ain't all peaches and cream
than it seem I ain't tryna be depressing,
But sometimes it just feels like
there's something missing
I got all the answers, but ain't no questions
God's just trying to teach me a lesson
The situation's progressing,
I hope I don't fail my testing
they say that pressure bust pipes
So I keep my cool and thank
God for every breath of my life
I'm taking steps to the right,
but I'm stuck in this backyard pond
I'm trying to maintain my pace
but I keep getting bronze
Who do I call to for advice when all
this ain't just the words to my song
Keep it real and keep it true
Get that dirt up off of you
Still swangin' ain't school
Switch your house like what it do
Don't let them see the sweat on you
lockdown a 45 year sentence I don't like how that sound
we've been homies since middle school
we were childhood chums but you got caught up a
life in the slums I'm thinking about where your
life went 45 years of your life spent with
an aggravated robbery indictment you pled guilty
for a lesser charge even though the
God's still in charge I'd
I could go back in time and tell the judge that that
nine and this track was mine that would be
fine but I guess it's too late for that I know that
court appointed lawyer was whack ain't it
Ferguson unit up in the pen and the only way
that we communicate is through a pen
Don't give up just do what
Don't let your life live you
Keep it real and keep it true
Get that dirt up off of you
Still swinging bang screw
Switch your house like what it do
Don't let them see the sweat on you
People think my life is all
If I'm supposed to have it good,
but sometimes I need to lean on the crutch
Nobody told me life would get this tough
You gotta feel me though,
cause I ain't trying to be sad
and all the blessings I had
I work hard, I still grind all night in the lab
The best friends I ever had
Cause people talking down, hating on me
Yeah, we used to be down,
I see them all up on the internet
Wonderin' when will I flop,
I know they waitin' on me
A lot of rappers is jealous,
sayin' all that we rap about is swangles
Mad cause they see these below the
Should I retaliate the hatin',
but I'm standin' out in the cold
Keep it real and keep it true
Get that dirt up off of you
Still swinging, they ain't school
Switch your house like money do
Don't let them see the sweat on you
