Tryna Get By

Hmmm, yeah

Mhm

We take the good, we take the bad

It's not about what we had

We just tryna get by

We stay out of trouble

All we wanna do to get a little bit better

We take the joy, we take the pain

It's not about what you gain

We just tryna by

We just tryna by

Oh, this is the story of my life

Tryna keep the drama and the bullshit away

I stay so busy on my grind

I don't they even pay attention to the things that they say

A nigga never been as broke as me, I like that

Now we're makin' this money, gotta get it while I can

When I was young I had two pair of Lees (besides that)

The pin stripes and the gray, the one I wore on Mondays and Wednesdays

While niggas flirt I'm sewing tigers on my shirts, and alligators

You want to see the inside, I see you later

Here comes the drama, oh

That's that nigga with the fake, bloaw!

Why you punch me in my face? Stay in your place

Play your position, here come my intuition

Go in this nigga pocket, rob him while his friends watchin'

His crew's your crew or they might be next

We take the good, we take the bad

It's not about what we had (what we had)

We just tryna get by

We stay out of trouble

All we wanna do to get a little bit better (got to get little bit better)

We take the joy, we take the pain

It's not about what you gain (ain't about what we gain)

We just tryna by

We just tryna by (just tryna get by, yeah)

Look at they man eye, big man, they never try

So we rolled with them, stole with them

I mean loyalty, niggas bought me milks at lunch

The milks was chocolate, the cookies, butter crunch

Pass the blunt

No matter how I did it, I had to stay winnin'

If it was 'bout the paper, I was with it (yeah)

I was a shame, my crew was lame

I had enough heart for most of them

Long as I got stuff from most of them

It's on, even when I was wrong I got my point across

They depicted me the boss, of course

My orange box-cutter make the world go round

Plus I'm fuckin' bitches, ain't my homegirls now

Start stackin', dabbled in crack, gun packin'

Nickname Medina make the seniors tote my niñas

From gym class to English pass off a global

The only nigga with a mobile, can't you see like Total

We take the good, we take the bad

It's not about what we had

We just tryna get by

We stay out of trouble

All we wanna do to get a little bit better (tryna get little bit better, better, better, yeah)

We take the joy, we take the pain

It's not about what you gain

We just tryna by

We just tryna by (I said we got to do what it takes to get by, yeah)

We take the good, we take the bad (we take the bad)

It's not about what we had (it's not about what we had)

We just tryna get by

We stay out of trouble

All we wanna do to get a little bit better (get a little bit better)

We take the joy, we take the pain

It's not about what you gain

We just tryna by

We just tryna by

We just tryin', tryin', yeah

It's not about what we had

Sky is the limit and you know that you keep on

Just keep on pressin' up (takin' the good and bad)

Sky is the limit and you know that you can have

What you want, be what you want

Huh
