Yeah been on struggle
Man I live a hard life scarred barefooted walk into flames
Can't explain the many reasons why I'm living insane
And I blame my situations on our economic starvation
You holding back on reparations due for building this nation
It ain't no secret ** masonic logic my knowledge got it
Poppin' shots on helicopters swat teams and paparazzi's
Black osama bin laden I'm bringing the drama for she's
I'm screaming babylon come learn every time you burn me
Your murdered pregnant women left babies hanging from trees
Assassinated malcolm x king pac and b i g
My kids are hungry my lady said she don't want me one time
Is trying to hurt me man that's why I sing the blues
Come take a walk in my shoes my life should be in the news
Just like a ** born alone that's why I sing the blues
My kids are hungry my lady said she don't want me one time
Is trying to hurt me man that's why I sing the blues
Come take a walk in my shoes my life should be in the news
Feel like a ** born alone that's why I sing the blues
Government property diplomatic bureaucracy president's money
Likes to lie pathologically money is all evil but money will feed you
There's ** no money don't let money deceive you
Also suffer from a case of right and wrong because right is right
And wrong is wrong revolution revelation to wash away satan
'Cause I'm living in hell and there is no vacation
I sang the blues when the missionaries came passing out bibles in jesus name
Now survival be the game
I sang the blues on the hull of the slave ship shackled and chained
The same blood of an african king
I sang the blues on the cotton field it's still in my veins
Hustling to make the daily yield a struggle and pain
Got me singing my song of survival going through things
I know one day it's gonna be better I just gotta maintain
My kids are hungry my lady said she don't want me one time
Is trying to hurt me man that's why I sing the blues
Come take a walk in my shoes my life should be in the news
Just like a ** born alone that's why I sing the blues
My kids are hungry my lady said she don't want me one time
Is trying to hurt me man that's why I sing the blues
Come take a walk in my shoes my life should be in the news
Feel like a ** born alone that's why I sing the blues
Sometimes I smoke and think about when we be broke we be without
'Cause when you poor you down and out but then I go a different route
I just step up to the challenge and go against the odds
Military frame of mind get big go hard so
Sing the blues for somebody else you can sing them for the system
Read them and weep this what I've been dealt so
Sing a church hymn for the many government men and women
Thinking that people won't box up and get with them
Gotta get this money they wanna saw bro living life on the concrete
In the ghetto where they poppy cities north and the streets be cold as hockey
Homicide **s dropping like birds build a yacht take off from the earth
** dealers get bust on the curb little kids wanna know what's the word
Struggle is his birth raised up on the turf
For the sticks get gunned up so put your funds up
And run to your folks that's another funder
It ain't no game plenty came and it's getting worse
And please believe when the crack ** I'm swinging thugs
My kids are hungry my lady said she don't want me one time
Is trying to hurt me man that's why I sing the blues
Come take a walk in my shoes my life should be in the news
Just like a ** born alone that's why I sing the blues
My kids are hungry my lady said she don't want me one time
Is trying to hurt me man that's why I sing the blues
Come take a walk in my shoes my life should be in the news
Feel like a ** born alone that's why I sing the blues
My kids are hungry my lady said she don't want me one time
Is trying to hurt me man that's why I sing the blues
Come take a walk in my shoes my life should be in the news
Just like a ** born alone that's why I sing the blues
My kids are hungry my lady said she don't want me one time
Is trying to hurt me man that's why I sing the blues
Come take a walk in my shoes my life should be in the news
Feel like a ** born alone that's why I sing the blues
