1
Ooh, you feel that
2
As I take you to them dirt roads, deep down in your southern roots
3
Where nobody said life was gon' be easy
4
And we travel through this emotional roller coaster called life
5
And we have our ups and downs
6
Just keep in mind, when you hit rock bottom
7
There ain't nowhere to go but up, baby
8
Just all about how you deal with it, ya feel me
9
Listen here
10
When life seems hopeless
11
It make a nigga lose focus
12
Empty beer bottles and roaches
13
Helps to get it off my chest
14
'Cause I'm so stressed
15
And all I hear is fuck the world
16
When life seems hopeless
17
It make a nigga lose focus
18
Empty beer bottles and roaches
19
Helps to get it off my chest
20
'Cause I'm so stressed
21
And all I hear is fuck the world
22
Man, ever since life's been a gamble, my life's been in shambles
23
Double-edge swords burning both sides of the candle
24
But Chris, you can't handle the truth
25
Don't wanna face reality
26
So lower than accept my apology
27
Please, like when police say freeze
28
And I ain't do shit but I'm down on my knees
29
It's a crooked system but gin straight take the pain away
30
I charge the game and put my problems on layaway
31
A black man but I feel so blue
32
So I smoke green and purple 'til my dreams come true
33
And my eyes turn red, the sky turns gray
34
Children slangin' white in the hood, we call it yay
35
Drinkin' Ol' Gold down my yellow brick road
36
Then we write my script until my story's untold
37
See, I got a little money and my life's sped up
38
Now I'm fallen and I can't get up
39
When life seems hopeless
40
It make a nigga lose focus
41
Empty beer bottles and roaches
42
Helps to get it off my chest
43
'Cause I'm so stressed
44
And all I hear is fuck the world
45
When life seems hopeless
46
It make a nigga lose focus
47
Empty beer bottles and roaches
48
Helps to get it off my chest
49
'Cause I'm so stressed
50
And all I hear is fuck the world
51
I had a dream about a dope fiend
52
And it's strange 'cause he get a Bentley right away
53
Seem to get just for 'bout anything
54
Pure survival, I want to talk with him
55
He said he was too busy for that
56
But I was more than willing the walk with him
57
So as we walked, he talked and I just listened
58
He said, ‽There's a big difference between crackers and niggazâ€
59
And he said, ‽White folks look out for the white folksâ€
60
But uhh, black folks blame other black folks
61
When there ain't enough black folks
62
But yo, to make a long story short
63
We need to pay more attention
64
And do things that's way more convincing
65
And he told me you know
66
I wouldn't say something
67
What's working or not
68
Damn sure, wouldn't waste my time
69
Tellin' you something that'll hurt you
70
It's your fault for anything, if you done
71
Stand for something that's for certain
72
But niggaz don't be listenin' and that shit be hurtin'
73
Not all of us but some of us
74
And if we don't hurry up
75
They gon bury each and every life of us
76
When life seems hopeless
77
It make a nigga lose focus
78
Empty beer bottles and roaches
79
Helps to get it off my chest
80
'Cause I'm so stressed
81
And all I hear is fuck the world
82
When life seems hopeless
83
It make a nigga lose focus
84
Empty beer bottles and roaches
85
Helps to get it off my chest
86
'Cause I'm so stressed
87
And all I hear is fuck the world
88
Sometimes I can't deal with my daily issues just being sober
89
Life's a bitch and I can't control her
90
I wish I could and sometimes to cry on we need a shoulder
91
The government stand us up to run us over
92
And in the hood, they don't seem to understand, goddamn
93
What's really got me wondering, if this part of the bigger plan?
94
Man, I smell something fishy going on
95
It's way beyond blowing away the smoke from all of swishas going on
96
There ain't much that I can do about it, no
97
But preach the word, tell my peoples spend your money wisely, yup
98
Don't be absurd by somethings that are fishy, like what
99
Like at home, wake up and open your eyes to what the fuck is going on
100
'Cause they constantly getting rid of us, yup
101
One by one, whether it's drugs or diseases or it's gun by gun
102
I ain't no saint either, I feel I'm even doing wrong
103
By using what's in this chorus to get through this song
104
When life seems hopeless
105
It make a nigga lose focus
106
Empty beer bottles and roaches
107
Helps to get it off my chest
108
'Cause I'm so stressed
109
And all I hear is fuck the world
110
When life seems hopeless
111
It make a nigga lose focus
112
Empty beer bottles and roaches
113
Helps to get it off my chest
114
'Cause I'm so stressed
115
And all I hear is fuck the world
116
You know, y'all gonna mess around and keep on complaining
117
'Bout slavery and umm, that was over 40-50 years ago, you know
118
Black folks need to move on
119
No stay strong and umm, y'all keep playing with us crackers
120
They gonna have your ass somewhat tied up, wired up
121
Of the back roads of South Florida, Georgia, you know
122
And they made the law, so this shit can't do nothing for you
123
Can a church get an Amen, God for the thugs too, Amen
