Temptations Lyrics

All my life I've been fighting an uphill battle

Tryna be a cash cow without me becoming cattle

I know I took the long way, but I much enjoy the travels

And it's helped me see who really here to stay through all the hassle

Looking for something real the women my age just can't handle

I've been hurt, I hope my next one I don't break her like a panel

I've been too distracted like poppin shows gotta channel

My focus off of these women, I've tried but I feel dismantled

I'm sorry mama,

I know it's hard to see me like this

Heartbroken and drinking like this

Say I'm good, but you don't buy it

I should be trying harder,

To let go of all my vices

Life ain't been no tub of icing

Wounds that won't heal if I ice it

Dreams of 2, 3 commas

On some Jordan shit, balling

Just to buy 'way all my problems

And to erase the nostalgia

To me ain't shit these girls offer

But a headache and some drama

I know this but I still falter

End up still wanting to call ya

So come slide through whenever girl just keep the mood light

Liquor in the morning tryna put up a fight

I've been fucking up so long when will I get right

With all these temptations

I'm fighting temptations

Got all these temptations

I'm fighting temptations

Bitches, Money, Drugs

That's all my life ever was

One feeding off the other

I lived it lord just because

From broken homes and breadcrumbs

I'm too use to being judged

Outlet my pain connecting to the plug

Really needed some love

Now I chase a different substance

Not an abundance of cash

Although that wouldn't be bad

To have stability

Want peace of mind from these repugnant

Intrusive thoughts that I have

And people that act like as

A liability

Lord that shit be killing me

Having to cut off people I thought always be here with me

Ones that shared my dreams I guess they ain't see em as vividly

I don't use others for self gain, mine not utility

I don't got that ability

Learning to take things a little slower

But my brain thinks bout a thousand thoughts a minute, its so hard to get control of

Seems like I don't but I've been tryna do my best to remain sober

Tryna focus on my future since we only getting older but

Let's live in the moment tryna keep the mood light

Liquor in the morning tryna put up a fight

I've been fucking up so long when will I get right

With all these temptations

I'm fighting temptations

Got all these temptations

I'm fighting temptations
