Intro:
heres a song to play that no one asked for but we all need
this the song to play when life got a thorn up its ass and ain’t acting right
play this
Verse 1:
Just gonna go right in
Damn it ain’t easy being
A playa
( playa?)
nah life really
kicking our ass right now
Player card
revoked
But
It seems
Like life tryna play us like a joke
Life…
What
In the
Actual
H…E
DOUBLE hockey sticks ???
( talk to em now )
some of us raising kids off 3 hours of sleep
some barely have enough groceries to last more than a week.
some people pulling
doubles
left and right like they pulling weeds
Some putting in that over time.
Covering other folks shift
Where the raise at?
(THAT PART tho)
And some people working grave yard shifts (yall strong)
some got a long ass commute
So yes moods be off
And by the time we hit traffic
Of course we
hit red light after red light
(Like damn)
Then when life really hit us
We fall back
(I Can’t make this up)
life without a car can be really rough
sometimes no choice but to ride share or catch the bus
just sitting there like “damn… this is my life right now”
(Chin up yall we shall not frown)
So
Damn straight
When pay day hit
We checkin our banks
makin sure our moneyies hit
(Mmhm)
Life be lifeing
But we trugging along
Some looking left and right for jobs
(nothing sticks)
Sometimes it’s that ONE job
( you least wanted)
That always sticks
Shit we trying but it’s hard
Reality really hit
How you expect us to have it figured out by tomorrow?
(come again)
Nah
Come at us correct
Take that thorn out yo…
Matter fact keep it moving
(JUST LIKE US)
We be keeping it moving
Meanwhile life is in distress
(Yep)
Like no We supposed to live
(yep)
We dealing with our own stress
(yep)
Life wanna throw back some
“what about yalls credit?”
Man
we done tried
to get our credit up
Sometimes life sets us back
and we gotta build it back up
(duh)
(let em know)
Hook:
Hair falling out from stress
Why you leaving us in distress ?
Robbing Paul to pay Peter
Sleep deprivation at an all time high
Prayers for good health
tryna make our shit shake
Coping in our own ways
And yes this can last for days
So life answer us straight
Why you making this our fate?
Verse 2:
Man
This making me mad
Gotta end this track
All we know is life better act right
We never asked to live this life
[Male vocal] I know I didn’t
[Female vocal] I didn’t either
Okay yall come on
We here now
Life ain’t acting right
But shit you know what?
We still outside surviving
We handling stress
Effortlessly
(not)
like it’s normal
Smiling like we not tired
Getting by
on a wing and a prayer
(yep)
Physically here
But Mentally somewhere else
not there
(Some place peaceful)
and somehow that counts as
“functioning adults getting by”
But we here
we all here
still showing up
Outro:
So Life Make your list Check it twice but us ?
We taking this shit
(Yep) We grabbing our cups
Cheers to making lemonade tonight (vodka mix)
Straight up no chaser needed tonight
StraightupNoChaser
