Fourteen

Yo, we at war with politics
We at war with inequality
Police brutality, injustice
But most of all, we at war with ourselves

We can be better
We can push harder, we can eat better
We can sleep better, we can love more, yeah we can be better
We can push harder, we can eat better
We can sleep better, we can love more

Check it out now
Woke up, piss drunk
Just like every day this month
I must have blacked out on the fifth blunt
My girl's mad now 'cause I missed lunch
I rush to the house and she's shouting at me, cussing me out, loud as can be
I get down on my knees, she's tossing my kicks, all of my shit's out on the street

Boo, take me back, too late for that
Two times I warned you, you ain't react
Are you blazing crack?
Damn you and your fugazi act, your suitcase is packed
Can't, can't be worse
Only real men put their family first
I can't walk around drunk like an angry jerk
Doing dumb shit that I can't reverse

I got a offspring, that's alarming
My life is toxic and harming
Gotta drop the bottle of vodka
Stop doing shots with the barmen

I copped an apartment, stopped eating garbage, cooked more and I shopped at the market
Swapped the bar with the bookstore, did squats every morning, I'm not finna forfeit
From push up to pull up, push with my hood up, sweat all I could out then eat til full up
Way in the a.m.s, that's when I get up
I put my own foot up my ass when fed up
Do daily jogging
Pain is throbbing, each séance will pay off, David Goggins
And I stay evolving, training often, crazy boxing to Crossfit, slaying toxins, I

I went so deep, where I'd never been
I don't need OE or amphetamines
The codeine and anything
I'm a better me, looking at the old me from a mezzanine
And I don't see the resemblance
It's hard to believe, I need darkness to see

I made real life progress, and I feel like Moses when he parted the sea
I'm back with my girl and my kid again
Still struggle with addiction, but it's different
This is for those in pain that's listening
Anyone can change with a little bit of discipline

We can be better
We can push harder, we can eat better
We can sleep better, we can love more
Our loved ones we all gotta treat better
Be safe!
