THE COST

[Verse:] Tired of paying prices and sacrificing the little that I have The price you pay to be happy the cost of designer bags The price I pay to be happy the cost of me feeling bad Feeling like I can’t be happy It’s making somebody mad Now I’m selfish A little short of selfless Like I ain’t give my last to see my people living healthy Like I ain’t give my all and double back to give em extra Like they ain’t living good Now we see who really selfish So now I’m feeling confident But never overdosing on my confidence I put my pride aside To show the world what being humble is I’m showing every scar cause there’s a pain that comes with hustlin’ The problem I would face was giving more and they would never pay us overtime We getting by On penny, dimes How much a dollar really cost It ain't really getting me by How much a dollar really cost If you still been living a lie How much a dollar really cost If you can’t get rid of ya pride How much a dollar really cost For the living to see you die How much a dollar really cost If it’s costing you to survive How much a dollar really cost It ain’t even keeping you ‘round How much a dollar really cost If it ain’t gon keep you alive
