Days Of My Life (Feat. Billy Cook)

The days of my life
The struggle I'm going through
Cause times are too hard
But I gotta make it through
The ghetto of my life
The struggle it ain't right
But I gotta move on
And strapped with my chrome
Cause I feel like they coming for me
But I'mma keep holding on
A guerilla going out like a soldier
That's mobbing till it's over

So many times I'm ready to run the deal
I can't cause it ain't in me
All the hatred people show us
What got me strapped down
With a semi-automatic, living drastic
So don't you get too close to me
Cause I might blast it
And paint another scenery
Nigga this is what they made me
Live in your face
A bonified poverty strucken nigga
Out of place
That was praying to get a chance
But a chance wasn't given to me
The only thing I was given was pain
That I could spit over beats
So guerilla on his last leg
Watching time fly by
Over and over and deep inside
Forever wonder why
Trae never get no chance to be like Mike
Or to live like Mike
Or told, that I'mma be alright
I have no life, and that's why I be
Mobbing and bleeding blocks
Corner to corner
Bended tinted up and away from cops
Grinding and hopefully
One day I can live stress free
So everyday I pray the Lord
Will come and bless me

Got so many tears running down my face
When times got hard
And feel the pain deep inside
When my heart got scarred and I know
That it ain't nothing that
I wanna be feeling
I've been praying for twelve years
And never seemed to be healing
That's why I smile upside down
Till then everybody move around
Cause I don't wanna click on everybody
Why hatred holding me down
It's been hell living
It's Trae I display nothing but hurt
Everything I lived and I seen
Is what's sending me to the dirt
My first born on the way
Will I see it I can't say
My baby mama say I'm zoning too much
And don't wanna stay
But it's ok I made it through
And I lost everyone else
The only thing that's in my life
That I ain't missing is death
Cause everything I loved got took away
And ain't coming back
The only thing I got is me
And it's killing me that's a fact
But I'mma be alright
Long as I'm staying strong
Gotta play the cards I was dealt
Even though this world ain't my home

So you wanna hate me now
Them niggas, try to take me out
I ain't never did them, no wrong
These motherfuckers, better leave me alone
My life, is all I have
And I don't care, I'm in love with that
Deep down, I know I really gotta be strong
And if they run up too quick
They gon meet my chrome
Because this world ain't promised to me
The life that I'm living, is for the day
And the pain I forever feel
Is what got me running a stray
And I don't want much, but it never fell
I can't even get a piece of a piece of mind
Without going through hell
Hard times is what I bleed
A blessing is what I need
So I can get over the struggle
And make it for my seed
These days on the line
And I feel like I'm next to leave
And I hope I'm going to heaven
Aside if I believe

Yeeeah, the days of my liiiiiife
The struggle I'm going through
Feeeel meeeeee
Tell em Trae, when times get hard
We gotta keep our head up
And gotta move on through
Make it on through
The ghetto the ghetto of my life
The struggle, it ain't right
