Maintain

How can I maintain With all this pain With all this pain How can I maintain With all this pain With all this pain Searching for understanding I'm tryna find the reason why I'm here on this planet Trapped in my mind Won't allow my heart to shine I've been feeling this way People left me astray I continue living this way Living a life of fear I can't hold back my tears I have dreams of making it I find it hard to be patience When there's money to get yeah my life needs change I wanna live better the ghetto has made me insane praying for change Cause my niggas selling rocks probably near your spot Not tryna knock the hustle this all we got But we fail to realize that this is a trap That put most of in jail We living through hell Tryna prevail wake up smell the coffee How can I maintain With all this pain With all this pain How can I maintain With all this pain With all this pain Looking at my eyes tell me what you see A young man tryna heal a broken dream I don't want to be a reflection of my community They got shit planed for cats like you and me Once free I'm trap in my crazy mind I don't know if have any time to shine They took my nigga snupe at 18 A good man good soul I pray I don't experience the same thing I have dreams my city is like a war zone Love ones getting killed in the own home Little kids gotta grow up fast and be grown feeling alone Another fatherless child but stay strong How can I maintain With all this pain With all this pain How can I maintain With all this pain With all this pain
