Lyrics
I feel your struggle
Verse 1 Excel
I?ve seen a lot of people down with their head hung low
Ready to turn their back on the world its time to let it go
We all go through the struggle but that?s why we have muscles
So we can pick ourselves up dust off and continue to hustle
Ive gone through hard times scramble to fight and tussle
Mad verses mind thought it was time for me to give up and truckle
People dying cousins locked down, one doing seven
Stressing my brain out tryina look to see heaven
Oh god why, is it me have I done wrong in the past
Contaminating those around me and those in my path
Paranoia hard to fight, got me holding my head
My people drowning thinking lord wont you take me instead
Im looking ahead, tryina battle my thoughts behind me
And love is down the road and will it ever find me
I just keep my head up and strive for the best
Cuz the obstacles of life dog its only a test
Chorus X?s 2
I feel your struggle, I know what youre going through
I feel your struggle, but lifes what you make it dude
I feel your struggle, cant get caught up looking like a fool
I feel your struggle, the same thing might happen to you
Verse 2 Excel
Stranded on the blocks hustling for loot and flipping,
Selling skim j?s for high prices tryina make a living
And you know the block is hot but your wheel aint stopping
So you keep going stressing 24 seven the feds is watching
Your option is working 9 to 5 for about 6.50
But you gotta pay your rent and the bread aint comin that quickly
So you slangin what you can get big bags and sacks
And niggas is shiesty so you packin a gat
Turning against the world, with the P.O.?s at your back
Thinking as if the government got it in for the blacks
But it aint worth it, a brother got talent somewhere
But you gotta apply yourself dog cuz somebody cares
Its hard times playa, im saying do what you do
But you gotta be smart about it, cuz prison aint cool
My man got locked up, looking like a fool
I feel your struggle cuz the same thing might happen to you
Chrous X?s 2
Verse 3 Young Mastamind
I feel your struggle kicked out at the age of 15
Young female with bloody knuckles and visions of street dreams
Tryina make it out the gutter with family throwin stuff
up in your face like fuck it im talking about my cousin
one locked after another like what is goin on
all I got left is my brother somehow, we holdin on
why is my niggas feelin pain and its sick how the game change
wit our mind on our money and ways to get paid
not locked and not sprayed
we livin in the dirty days of hot blocks and minimum wage
when cops watch, and bringin them raids
im locked up and feelin astray
like its you against the world like tu pac in his early days
who thought, that you would turn up missing
at times, I got to cover my eyes up
when im pissing I don?t want nobody knowing im crying
so if you listening, I love you both
DeDe doin 7 years nigga I don?t know I wanna get ghost
N my cousin P, my right hand man
Slim yes I love you and D, felt like we were banned
From the streets, its sick, its just the life
Of just tryin to rise up and do things right
I feel your struggle
