Life Aint Easy

When I get old I'm a be real cool

Sittin on the porch with a fresh pair of shoes

Whole bunch of stories for the neighborhood kids

Tell em to believe that we makin it big

And I know

That life is nothing easy (nothing easy)

One day, I'm a change the world

And they'll finally believe me

From the outside looking in it seems that I'm fine

But they don't know shit about the everyday grind

Time is money and money is time

They tell me get there at five but I'm running behind

I try and live a little go and have a little fun

You only young once so all the hatin that be dumb

If life a joke then I'm waiting for the punch

You all about the beef but me, I'm bout the bun

The bread cause I was just a little knucklehead

Now I got my shit together spittin what they fuckin with

If they ain't it's great no intention to the hate

Nothing changed still cutting up Henny's still my drink

I'm still the same old dude now makin moves

It's like everything I do front page news

I ain't playin in this game to lose

I want it all no secret the change they can keep it

When I get old I'm a be real cool

Sittin on the porch with a fresh pair of shoes

Whole bunch of stories for the neighborhood kids

Tell em to believe that we makin it big

And I know

That life is nothing easy (nothing easy)

One day, I'm a change the world

And they'll finally believe me

(Hey)

My grandpa told me one day I'll be everything and more

It's better never to question every lesson that's in store

See it's a blessin that I'm gettin through the door

The money gonna fall, when it rain, it pours

Dear music, you're everything I have now

When there's an army commin for me I won't back down

Cause I never was a kid in the background

Just a class clown but who's laughing now

My moms cried when she saw me in a cap and gown

It feels great to see my family proud but

I make mistakes too

My people always tell me Mac

Please don't ever let the fame change you

They say I'm so different but it ain't true

Still got the same girl, roll with the same crew

I'm just doing what it takes for me to make do

And everyone around me gettin paid too

When I get old I'm a be real cool

Sittin on the porch with a fresh pair of shoes

Whole bunch of stories for the neighborhood kids

Tell em to believe that we makin it big

And I know

That life is nothing easy (nothing easy)

One day, I'm a change the world

And they'll finally believe me
