One Day at a Time

Mane
Smokey City stand up
North Memphis stand up
All the hustlers stand up
God people, stand up

I gave the game all that I could
It don't gotta be said, it's already understood
I was tryna get on, and get us up out the hood
One day at time, grinding getting to it
Built for this I can do it
I'm really out in the field
I don't take it for granted, I take it for what it is
Really up out the mud, been getting it how i live
Blood out in the streets, been hustling hard for years
Showing love get you killed

One day at a time, how I gotta live
Nothing guaranteed in life but something gotta give
I'm sick of seeing suckers flaunting bout that life for real
It don't even cost a nickel just to keep it real
These niggas too jap, I'm 2 strapped
448 grams in a gift wrap
FN on me, don't get out of line
I'm very important, can't let you waste my time
I been on my grind! Handling my business
Lately I'm speaking less, observing and listening
I'm a mathematician, running up the numbers
Counting my blessings, remaining humble

I gave the game all that I could
It don't gotta be said, it's already understood
I was tryna get on, and get us up out the hood
One day at time, grinding getting to it
Built for this I can do it
I'm really out in the field
I don't take it for granted, I take it for what it is
Really up out the mud, been getting it how i live
Blood out in the streets, been hustling hard for years
Showing love get you killed

Don't expect another you out of somebody else
They claim they got you, but really won't even help they self
They get offended by your growth, but keep elevating
I'm still down, they look at me like I'm levitating
Some wanna see me dead instead of celebrated
The lord with me, I'm covered through every situation
Had small beginnings stayed dedicated
Nobody clapped for me, I was self motivated!
Check my resume, I'm well decorated
I'm really from the street, plus I'm educated
God words on my heart, I'm big favored
When they throwing salt, that just add flavor

I gave the game all that I could
It don't gotta be said, it's already understood
I was tryna get on, and get us up out the hood
One day at time, grinding getting to it
Built for this I can do it
I'm really out in the field
I don't take it for granted, I take it for what it is
Really up out the mud, been getting it how i live
Blood out in the streets, been hustling hard for years
Showing love get you killed

Everybody claim they love you till you tell 'em no
After one misunderstanding true colors will show
Ima believe em the 1st time, say no mo
It's all good, but it'll never be like it was before
It is what it is, if you know you know
They call me young Jehova, I give the hood hope
Heal 'em with the voice, all these words dope
It's real life in all these lines and these rhymes spoke
Whatever that you wanna do just give yo all to it
Never second guess, make sure you see through it
That's real talk all facts, trust and believe
Staying focused is worth it, i ain't say it was easy

I gave the game all that I could
It don't gotta be said, it's already understood
I was tryna get on, and get us up out the hood
One day at time, grinding getting to it
Built for this I can do it
I'm really out in the field (I Am)
I don't take it for granted,I take it for what it is
Really up out the mud, been getting it how i live
Blood out in the streets, been hustling hard for years
Showing love get you killed
Mane
