The Life

The Life

The life he leads is ran in the streets
The hustle in him wont let him give in
The responsibilities, the family, the loved ones, the friends all in need
Keep this man deep in the streets
The highway is calling
A country town here and there b****es everywhere
Ni*gg*s jealous cause they see him balling
Crazy baby mommas, police, and stick up kids
The streets can't be played with
Penitentiary chances to feed us all
The struggles he faces everyday...a lesser man would fall
Fall from the pressure from the wife and girlfriend and don't forget the hos that got him tricking
His mother telling him to clean up his life him holding on to the life causing him to lose his wife
The kids don't understand why daddy's always out of town
He's making that money baby in small country town
He thinks his hustle is enough
Providing money and things is giving love is how he thinks
He doesn't know  behind every gift every stack every bill paid if his time  and attention was given that would have been enough
