Glass Houses Lyrics

I'm just hoping that it works

I've been going through a lot but I still hope that it works

Yeah, I'm just hoping that it works

My bros keep telling me to rap more

Momma keeps telling me I should nap more

Three in the morning I got a verse down

This life that I'm living ain't what I planned for

I wish it was something I'd understand more

I wish I could hustle and get a bag more

I wish that my father would be a dad more,

But there ain't no way to tell it

I got a lot on my chest it's getting harder to breathe now

The vision is getting harder to see now

I've got some people I gotta keep 'round

And a couple of people I gotta keep proud

I pray that my brother can put the weed down

And get back to chasing the dream now

He ain't got my number on speed dial

But if he wants to talk we can speak now

It's fears that I'm living with deep down

Heights I'm hoping I get to reach now

Lows I'm hoping I never see again

I reminisce on a person I'll never be again

I'm crying for people I'll never see again

It's pain I really struggle to fight alone

I'm hopping in a whip and I just ride alone

I've been going through a lot but I still hope that it works

Look, I cry for it

I live for it cause I'd die for it

I put some people to the side for it

I had to cut ties for it

Look, I came to take mine, take yours, take a step forward and take more

I do more than just try for it

What you know about it

Fuck what you heard and what you wrote about me

Glass houses when I started making jokes about them

But they didn't see a problem when they spoke about me

Fake smiling but you're just steady making notes about me

Same niggas that could never bring it home without me

The best my city's seen and that's the way it goes about me

You're the best your city's seen cause they don't know about me

I'm ready for war, checking the board

All I do is settle the score

Rest assured my efforts will be met with reward

I'm keeping mine and I'm headed for yours

Many blessings raining over me, you know that I'm just letting them pour

I give it all until it's left on the floor, I need something to change

So I gotta take the sun and the rain, the love and the pain

I'm carrying a bucket of things, I keep walking

Pressure on my shoulders as my day gets older, I keep walking

My days get silent as my nights get colder I keep walking

Because my vision is clear

All my struggle will be ending from here

Murky water but I'm ready to steer

Shedding so many tears

Wipe your eyes and just get ready to cheer

Keep your eyes on the road

Getting guidance from the light in my soul

And from the dirt out rises a rose, I watch it finally grow

Many feelings that I hide in my flows

I'm trying to tell you about the highs and the lows

These are the highs and the lows

So many times I've had to lie to my bros

We laugh together but I'm crying alone, I've been crying alone

I hope you know these are the highs and the lows

Fuck

And that's only cause I cry for it

I live for it cause I'd die for it

I put some people to the side for it

I had to cut ties for it

Look, I came to take mine, take yours, take a step forward and take more

I do more than just try for it

I always keep my head high for it
