Lyrics

Yeah Uh Problem child, growing up was a struggle I tell you first hand Momma's best advice is be humble 'Cause you never know when God decides to take it away You'll be left on the street hungry, lookin' for a place to stay I took some notes watching all of my peers Hoping one day I'll be able surf a wave and sail outta here But those is just dreams, funny cause it's hard to get rest I'm writing this at one am, insomniac from the stress Weighin' down onna nigga feel like I'm building my body Or like I'm climbing a building but gettin' caught in the lobby My emotions get thе best of me, they tеll me keep it together So I tied myself down but now all ties are severed Feel so alone inside a world where everyone want attention Nobody looking to God but everyone wanna blessin' Constant tension and provocation to start a war It's like we beggin' for that bomb at our door (These niggas trippin') It seems we all been gettin' caught in the struggle Stuck onna puzzle that's causing us trouble You just tryna hustle but Sometimes you gotta take the L And though it hurts like hell Let that wind take you away, boy just set sail I get lost in the wind often, I act on whims Set the stage for losses hoping I'll gain a win Puttin' pressure on myself to make amends But the more that I apply myself the more my mental walls start to thin I'm just a boy with a dream to make a change Using words from a pen and maybe make me some change So I jot my little notes and tell my stories of pain And stuff I witnessed hopin' maybe people can relate These long nights followed by these even longer days Stressing over blowing up or even gettin' plays I'm looking forward to the days where I'm gettin paid Living life such a shame, I'm stranded onna plane Anxiety through the roof, with my confidence strained I wanna change but I'm still the same (This nigga crazy) It seems we all been gettin' caught in the struggle Stuck onna puzzle that's causing us trouble You just tryna hustle but Sometimes you gotta take the L And though it hurts like hell Let that wind take you away, boy just set sail And every wave you crash into, only strengthens you You can either learn to swim or allow your surroundings to drown you What do you wanna do?
