Gemaine - Control Lyrics

Ima just control what I can control
Life f*ck you up that's the way it go
Ain't no reason I should be stressing
Cause life is a blessing and it could be gone tomorrow

Used to ask God why I was born this way
Inner City Blues talking Marvin Gaye
Every year my momma had to find a place to stay
She barely made enough to profit

A rhythm I just had to get with
Dinner peanut butter sandwich
Hurt to see my family always worried about a meal
My momma always working while my daddy up in jail

The life that I was given I would never choose
My 7 brothers and my sisters sleeping in a car
Momma stayed up when it got dark
Wearing down her mind it was so hard
Battling depression

She controlled what she could control
Thru the journey always had the faith never lost the soul Thought that we was cursed but now I see
That God chose
Chose me to speak to you

Bless up
Niggas keep yo' chest up
Shit sucks I know that life is f*cked up
Icon you could be the one that's next up
Everybody has a story

Easy
They think I had it when they see me
By 21 where I'm from you should be 6 deep
Influenced by the shit they seeing in the streets
Everybody has a story

Ima just control what I can control
Life f*ck you up that's the way it go
Changing every time I get comfortable
Staying on my feet, keep me on my toes

Ima just control what I can control
Life getting tough but I'll never fold
Changing every time I get comfortable
Staying on my feet, keep me on my toes

Ima just control what I can control
Life f*ck you up that's the way it go
Ain't no reason I should be stressing
Cause life is a blessing and it could be gone tomorrow"
