Chulo Ramon - Lose-Lose Lyrics

Got a call shots fired in the hood
Morgan Street always up to no good, welcome to my city
Granny in the bed, know she praying in her head
Cause they streets we running in got a time limit, Lord
I just wanna get my life right
But this Henny be the only one that understand
How could you judge if you never gave a helping hand
Me against the world, I'm undermanned, but I'm still the man
Yeah, it's God's plan that I'm working with
Struggle got me ad-libbing jumping of the script
All I wanted was my mama not to stress
So I did a lil dirt, no regrets
They say pray about it and I do, faith The Lord will come thru
But the devil pulling hard man I'm coming out my shoes
In a messy marriage with the bottle, I got problems
And I best I can do is talk to you
I just wanna make it all disappear
Money only gonna make it tougher at least that's what I hear
But how you can convince me money don't end the terror
I ain't never had shit, what's better
Lose-lose

I'm not myself
And I don't know why
I just pray for help
Can't win if I try
I'm in a lose-lose, yeah
I'm in a lose-lose situation
I'm in a lose-lose, yeah
I'm in a lose-lose situation

You would never get it
Mom's sick, bills piling up
Pop's calling everyday and I ain't picking up
Shawty want more of my time
But my schedule full of dollar signs and I can't miss a digit
My friends ain't dependent but I stay in place
They say the ones closest hurt you more anyway
But I've changed, drank any my pains
IPhone vibrates, ignore, my heart can't take the pain
Of more bad news, it's CNN live
Ain't nothing good reported, and if it is, it's a lie
I deal with it and smile, like rain in clear skies
They'll never see the struggle I disguise
They said if we all stick together it'll be better
But it's only so much food that can fit on one plate
So everybody don't eat, it's never a fair shake
And niggas only care about they selves anyway
Lose-lose

I'm not myself
And I don't know why
I just pray for help
Can't win if I try
I'm in a lose-lose, yeah
I'm in a lose-lose situation
I'm in a lose-lose, yeah
I'm in a lose-lose situation

I'm not myself
And I don't know why
I just pray for help

Refuse to be a victim of my situations
They don't teach you patience in these streets
They teach you go and take it
Tell me what I'm s'pose to give a world
That wanna strip me naked of my soul
Lord I wanna know, Lord I wanna know
Why you took Tryf to them heavens early
Why T-Evans couldn't live to watch his daughter grow
I know she hurting
Why the good die so young, we miss you Tommy Lee Nel
Why the feds won't free my brother Spody out of them cells
Lord I'm not myself, I'm seeing strangers when my image is reflected
They say within a struggle all you tryna do is test me
And I feel like I'm flunking, Christmas treeing through my life
These multiple choices and rapping the only thing I'm doing right
It's so much pain when i write, like arthritis
Still can't see nobody close to me, like I'm farsighted
I give my all with every opportunity provided
And still feel like I'm nosediving, Lord please guide me

Say a prayer for me, say a prayer for me
Say a prayer for me, say a prayer for me, Lord
Say a prayer for me, say a prayer for me, yeah
Say a prayer for me
