Everyday somethin' in my way I try

Sh*t ain't goin' right I try to see the light I try

It's like my eyes got a cover on 'em

And somethin' holdin' me back

A better man better level better know I try

Yeah yo listen I done played with the snakes in the grass

Paid for my mistakes I made in the past

Everybody ate when I came wit the cash

At least I tried to ride the wave till it crashed

Same wood on the gun handle is on the dash

All the hoods that son ran through is on smash

They can't identify you wit a mask

And the Bible will tell you nothin' is gonna last

The name of da game's survival

If you make it alive when you ride through they make it arrival

My boo is gon' ride you know I am gon' ride too

Make an M everyday I am gon' try to let's go

Everyday somethin' in my way I try

Sh*t ain't goin' right I try to see the light I try

It's like my eyes got a cover on 'em

And somethin' holdin' me back

A better man better level better know I try

Yeah yo I tried to tell niggas I'm willin' to blast for it

I only try to give it to niggas that ask for it

Got them things on the scale I'm still weighin' 'em

Thought my dues was paid I'm still payin' 'em

Couple Elanor's and the Goose I am still payin' 'em

Semi's and the fulli's know that the truth stay wit 'em

Wolves and gorillas is loose so don't play with 'em

Somethin's holdin' 'em back nothin' that you could say to 'em

Popped champagne wit Biggie at the Palladium

Put that good hawk work in with the titaniums

Sh*t switch around when them heats get fired

And ya peeps just died but I least he tried let's go

Everyday somethin' in my way I try

Sh*t ain't goin' right I try to see the light I try

It's like my eyes got a cover on 'em

And somethin' holdin' me back

A better man better level better know I try

Yeah watch the game get tooken over

I am still on the same side of the fence I am just lookin' over

A solider from the gravel to the grass

To the obstacles in life I traveled in the past

Whether I'm holdin' a mic or holdin' a Mac

It's like an invisible force is holdin' me back

But I ain't lettin' go of my pride

After I get the dough I slide better know I tried let's go

Everyday somethin' in my way I try

Sh*t ain't goin' right I try to see the light I try

It's like my eyes got a cover on 'em

And somethin' holdin' me back

A better man better level better know I try

Here come another day up on me

Put the pressure on me here we go again ah

I try to do what's right when life is so wrong

I want a better way I see a better day

'Nuff wit the people said I want a better me

God knows that I try but time won't wait for me

Everyday somethin' in my way I try

Sh*t ain't goin' right I try to see the light I try

It's like my eyes got a cover on 'em

And somethin' holdin' me back

A better man better level better know I try
