Tryin' To Survive

(Ronnie Spencer)

Ooooooh, yeeeeeeeah

Yeeeeah-ay, ooooh yeah

[Hook: Isis Re]

I don't know, how I can survive

In these streets, hard to be me

I can surviiiive

[Ronnie Spencer]

And I don't know how long, I can survive

Living in these streets

Puffing on these sweets, keeps me alive

And I don't know how long, I can hold on

When I look into the sky, see the birds fly

Keeps me holding on

And I don't know what to do

This life is taking me, through my up's and down's

And I can't get off this ride, holding on so tight

I just close my eyes (close my eyes)

I had to keep from going under, like Stevie I wonder thinking hard

Running out of places to lay my head, got me drinking hard

Born struggling, a fellow achieved his bubbling

The fact that I can't get no job, don't do nothing but rub it in

I'm running out of time, and I'm sick of slanging nickels and dimes

Ducking the police daily, is affecting my grind

Losing my mind behind the wrong woman, that say she loves me

Long as I'm dropping on the rent, everything is lovely

So many features in songs, tell me why I ain't got no home

Penitentiary grown cause I roam, with a pocket full of stones

Somebody tell me, will I make it to the cream of the crop

Forever stressed, so I be screaming a lot

Dog at twenty years old, I use to know that I'd be reaching 25

Now 24 and still no do', my job is struggle and strive

I keep my heat up under my seat, when I creep

Cause I just met Mr. Sweets, but now he under my feet

Man it's a cold cold world, that we living in

Killas'll take your life, and it ain't gotta be about no divid-ends

Forgive me for my sins, I'm just trying to make it

Trying to keep my pistol from my head, cause I just can't take it

Jesus, I'm trying to survive

[Ronnie Spencer]

And I don't know what to do

This life is taking me, through my up's and down's

And I can't get off this ride, holding on so tight

I just close my eyes (close my eyes)
