[T.I.] Stayin´ alive sometimes hard work, today You got a problem, go to God first and pray That won´t He do it, it could always be worse Every day a good day, when He above the dirt
Another day, another bill that I have to pay The weed man said he was five minutes away And that was yesterday But it could always be worse Every day a good day when He above the dirt
[RaRa] I had young thot givin´ me top, sittin´ in a hotbox I was 14 years old workin´ the Duwop All eyes on me, nigga, thought I was 2Pac Fucked the wrong young nigga´ girl, I need two Glocks Tryna´ ride drop-top Ville, for the summertime Young nigga put in work, I had a hundred grand Lot of niggas pack up leave, streetlights on Where the fuck was I gon´ go? I had no home Asked my partner, "Can I come over? Sleep on the sofa?"
Had to get out grandma crib, I´m no pushover Treat a nigga like I´m a Orphan Fussin & arguin So I need everything that I own, don´t do no bargain Jumped up out the porch, and fell in love with drugs It was what it was, of course, I´m just a thug Had to skip them Boy´s and Girls find me a plug I want big ol´ diamonds, and minks, all the allures
[T.I.] Stayin´ alive sometimes hard work, today You got a problem, go to God first and pray That won´t He do it, it could always be worse Every day a good day, when you above the dirt Another day, another bill that I have to pay
The weed man said he was five minutes away And that was yesterday But it could always be worse Every day a good day when you above the dirt Remember that
[Trae tha Truth] Day for day, dealin´ with struggles, I´m nothing new to Prayin´ I could see somethin´ better, only a few do Dreams of pullin´ up something foreign, I´m in a Who Do Solo on the block sweatin´ bullets, it´s what I´m used to Pride hit me, all in my feelings, lookin´ at niggas win "How the fuck the Truth gon´ make it?"
I´m movin´ 3 for 10´s Lookin´ like I´m homeless and broke I´m damn-near out of wind Aggravated, caught me a robbery, headed to the pen Feeling like my life hit bottom, it can´t go no less Lost my re-up runnin´ from laws, like, "What the fuck next?" Trappin full-time with work, but ain´t got no checks What the fuck do I got to show? Other than more stress Older brother stuck in a cell, tellin´ me give ´em hell He ain´t have the money for bail, I´m back to work the scale Told me I should think about rappin´
I told him, "Time will tell" For now lil bro was reppin´ the block So they would find the smell
[T.I.] Stayin´ alive sometimes hard work, today You got a problem, go to God first and pray That won´t He do it, it could always be worse Every day a good day, when He above the dirt Another day, another bill that I have to pay The weed man said he was five minutes away And that was yesterday But it could always be worse Every day a good day when you He the dirt Remember that
