Work a couple jobs, ain't make enough

It's the year 2015, and I'm workin' at Party City
Still tryna make it in the hardest city
Went through a breakup but my heart is with me
Soul so full, but I'm feelin' empty
Checkin' my phone seein' what they sent me
I'm on Aisle 2 but I'm home mentally
I needed somethin' else since the early 20's, yeah
Clock in and out, now I'm at a desk job, then I got sent to the warehouse
It was feelin' like Best Buy, bein' dawg was the best ride
Had a few shows here and there, rehearsed at the sweatshop
From a bus stop to a train stop
Told myself, "Can't be in the same spot"
Told myself, "Can't be in the same spot"
Met a co-worker, yeah, and his name was James
Showed a young boy how to mane, attain
Now I figured out how to make a way
Job closed down, but I wasn’t phased
Got off my ass and we still got pain
Years go by and we here to stay
A part of the game, ain’t come to play
Commit my sins, then wash away
Said

Pain, pain, go away, please come back another day
Rest my head down where I lay, release my stress out from this jay
Pain, pain, go away, please come back another day
Rest my head down where I lay, release my stress out from this-

Turn to the pemmay love, yeah-yeah

Yeah, uh, I keep wakin' up
Can't really sleep 'cause I think too much
I don't really share what I'm thinkin' of
Thoughts run awhile, so I roll it up
I don't really do too much linkin' up
Stay to myself, I'm an introvert
All I really do is just record and work
No breaks in, feelin' overworked, but I'm more alert
It's the year 2016, me and bro, yeah, we plottin' on big dreams
Got married to my high school sweetheart
Fast forward, Dad lookin' for his green card (Damn)
Immigration, John send him to the big yard
Cried tears, yeah, that shit really hit hard
Now we 'boutta go hard tryna live large
Can't stop 'til we both see the big dawg
'Member days I was workin' on Fifth Ave
Thinkin' back, like, damn, I need a big bag
Walkin' past all the stores, lookin' big mad
Now I'm thankful for the blessings that I do have
Walk through, now they lookin', like, "Who them?"
We the way, now they timed, outta durag
Pop tags, don't brag, we don't do that
Stayed down, stayed real, yeah, true that, ay

If you knew what we been through, how we far we came and how we grew
Been through this, ain't nothin' new, justice who ain't got no crew
