Bone Thugs Akon.. yeah
|
You know though nothin` 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
|
try to get away but trouble follows me
|
And still I try so hard
|
hopin one day they'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 stayin on track man
|
My mind be racin` and I don't even know what I'm chasin yet
|
Been in and out of relationships
|
I'm startin to see that it's me where the complications at
|
But I'm layin back, prayin' that
|
you get that piece of mind of me
|
I thought I was right, but really I'm wrong
|
but again I was too blind to see
|
I was in the fast lane chasin my dream
|
And then it seemed when the fame and cash came
|
they just got me
|
Goin crazyyyy, (lately, lately)
|
lately I been so faded trying to 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
|
try to get away but trouble follows me
|
And still I try so hard
|
hopin one day they'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
|
Tryna 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 (family)
|
Hustlin and gamblin, drinkin' and scramblin`
|
And losin sight of what I supposed to be handlin`
|
It's hard to manage cause every days a challenge and man
|
And I'm slippin can't lose my balance and 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
|
try to get away but trouble follows 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 (wont change)
|
I'm stuck in the game
|
As soon as I get out it keeps pullin me back man (pullin me)
|
Got me doin' dirty dirt, so used to this hustlin money
|
That I don't understand no nine to five work
|
Studied on the streets, hustlas know what I mean
|
Thugstas ballin' before us I'm tryna make that major league
|
So we never leave never till the sun came up (came up)
|
Gotta get it nope, no leavin, no grudge (no grudge)
|
today games they play gotta go hard to get what you put in
|
if you fall off then its all on you (on you)
|
gotta watch what you sign too
|
try so hard but I won't act a 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
|
