It's on Us (feat. Kiing Lavon)

Man I been stressing all night
Trynna see how imma make ends meet
Got my manhood shook
Can't support my own woman and Rent was due last week

I Promised I'd never be like that guy
Who talk heavy yet his whole action was misery
Like Missouri she keep sayin I need you to show me better
Cuz my procrastination was the reason we couldn't eat

I swear...
Damn
She still here
Her situation ain't no better than me

And I keep tellin her have patience wit me
Yet I fail to realize that her patience will never leave
Cuz once she fell in love she saw the potential in me
To... be the provider I always wanted to be

Two years later
She still helpin me wit what I need
But we both in Reno strugglin
All over one degree (AH)

BUT ONCE I GET I PROMISE I'LL THE M.A.N.
BE ON THE CLOCK SO MUCH
YOU'D THINK I'D GET MORE HOURS
THAN A MANAKIN

STACK THIS PAPER UP
JUST ENOUGH FOR US TO GET THE HECK OUTTA HERE
MOVE TO HOUSTALANTAVEGAS
L.A. (And then I'll broke again)

I'm playin
Or am I
That big dream
Was dwindling through my chaos

Can't even keep a check right now for the life of me
So how I'm supposed to know that my future won't be as frightening
Slightly got this feelin' this college life will go quietly down hill
Droppin' out don't seem so bad

Then factor my own dad
Flyin out to end my life wit his bare hands
Death should never end like that
So Never mind though

You see I've been up on this couch for a while though
Found the motivation to get up on my grind
But I barely did that
I broke my knee now I'm physically and mentally disabled at that

See life will never go wrong in the terms of it paying you back...
Guess I gotta do more for her
Make moves even though this pain is similar to a Kings fan
When Horry hit that shot against Sac. from way back

My girl is gettin sick of the boy
I even considered leavin to make it easier for her
But no way, I couldn't bargain
Though the ocean plentiful I am just
Way too selfish like a seafood market

These eyes catapult disdain
Deprived by the reality of how broke I am in multiple ways
Fiddling with my own flesh when remembered the quote
Yo characters defined by how well you can conquer yo brain

I Said Its on us (On us)
Why is everything on us
Swear it's on Us (On us)
Why am I feeling so stuck

I Said it's on us (On us)
Why is everything on Us?
My situations been so stagnant
I can't seem to get up out of this funk

See Its on Us
On Us
Let's play the blame game
It ain't my fault

Swear it's on Us
On Us
But once you play the blame game
You have already lost

Said it's on Us (On Us)
Why is everything on Us?
Why's Everything On Us?
Why's Everything On Us?

Man
F this feelin
F this life
I'm tired of livin

Tired of tryin... It's to hard
My girls too good... I don't deserve her...
Bills done piled...
It's my fault

I've been injured, I've considered
Actin out on all these thoughts
Where is God... Where's the bond
Get Me out, Out of this feelin... Out this city...
Change my thought

This ain't me
You've gon too far
Pick yourself up
Grow some heart

I had to tell myself in order to grow
You need this pressure like you under a rock
No Patrick star, but reconsider the thought
More like a diamond covered up in the box

Eventually you'll shine
So grow some balls
And get out of these negative thoughts
You can't progress in life until make an effort to start
(Yea)

Yup
So I'm finna make an effort to start
I can't get comfortable
With all this restin' weight in my heart

I ain't mean to take an advantage
Of us bein' together
I can't imagine what would happened
If I tore us apart... But I know

All feelin' getting lost
Lately, I've been getting numb
I know that it ain't yo fault
And I just been feelin' dumb

My actions are what it cost
I promise that I'm the one
Priorities getting lost

I i know that I was taught not to give up
I started my bad habits
I said that I'd make it count
I'm workin on mathematics

This ain't what you're use to
I promise the bad chapter can clear up soon
And then so will the bad static
Ironic

Love makin' me feel like a crack addict
But I don't mean in literal
I'm talkin just in general

And everything around me
Crashing down in my peripheral
I'm getting it together
Ain't no choice because it's critical I'm...

I'm starting to feel so different
World so cold
And now that it get me shiverin'

I can't ignore the pressure
It's overwhelming my innocence
Took me to my knees
Feeling like I'm tearin' a ligament

It's damaging
Opportunities done got to vanishing
Seen my open wounds and told em
I don't need to bandage it

My father always told me not to
Block off my blessing
But now it's all on me to figure out
And learn from my lessons (King)

I Said Its on us (On us)
Why is everything on us
Swear it's on Us (On us)
Why am I feeling so stuck

I Said it's on us (On us)
Why is everything on Us?
My situations been so stagnant
I can't seem to get up out of this funk

See Its on Us
On Us
Let's play the blame game
It ain't my fault

Swear it's on Us
On Us
But once you play the blame game
You have already lost

Said it's on Us (On Us)
Why is everything on Us?
Why's Everything On Us?
Why's Everything On Us?
