앨범 : Big Caz Presents Family Scriptures, Vol.2
Bone Thugs Akon yeah
You know though
nothing come easy
You gotta try real real hard
I tried hard but
I guess I gotta try harder
I tried so hard can't seem
to get away from misery
Man I tried so hard but
always be a victim of these streets
It ain't my fault cause I tried to
get away but trouble follows me
And still I try so hard hoping
one day you'll come and rescue me
But until then I'll be posted up
right here rain sleet hail snow
But until then I'll be posted up
right here with my heat gettin dough
First let me explain
that I'm just a black man
And I come from the darkside
So I'm havin a hard time
staying on track man
My mind be racing and
I don't even know what I'm chasin yet
Been in and out of relationships
I'm starting to see that it's me
where the complication's at
But I'm laying back praying
that you get that piece of mind of me
I thought I was right
but really I'm wrong
Then again I was
too blind to see
I was in the fast
lane chasing my dream
And then it seemed when the fame
and cash came they just got me
Going crazy lately
I been so faded tryna erase it
But I just can't cause
the drama just grows greater
And I been in so many collisions
by puttin shit off till later
I tried so hard can't
seem to get away from misery
Man I tried so hard but
always be a victim of these streets
It ain't my fault cause
I tried to get away
but trouble follows me
And still I try so hard hopin
one day you'll come and rescue me
But until then I'll be posted up
right here rain sleet hail snow
But until then I'll be posted up
right here with my heat gettin dough
It's like I'm takin five steps
forward and ten steps back
Tryin get ahead of the game
but I can't seem to get it on track
And I keep runnin away
the ones that say
they love me the most
How could I create the distance
when it's supposed to be close
And uh I just don't know
but I be out here fightin demons
And it's like the curse that
I can't shake this part of Cleveland
And Lord would you help me
And stop this pain
I keep inflinctin on my family
Hustlin and gamblin
drinking and scrambling
And losin sight of
what I supposed to be handling
It's hard to manage
cause every days a challenge
And man I'm slippin can't lose
my balance Im tryin not to panic
I tried so hard can't seem
to get away from misery
Man I tried so hard but
always be a victim of these streets
It ain't my fault cause I tried
to get away but trouble follows me
And still I try so hard hopin one day
you'll come and rescue me
But until then I'll be posted up
right here rain sleet hail snow
But until then I'll be posted up
right here with my heat gettin dough
I see thangs won't change
I'm stuck in the game
As soon as I get out it keeps
pullin me back man
Got me doing dirty dirt so
used to this hustling money
That I don't understand
no nine to five work
Studied on the streets
hustlers know what I mean
Thugsters balling before us
I'm tryna make that major league
So we never leave never
til the sun came up
Gotta get it no no
leavin no grudge
Today games they play
Gotta go hard to get
what you put in
If you fall off then its all on you
Gotta watch what you sign too
Try so hard but I won't play the fool
I tried so hard can't seem
to get away from misery
Man I tried so hard but
always be a victim of these streets
It ain't my fault cause I tried
to get away but trouble follows me
And still I try so hard hopin one day
you'll come and rescue me
But until then I'll be posted up
right here rain sleet hail snow
But until then I'll be posted up
right here with my heat gettin dough
