A WHILE NOW

Wo Have been facing it all alone for a while now nobody checked on me

Have been moving in the dark faking the smile my heart is so heavy

Tryna carry all this weight, but this game ain’t steady

Yes I grind for the money but inside very I’m broke

I’m Feeling outside but lowkey I dey inside

Friends ghosted when the bag slowed down a bit

Now it’s me with couple demons no one to split my bills

Feeling lost but found but i gotta play my role

Cause this world love a winner, not a soul that lose

No one see the nights I cry while I count my stress

Put pain in the bars, and let the beat feel the rest

Every smile is a disguise, every laugh is a mask

Hustling through the hell I hope the peace gonna last

They see the chains, they don’t see the pain

They see the wins, they don’t see the strain

I’m a hustler but I’m hurting trapped in my brain

Tryna shine through the sun dancing under this rain

Tell myself keep pushing but the fuel running low

Trying to meet up with the race but available is running low

Got success in my doings but my soul still saying no

Therapy in a bottle I sip and I rap

Tryna number all the pressure

that I carry in my life

Let bro be bro don’t tackle my shine

Momma praying for my heart, but I’m cold to the core

Got dreams on my mind, but my spirit want it more

Success feel empty when your banks ain’t right

So I say my truth pain to the mic

Life don’t respect me I give it what it demands

I don’t flex for the clout, I just speak what’s real

Some hustle for the fame, I just hustle to get heal

From the struggle where the hope barely breathes a breath

But I grind ‘cause I promised to fight to the death

So if I ever fade out, just know I give all I had

From the good to the bad, from the broke to the bag

I was real through it all, even when it hurt very deep

Still a hustler in the dark, where the lost souls fall asleep

I wake up in a war going right in my head

Say a prayer to the God , but got silence at the end

I put pain in my hustle, every step already got a cost

Everybody see the grind but not the life prison I’m tryna brake out

Sometimes i sleep with regrets thinking why all this money ain’t mine

Feeling trapped in a loop i think this pain are on repeat

Tryna drown myself out but it seems im buried too deep

Now I’m rich in my pockets, but I’m poor in my name

Trying so hard but the pains are still the same

I’m a hustler but I’m human can’t you see I’m struggling

Sapa dey for front i don’t even see that coming

All these teeth way I Dey shine gan just make me more silly
