Verse 1

I'm up late and I can't sleep
The dream I had
Felt like I was in
The nightmare on elm street
I'm sweatin
Palms itchin
Can't enter me without any type
Of medicine
I just wanna
Snooze off and forget about my day
School stressin me over grades
And I gotta walk to work
Even in the rain
What else could I say?
Its life I deal with it everyday
Imagine how life is gonna be
After I graduate
Bills after bills
I could careless how you feel
Cause I gotta make shit happen
Hopefully in 10 years
I'll be dropping classics
After that I go back
To my regular self
I need help
But nobody gonna do it
My main influence
Has been music
Y'all n***as just talk
I'm like Nike I just do it
(Hook: Taew$)

Just another day
With ya boy cream
From rags to riches yea
Ya boy is living his dream
Just another day
With ya boy cream
From rags to riches yea
Ya boy is living his dream

Verse 2

Times are ruff now
I understand that
But you can't just
Up and leave and abandoned them
Problems follow you
No matter where you go
It sucks when you don't
Even have ya own cash flow
I remember when my pops didn't have a whip
So we use the metro
Live about 30 minutes away
Walking in the blizzard cold
I spit stories
Even though y'all don't know
Too much about me
You see
Ya own friends eventually become
Ya own enemies
Doing so good
All they do is just hate
Ya people eating good
And everything is great
But there's people
Who you thought
Was ya dawg
Become a snake
(Hook)

Verse 3

Every time I hear a siren
It ain't nothing new
Its probably Someone house on fire
Or somebody dying
Most people tell the truth
But will still be consider lying
This generation fuck up
Can't even get by without trying
Walking down my block
Uneven crack roads
It ain't nothing new
Hearing people
Screaming with a hoarse throat
Bayous dirty sewer water
Sometimes I wish this world
Was a bit calmer
But you see
This the shit that revolves around us
People that we don't even know
Label us thugs
So quickly to judge
But people
Will always commit sins
And this the cycle
That never seems to end
Most n***as pretend to be
Your day ones
But when you struggling
Who's there to depend on?
Nobody
And if they don't stick around
Fuck em!
I'm older now
I gotta learn some ways
That eventually reflect on me today
And once I'm older
I got mouths to feed
Eventually
I'll be proud of myself
Till then
Let a n***a be
I'm only 17 with big dreams
That I will eventually achieve
But for now
I gotta eat
(Hook)
