[Chorus]

What you know about that struggle being down & out?

I think I finally got it figured out

Spent too much time worried what they think about

I'm a daddy that's the only thing I care about! Tell Em Dot


[Verse 1]

I'm a felon I'm just lucky that I got a job

I remember I ain't have it man I had to rob

I was sick of being locked down in them prison walls

I ain't even know my daddy, man this song might piss him off

I keep shitting on them man I need some different drawls

They rap about the same thing I got a different cause

Cut from a different cloth, roaches, dirty dishes dog!

All this hating get me off! all the friends that did me wrong. YEAH

I'm just tryna to feed my fam, I ain't tryna be the man

I wish that you would understand, I know this is God's plan

All the shit that I've been through all the things I had to do

Just to hustle up some food! In my city it's a zoo

Doing drugs the thing to do, yeah they love to see you lose

Ima end up on the news, I ain't got no shit to prove

I done did there's all to do, give my credit where it's due!

They keep telling me to move! NAH

I ain't tryna leave my city I want us to win

If I get it then I get it let the fun begin!

I'm just tryna put my family in another crib

Get my mom a fucking benz, college for both of my kids!


[Chorus]

What you know about that struggle being down & out?

I think I finally got it figured out

Spent too much time worried what they think about

I'm a daddy that's the only thing I care about! Tell Em Dot X2


[Verse 2]

I look my devils in the face & I won't let them win

If I didn't hit the pen, I don't think I would've lived

Would've never knew my kids, could've never helped them out

Would've never met my girl she the one who led me out

Got me out the game before I died up in that shit

I was higher than a blimp, all my friends was jumping ship

I was riding with that clip, couple sanctions & I'm going back

Welcome to my story this is how I got my life on track!

Welcome Back, Welcome Back, Yeah They Telling Me..Welcome Back

Welcome Back, Welcome Back, Yeah They Telling Me..Welcome Back


[Chorus]

What you know about that struggle being down & out?

I think I finally got it figured out

Spent too much time worried what they think about

I'm a daddy that's the only thing I care about! Tell Em Dot X2
