They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know they don't know they don't know
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
What it's like what it's like what it's like what it's like
Don't know what it is but somethings wrong
Can't find the place where I belong
Been living like this for way too long
Trying to hold on and stay so strong
Too many egos and plenty of hate
I got so much stress up on my plate
I swallow my pride but I can't stand the taste
If opportunity knocks please God give me grace
My futures dim and looking bleak
Muscles tires and I'm feeling weak
No one cares when I try to speak
But half these rappers ain't got heart like me
I grab my pen and make it bleed
Put bits on myself in every beat
Hold up now let me stop and think
Writer's block or have I hit my peak
Can't find the words to how I feel
F*ck it all and pop ah pill
Need to calm my nerves breathe and chill
Not a way out so I have to deal
Baby's hungry no Enfamil
Doing what I got to cause the struggles real
Hit the corners and conceal the steel
Stick em' up for my daughter's meal
How many times has that crossed my mind
When I'm broke and in a bind
They need me so I can't be doing time
Avoid temptation ain't doing crimes
So I work and I hit the grind
Busting my ass to provide for mine
Living in ah world that's so unkind
Looking for an answer God I need ah sign
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know they don't know they don't know
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
What it's like what it's like what it's like what it's like
These knives in my back are hell of sharp
Feeling alone lost in the dark
From the start I came with heart
Just ah simple man creating art
While I'm sipping on a Southern pint
Blowing on this Northern Light
Pistol in my grip
Hoping I see another night
Cause I ain't really feeling right
All my demons putting up ah fight
I can't be giving in
So I'm resisting with all my might
I'm always tired and feeling sick
I'm filled with anger and always pissed
Beating these walls with bloody fists
How did it ever come to this
Hit the lab and close my eyes
Feel the beat and I make it cry
Pour my soul and tell my life
Damn my homie why'd you have to die
No one cares or understands
So I stay to myself and keep it in
Throwing my hands like f*ck it all
Calling timber I'm about to fall
Couple pills to solve it all
Sips of Crown to wash it all
Damn it seems like it's all on me
Filled with rage and anxiety
Another shot it all I need
Drink it down and my ulcers bleed
Weight of the world it's crushing me
Just leave me alone and let me be
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know they don't know they don't know
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
They don't know they don't know what it's like what it's like
What it's like what it's like what it's like what it's like
Yeah yeah it's Lansky if you didn't grow up around here
And were living like this you don't know what it's like being me
So for those that live in the struggle just know you ain't alone
I've been there and done that and once I find my way I ain't ever going back
So keep on grinding homies and one day we'll find a way out
Yeah SouthBound baby one love ya'll
