Thai: Midnight Blues

Now in life
I'm just trying to expand my horizons
Trying to make it to the top
Like a mountain climber
You can hate me now
But bet y'all love me later
Because once I make it to the top
Then you will see who's greater
How can you down on your own kind
Knowing he's real
How can you even down on me
Not knowing the deal
I've explained myself many times
I live in the streets
Now I'm hustling with these raps
So my family can eat
Moving from state to state
And house to house
Mom's working hard for rent
So they don't kick us out
It seems you all live too good
To imagine my struggles
Imagine my troubles
Bet y'all wishing my life gonna go crumble
But I still stay humble
And try to rise above water
And build a community
So we could raise our sons and daughters
A life is important
Seeing my people poor is my motive
So whatever I do in life
I'ma finish what I started

Midnight blues
When the clock strikes twelve
Then I feel I'm in hell
Midnight blues
Have to overcome these stages in life
By any means necessary
Midnight blues
When I'm feeling down and out
Who was there for me
Midnight blues
When I'm gone
Laying six feet deep

I got shot one time
But I guess I was lucky
Out of twenty bullets flaming to my dome
One touched me
No matter where you are in this world
It's cruel
Try to get an education
While kids shooting up schools
There's no running and hiding
So we learn to survive
It's like playing Russian Roulette
In this game of life
You win or you lose
Depends on the life that you choose
Depends on you
It's your choice
If you play by the rules
I spit bars of steel with lyrics
Real explicit
My meal ticket
To get up out this bitch
They say my style is weak
As if I won't grow
But I still put it down at 19 years old
Respected and earned it
So you busters don't know shit
I'm grinding while you hiding in the dark
Yapping your lip
Smacking you bitch
Making you notice real game
Say what you want
But me
I'ma always be the same
Midnight blues

Midnight blues
When the clock strikes twelve
Then I feel I'm in hell
Midnight blues
Have to overcome these stages in life
By any means necessary
Midnight blues
When I'm feeling down and out
Who was there for me
Midnight blues
When I'm gone
Laying six feet deep

It's about time for everybody to open their minds up and take a look at the game, strategize a plan for us all to make it, you know what I'm saying? Only the real mother fuckers can feel me on this one, I'll tell you that. We all need to be united as one to make something big happen in this industry. So think about it. I'm out this bitch, dog.
