Lil Skies
Struggle
[Verse 1]
Look, do you really wanna fuck with a n***a like me?
Chain icey, no spikily
Just might be the best MC comin' out the CB
Sip lean out my cup feelin' sleepy
Lil n***as tellin' me they wanna be me
I'm 16 livin' life like I'm 23
With the OG's in the cut sippin' Hennessey
And I'm just a lil n***a with the old heads
Tryna make my bread thicker
Started prayin' even though I was a born sinner
Workin' hard everyday like I'm born to be a winner
I need time, writin' lines for the fiends like I serve dimes
Optomus in his prime, got the right drive
You want pennies? I'ma snatch fives
Take yours then I take mines
Swear I'm never in the right mindset, is it my time yet?
God takin' too long, I ain't shine bright yet
Drop a bomb on the beat, no bomb threats
Spent nights lookin' back, I don't have no regrets
I'm a young n***a, earn my respect
When you see me better greet me as a vet
Free my n***as out the cell, we up next
Rest in piece to gunna gunna, that's my flesh, gang
Chill with gorillas, but mob with them killers that snatchin' yo chain
Shit ain't been the same since n***as got change now n***as just bang
My brothers, my brothers, no bitch in between, I'll die for my blood
I say "fuck what I was" cause now I'm that n***a who risin' above
[Chorus]
Chambersburg Pennsylvania, what I'm reppin'
That's that 717, all my n***as we some legends, yeah
From the dirt and now we get it off the muscle
All my n***as gotta hustle just to make it out the struggle, yeah
Chambersburg Pennsylvania, what I'm reppin'
That's that 717, all my n***as we some legends, yeah
From the dirt and now we get it off the muscle
All my n***as gotta hustle just to make it out the struggle, yeah

[Verse 2]
Say fuck what I was, I'm stuck in my ways of bein' a thug
Nobody showed love, my n***as sold drugs
I knew all the plugs, their shooters wear gloves
I walk to the gate, hate on my face
Life was a race and I'm down for the chase
Still gettin' faded and snatchin' this cake
He passed away now I see rainy days
My uncle in jail, my soul full of anger
My circle stay small, I can't fuck with you strangers
Always been ready providing them bangers
I left the old me hangin' up on the hanger
This life is a bitch, I'm fuckin' her good
I bought a new chain just to say that I could
Smoked my first blunt in the back of the woods
Pop open the hood then back to the hood, I'm
I'm the n***a with the gold chain gettin' brain from a bad bitch, you believe that?
Used to be a broke boy makin' no noise now I'm walking in the store screaming "That I need that"
Used to see all the n***as with the 45's givin' high fives to the n***as on the come up
N***as, got thrown in the dump truck
Cops run up and they pullin' out handcuffs
It's just the life that we live
Hol up, God can you forgive me, for the shit that I did?
I realized it was a trip
Shit, but that's just how it is, uh
When you tryna make it big, uh
And I never liked cops, nah
I just can't fuck with pigs
