Prevail

Tryna prevail in a small city I'm just praying to prevail, yeah It's hard to keep a smile when you going through this hell Lord help me, cause it is hard to tell, when days will get better Life is like a prison cell I'm just tryna make it That number I just took it, I knew it wasn't right But it's like I seen the ocean looking into her eyes I didn't really know she was a snake in disguise How can we be happy when we living in a lie We sleeping too much in the beds that we lie We worry about a tweet but we still losing time Yeah, we still loosing time Look, we loosing all this time All this pain that I felt The burdens that put on myself Past mistakes, the greatest fall, the ugly shame I would struggle to call Jesus name Sitting in a dark room start to feel insane I thank God for that moment Tryna prevail in a small city I thank God for that moment Tryna prevail in a small city Raised in the city Flint, MI Everyday that I live doesn't seem right The government promote drugs in the system My name was scratched off the foster care system Tryna prevail in this hell we're living Why scammers always call my line Shawty had bad attentions But I could never take the time just to listen All they rep is gang relations, the way they're living I hear that all the time All the time, that's all they've ever known What they live is gonna show This trauma is all we've ever known What we live is really gonna show What we live is really gonna show Tryna prevail in a small city
