A yo, I walk down the block with my stomach in knots
Spent time hustling, running from cops
Broke as a joke, no ends at all
Can't play ball and my Timb's is small
Can't buy trees with government cheese
I rather be where it's breezy, niggas bubbling ki's
My moms got two jobs one on her knees
And writin letters to the governor "Please call off the deeds"
My baby mother with another brother with cash
And drive by roll down the window and laugh
I solve all my problems with indo and hash
Bought my daughter a Nintendo now she calling him Dad
My landlord's a jerk, the water don't work
My little sister twelve and she bought her own skirt
Rather do Kirk than do her homework
Talk blunts and boys and she'll jump for joy
Shit's twisted, opportunity knocked but I missed it
Out in the park gettin lifted
So now I'm sittin here shit out of luck without a buck
And it don't make a difference
Faith:
(Everyday)
Everday(Said Im living in the ghetto everday, and it aint easy)
Everday
Everday
Everday
It's like I'm trapped in a maze walk around in a daze
I won't rest 'til I'm paid or I'm down in my grave
I wanna look tough, but my sneakers is scuffed
Everyday pants in the week is enough
I had a little money but it came and it went
Now it's either pay the rent or stay in a tent
And it don't make sense how the shit is intense
And all you got up in your pocket is lint, you get the hint?
I had a cigarette for breakfast, just for beginners
Pride for my lunch and sleep for dinner
I tried to go to church, priest called me a sinner
He called me everything except for a winner
I'm walking in the rain wishing things would change
It ain't a game, man I pawned all the rings and chains
Emotionally scarred form losing my job
Pass the nod nigga, times is hard
Everyday(everyday)
Everyday(Im tryna live my life up in the ghetto)
Everyday
Everyday(Everyday)
Everyday(Said Im strugglin)
Everyday(and im strivin)
Everyday(Ooh trust me)
Everyday(everyday)
I ain't gonna front, all I want is a blunt
A pair of blue and yellow dunks and my hundreds in chunks
But, people see me, put they purse to the front
I'm waking up early on the first of the month
Honeys don't respect when you call 'em collect
And it's 25 cent you can call 'em direct
I put my life on the line I ain't making a dime
Niggas call me "Never mind , man you're wastin' your time"
A yo, I'm livin' in the ghetto and I'm tryin' to survive
At the same time a nigga rolling by in a five
Cant find a drive for a 9 ta 5
It's like I only get by when I'm feeling the high
And I ain't got no smoke, the elevator broke
I'm at the end of my rope tryin to find a way to cope
I'm sipping on Gin thinking how I could win
I don't know where it begins but this is where it could end
Everyday(everyday)
Everyday(Im tryna live my life up in the ghetto)
Everyday
Everyday(and you know it aint easy!)
Everyday
Everyday(Ooh Im hustlin)
Everyday(and Im strugglin)
Everyday
Ooo-oooh-ooh Everyday
Im livin in the ghetto and im tryin to survive
Everyday
And my life aint never easy
So im hustlin for my paper everyday
Everyday(Do you know)
Everyday(How it feels)
Everyday(To live in the ghetto)
Everyday
Everyday(Out here strugglin)
Everyday(Out here strugglin)
Everyday(OOh ooh ooh)
Oo-ooh Everyday
(faith ad-libs)

'Cause if you don't I'll come up close and say it clearly
