Too many of my peers been killed how I wish they'd reappear
Was just wit'em now I miss'em still I feel they spirits near
Reminiscing of the years we would post and just chill
Smoke and drink beers now relinquish all my fears
Is what ima need to do in order to carry on
I be afraid thats the truth but that don't mean I'm scary nah
I got plenty heart and ain't tryna make excuses
For my self cuz the truth is that would just be useless
I ain't chose this chemical imbalance
That I suffer with and have been ever since I was a toddler
We all got problems it just helps me to write mine
Down in the form of rhymes and share'em on the mic
Might seem a bit strange but it helps you should try it
If it wasn't for a pen & page I probably woulda died
When ever I felt pain that I felt I couldn't grasp a hole of
Now my pain translates into me asking you to
Give me a reason why I shouldn't just say f*ck it
Give me a reason why I shouldn't just start claiming something
Give me a reason why I shouldn't go sprayin' dumpin'
Give me a reason please give me a reason
Give me a reason why I shouldn't just say f*ck it
Give me a reason why I shouldn't just start claiming something
Give me a reason why I shouldn't go sprayin' dumpin'
Give me a reason I'm asking for a reason
Cuz I can't think of one while I'm sitting here contemplating
Hate this predicament I'm in and plus I'm tired of waiting
For this income to come I'm broke and growing frustrated
Must I commence to slangin' dope if I plan to make it
Bust home invasions and get into hittin' licks again
Resort to drastic measures more hyped than I've ever been
Swear I don't love this paper just what I can do with it
Its all about me making sure I provide for my kids
And that's it I don't give a f*ck 'bout nothing else
In this world but my girl our babies and our health
But sometimes I feel like whoa! I'm losing control
Be sick & tired of being sick & tired of being broke
Living poor ain't no joke I did it since a seed
But I don't want my boys to grow and not see me succeed
Set an example for'em and lay the foundation
I gotta make it all this bullshit be testing my patience
Be having me aggravated ready to risk it all
Me getting cremated or life behind the walls
It be an easy call when I get into my funks
Depression plus anxiety minus the drink and blunts
Equals me sick & nuts and not giving a f*ck
Being stuck between a rock and hard place like f*ck!
What the f*ck!? I'm lost and don't know what to do
Feel schizophrenic this me beggin' when I ask you to
Give me a reason why I shouldn't just say f*ck it
Give me a reason why I shouldn't just start claiming something
Give me a reason why I shouldn't go sprayin' dumpin'
Give me a reason please give me a reason
Give me a reason why I shouldn't just say f*ck it
Give me a reason why I shouldn't just start claiming something
Give me a reason why I shouldn't go sprayin' dumpin'
Give me a reason I'm asking for a reason
