Could Be Worse

Mark Edmond, if you didn't know...

I was once, I was once read somewhere
Never let the things that you want
Make you forget the things that you have

Things probably could be better, but it could be worse
In the, back of a hearse, with my face on shirts
But, I'm here, so I can't complain
Even though, it seems like everyday I witness rain
Yet, smiling like my shit's a stain
But, inside, I be feeling pain
Though I got nothing to lose and everything to gain
If I don't get it, only got myself to blame
Sacrificing, could've bought that new chain
But, I'm chillin'
Stacking paper, which to some might not be appealing
But, I've always known, looks to be deceiving
That's why I'm patient, and OK with
Delayed gratification
Some would say a savvy Haitian

Woke up to some bad news
(But, it could be worse)
Hate that job you're scared to lose
(But, it could be worse)
Found out got cheated on, too
(But, it could be worse)
Sittin' in the crib with no food
(But, it could be worse)
Probably still sharing rooms
(But, it could be worse)
Only one pair of shoes
(But, it could be worse)
Walking around singing the blues
(But, it could be worse)
Everybody got an excuse
(But, it could be worse)

As long as niggaz breathing
The possibilities, are never ending
So, fuck you to those, whose condescending
That's just how I talk
No, I'm not offended
If anything, I'm motivated
I been down this road before
But, now I'm more mature
They didn't let me in
I went, and built my own door
But still, it's a process
Probably gon' hear a lot of no's
But, all is need is just one yes
Whole life can change
A day from now
So imagine, if you, threw in the towel
Don't do it
Me? I rather flop, nigga
Shit don't stop, nigga
'Til the casket drop, nigga

Woke up to some bad news
(But, it could be worse)
Hate that job you're scared to lose
(But, it could be worse)
Found out got cheated on, too
(But, it could be worse)
Sittin' in the crib with no food
(But, it could be worse)
Probably still sharing rooms
(But, it could be worse)
Only one pair of shoes
(But, it could be worse)
Walking around singing the blues
(But, it could be worse)
Everybody got an excuse
(But, it could be worse)
Spent my last G
(But, it could be worse)
Was hit with a maintenance fee
(But, it could be worse)
Fractured my foot last week
(But, it could be worse)
I'm not where I wanna be
(But, it could be worse)
