Struggling Lyrics

I wanna cry

I wanna cry yeah

This life is hard

This life is hard yeah

Look to the sky

Look to the sky yeah

I pray to God

I pray to God yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

Mama can't pay the bills

Brother can't stop poppin' pills

Sister always on her knees

But that's not to say please

There's someone she gotta please

For a small amount of cheese

She tryna pay her fees

Got a lil son that she gotta feed

Aunt works 24 hours a day

Every month end there's no pay

Husband beats her everyday

But for her kids she gotta stay

Lost a second cousin to the streets

Lost the first one when we was six

Booze on the ground we pray for peace

It's cold out there it makes me freeze

It's two years now since I been home

I feel like I'm all alone

My brother is always on the phone

He tryna let me know how it's going

I told him to stay strong

Cause this plan might take long

But I keep my faith in God

He's gonna relieve me of this load

I wanna cry

I wanna cry yeah

This life is hard

This life is hard yeah

Look to the sky

Look to the sky yeah

I pray to God

I pray to God yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

My pops was always dead

Mama had to be a maid

She had to find a way to get paid

Spent half of her life sad

My brothers got locked up, they told me it was hell

In crime they got caught up, a trap in which they fell

I almost hung myself up, they thought I was under a spell

Anxiety had me fed up, I was in a mental cell

Lil sis is fifteen body count already ten

How she do herself like that man this shit is insane

All the efforts you put towards yourself now it's all in vain

What happened to stayin' in school girl you always had the brain

These people wanna put you down don't listen to what they sayin'

You gotta believe in yourself and you always gotta be praying'

I wanna cry

I wanna cry yeah

This life is hard

This life is hard yeah

Look to the sky

Look to the sky yeah

I pray to God

I pray to God yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah

We struggling

We struggling yeah
