[Intro]
This is my story, my struggle, uh
My bittersweet symphony, my pain, check it
[Verse 1]
Food getting lower, money coming slower
d*** land lord keep b******* cause you owe her
I'm too afraid to grow up, I'm pray to God I blow up
And roll up in something foreign where the front doors go up
I wonder if my peers could hear my prayers
The only n**** got me scared is the man upstairs
When my back against the wall, I'mma face my fears
I'll swallow my pride 'fore I swallow a tear
Cause I be going hard, Stevie on his job
I'm praying until something happen, I'm answering to God
These wolves got me scarred
I try so hard to survive, guess just to prosper gotta strive
[Verse 2]
Then I hit the stage, all gone and blazed
Everybody know my name and the song I sings
I rejoice my pain and they doing the same
And the haters gonna hate, I'm just doing my thing
Got my bad b**** with me she so dangy
Said she love ASAP cause we so tangy
Living life fast so I feel like kids
And I'm blowing up fast so I feel like BIG
With the Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis
Now we doing deals with the major businesses
Get a little change, n***** feel a little strange
Uh-oh truck flow, pull off in a range
n***** say I changed but I'm living it up
s*** if money didn't change you, you ain't getting enough
f*** cop and the calm? Tryna fly to the stars
Smooth on the moon and I be mobbing to mars
n***** say I'm ill, y'all ain't telling me s***
Nights that I cried, y'all ain't help me with s***
Ooh money change drastic, flew through gymnastic
The doors lift up and the roof do a back flip
Zooming through traffic, probably with a bad b****
Slash actress and we on our way to Saks Fifth
Life was so tragic, all of that was past tense
Now I'm living lavish, this got to be magic
[Outro]
If I should die before I wake
Pray the lord my soul to take
As I lay me down to sleep
Pray the lord I rest in peace
This is my story, my struggle, uh
My bittersweet symphony, my pain, check it
[Verse 1]
Food getting lower, money coming slower
d*** land lord keep b******* cause you owe her
I'm too afraid to grow up, I'm pray to God I blow up
And roll up in something foreign where the front doors go up

The only n**** got me scared is the man upstairs
