[ Featuring Cordae ]
It ain't the same in this world
But I'm still here (still here)
Gotta be strong as I can
Hiding all these fears (fears)
Been stuck in these chains for so many years
But I gotta play the game
'Cause I'm holding all of these tears
Uh, hot summers with cold winters
Empty stomachs with no dinners
Fast losers and slow winners
Real niggas, no ho in us (nah)
Never pro-tenders, all authentic, my nigga, uh
I know the struggle and very well
They say life ain't no fairytale
And real music barely sells
My lil' homie just made bail (bail)
I heard that Earth is a strange Hell
As of recent I can't tell (nah)
Vision clouded, wires routed, nothing new about it
Gettin' high thinking about that cash, what we'd do without it
Niggas with the least to offer usually who the loudest
Meditation smoke that medication through the mountains
Oh Lord, oh Lord I heard you
Found myself and I'm searchin'
We been sinnin' but won't do it on purpose
Give it my all, going harder but my heart is still hurting
What did we do to deserve it? Yeah
It ain't the same in this world
But I'm still here (still here)
Gotta be strong as I can
Hiding all these fears (fears)
Been stuck in these chains for so many years
But I gotta play the game
'Cause I'm holding all of these tears
Just reminiscing 'bout the days a nigga needed whippings
They way I'm acting nowadays a nigga really miss 'em
No real location moving around is how a nigga living
A rolling stone, I lay my hat down, well, you get the picture
With words I'm tryna depicted it, some people will never get it
Some people pretend to get it just so act like they can fit in
Playing the hell out these women, most women cheat on their man
Just to find nobody's better and expect for him to understand
I mean it's cool to be broke, I mean it's cool to be robbed
Yeah, I sound dumb as a bitch, that's what I'm hearing from y'all
I can't be happy an gangstas 'cause these niggas will test ya
Bring the problems to me, on Jesus, I promise you I'll bless you, yeah
It ain't the same in this world
But I'm still here (still here)
Gotta be strong as I can
Hiding all these fears (fears)
Been stuck in these chains for so many years
But I gotta play the game
'Cause I'm holding all of these tears
