Better Days

Ain't got a deal but it still feels like I'm on now A scary n***a chasing my dreams, I'm putting songs out And I'm usually not pressed for the cream, but the heat is on now I finish undergrad in like a year And med school's a n***a biggest fear But you didn't hear that here Cuz fear is not of God but the devil be in my ear Tried to bury him with a shovel He went and made a new tunnel The birds come by the bundle The bags I try not to fumble Like a D-2 athlete at training day Cuz he knows he only has like 4 four plays that makes his or breaks his showcase And I ain't come this far to flop no I'll never stop till I reach the top Like nosebleeds, I call em the gold seats For one, them hoes cheap plus you can see all ya dreams If you took a trip inside of my mind you would hate to leave it I keep it sharp like a cleaver Got no time for the skeezers I pledged allegiance to my dreams now it's up to me to reach em n***a And ima get there somehow, someway, someday, I pray That God'll make all of my worries go away, I pray, help me see better days Ooh-ahh (Help me see better days) Ooh-ahh Yeah, I'm older now so Mom's ain't holding my hand I gotta think like a man And formulate my own plans I put my all in the pen the ink is just blood from my sins I'm used to holding shit in I barely talk to my friends Or at least about the things I think at night like what is life And how we really ain't living right You claim you righteous but ain't fighting what's your purpose? I look in mirror and know I'm worth it I been working It feels like things are turning half circles for me Most people ignant I can't have nothing but mercy for em I try hard to inform em I hate being formal They see a wise black man they gon try to conform em But ima raise a storm up, im tryna build an army Of GC's cuz I be God's child, And these days nighas wilding Their ain't no church in the wild I ain't been to one in a while And I know it brings my Moms down But ima make her proud by the way that God use her child I love to see her smile
