There It Goes (feat. Madame Muzik)

Everyday is a struggle
That ain't even the question
Getting up from the rubble
Check me out on the recollection
I was only 15
Loading up the magazine
'Cause it's time to hit the streets
And you know the shit gets real
When it's time to get the green
When you gotta make a choice
Minimum wage at McDs
Or it's serving them fiends
It ain't easy for a teen
In the ghetto where it seems
That we're set up
It's a scheme
Wanna put us all in prison
Man, I tell you
It's a scheme
And what the fuck do we do
In order to avoid it
I learned how to rhyme
But homie, how do I exploit it
'Cause if I learned anything
It's the way that it goes
You either find out your talents
Or you watch it all go down the toilet
And there it goes

Live for today
Will I see tomorrow
Life in the fast lane
Oh, there it goes

I'm a grown man now
And the mission stays the same
But now the bills got higher
So the hustle gets insane
You could ask anyone
They know me for the hustle
'Cause the mission once again
Is to flex my money muscle
So you see me every day
Up and down getting paid
But unlike back in the days
It's no longer lemonade
'Cause I stay away from jail
Wasting time in that cell
Wasting money on the bail
Nah
That can't ever be me
So I do it all official
And then you see me
On that mission to get rich
And you either down with me
Or you stay away, bitch
That's the way that it is
When I handle my biz
You follow?
Yes, my heart is so very cold and hollow
After many years of sorrow
Steady clutching on that bottle
All the time I had to borrow
Just to see a new tomorrow
And there it goes

Live for today
Will I see tomorrow
Life in the fast lane
Oh, there it goes

Everyday I do my best
To put the homies up on game
But it ain't up to me
If they choose to stay the same
If they do something official
Or they stay selling cocaine
My part in this circle
Is to show by example
So I turn up the amp
And then I'm spitting them raps
I know that life is a gamble
And so I'm playing these craps
I see the pigs laying traps
But it's all up to me
If I stick to these raps
Or if I choose to sling crack
And if I catch a fucking case
Then I already know
I watch my life go to waste
And there it goes

Live for today
Will I see tomorrow
Life in the fast lane
Oh, there it goes
