people don't wanna hear Wonder if that's the reason can't find consistent ears A fan base in other words eager to curse All this frustration really got me feeling the worst Get me out this place dear father Author of it all enemy stay a martyr Got to see 25 in life Not trynna make a mistake and see 25 to life Lord hear me! Chorus: What will we do now we've Lost it to trying, we've lost it to trying (x4)
