How Will I Make It (исполнитель: Big L)
Lyrics: Aiyo some people was born in heaven with a silver spoon in they mouth And had everything taken to them on a silver platter And never had to work hard for nothing Then there are some people who was born in the opposite world, of those was born heaven, which is called [bad word] And had to work hard for everything they got and never had nothing taken to them and never will [Verse One] I'm only at the age of ten and life already seems to me like was heading to a dead end Cause my mom was smoking mad crack my pops went out for a fast snack and never brought his [bad word] back Nobody knows how I feel it's quite ill that I have to steal to fill my stomach with a nice meal Too ashamed to walk the streets wearing the same cheap sneaks and dirty outfit for weeks Even my holidays got damaged Cause on christmas I aksed Santa for a father and a hot sandwich I just can't take it and everyday I aks myself How will I make it? [bad word] It seems like my life been cursed ever since I was a child And how will I make it? I won't, that's how I walk around with a frown I got no reason to smile And how will I make it? I won't, that's how Aiyo times is rough I had to grow up foul And how will I make it? I won't, that's how I always knew that I'll end up doing time on a L And how will I make it? I won't, that's how [Verse Two] Five years past by, now I'm on the age of fifteen no more fun and games, it's time to get cream cause I'm about to burst, my life was cursed I went to church prayed everyday but everything still got worse Soon I ran in to a couple of guns started stalking the streets late robbing suckers for funds Now everyday I creep with the heat ain't nothing sweet I rob for me, if I don't steal I don't eat Then I lost control and started going too far Robbed this brother named Umar and got snatched by the blue car Where I grew up it was a living [bad word] then I started to realise I'm better off in a prison cell Now I can sleep, now I can eat Can't hit skinz but I wasn't hitting skinz while I was in the streets Aiyo I just can't take it and everyday I aks myself How will I make it? [bad word] [Verse Three] Doing time was full of stress all the fightings and stabbings and men finding men y One tried to test me didn't find it humerous beat him with a pillowcase skilled with cans of tuna fish My time came to a cease I'm back on the streets again I hope I won't get snatched by the beast again But it's getting crazy hectic cause I'm broke and up naked in cagitive jar cause of my jail record Before you know I was robbing them Saint Ducks even started robbing homeless folks for their change cups My whole life was deserted either I'ma go back to jail or get murdered but do I deserve it All I try to do was live the one life that I got but it seems that I can't get a fair shot I just can't take it and everyday I aks myself How will I make it? [bad word] Word up man it's real rough out here man In the ghetto all that remains for us is wait for a better tomorrow But it gets no better it's only getting worse Word up
