[Intro: mgk]

Yeah

[Chorus: mgk & Sonyaé Elise]

I'm facing problems every day

I can't solve 'em every day

They want the truth every day

I'm being honest every day

I wake up every day

Smoke this blunt every day

Go to work every day

To make a buck every day

[Post-Chorus: mgk & Sonyaé Elise]

This one for the boy who grew up

Trying to feed his family every day (Every day)

Every day (Every day), okay

This one for the girl who feeling lost

Because she trying to find a way (Find a way)

Find a way (Find a way), okay


[Verse 1: mgk]

This verse is for my people on the grind

Going to sleep at 2, clocking in at 9

Trying to go to school, that's why you at the job

Ask me what to do when you're reaching for the stars, jump

Everybody scared of a little change

Thats why I'm always looking out for the little things

You should never be ashamed of a little fame

Even Bill Gates back then had a little name

I'm just saying

Y'all know what it's like when them lights go off in the condo

Need a break from the bullshit pronto

Spend your last check on a trip to Chicago

And see your favorite band on the stage again

In your favorite shirt that you made for them

They play the song and you sang with them

Because music heals the soul

And that moment's there, so take it in

Before you're back in that place again

In the uniform that you hate again

Man, this freedom for the world

[Chorus: mgk & Sonyaé Elise]

I'm facing problems every day

I can't solve 'em every day

They want the truth every day

I'm being honest every day

I wake up every day

Smoke this blunt every day

Go to work every day

To make a buck every day

[Post-Chorus: mgk & Sonyaé Elise]

This one for the boy who grew up

Trying to feed his family every day (Every day)

Every day (Every day), okay

This one for the girl who feeling lost

Because she trying to find a way (Find a way)

Find a way (Find a way)


[Verse 2: mgk]

I can't afford to go to jail (I can't afford to go to jail)

Moms putting they houses up for bail (Moms putting they houses up for bail)

Court stressed me out (Me out), hm

Thinking I need a better route (Thinking I need a better route)

But all these hoes laugh when I'm ashy

And them boys rob if I'm flashy

And them older folks see my tattoos in their offices and low class me

Man, I don't know what I'm supposed to do

My family is not the Huxtables

I'm just trying to keep my life together

Without breaking all the rules

So I say like five prayers every day

Until my sins wear away

Let that smoke in, meditate

And just chill

Thinking 'bout better days

No mo' late night, belly aches

Use this food for thought every day

So I will

[Pre-Chorus: mgk & Sonyaé Elise]

This one for the boy who grew up

Trying to feed his family every day (Every day)

Every day (Every day), okay

This one for the girl who feeling lost

Because she trying to find a way (Find a way)

Find a way (Find a way), ayy

[Chorus: mgk & Sonyaé Elise]

I'm facing problems every day

I can't solve 'em every day

They want the truth every day

I'm being honest every day

I wake up every day

Smoke this blunt every day

Go to work every day

To make a buck every day


[Outro: Casie Baker]
