C-Mob, KXNG Crooked - Smile 2 lyrics

There's gon' be some stuff you gon' see
It's gonna make it hard to smile

If I'm mean-mugging please, pardon me
Niggas wanna Martin me on the balcony
Niggas wanna Malcolm me
So how can we settle all
Our differences without the beef
I made gold from nothing like it was Alchemy
Now they wanna take my smile from me
I'm proud to be a leader my people depend on
If I ain't keep it a hun'ed like
Spending a Franklin they woulda been gone
I'm married to the game I'm
Out of thе friend-zone

I couldn't imagine stretching my arms
And being a inch away
Now all of my goals are out of
My reach I pick up the scripture, aye
Commence to pray when inspiration
Is rinsed away cause as a child I never
Smiled even on picture day
I changed my frequency I'm vibrating
At a high rate and you could did waiting for
Something good to happen
This is the secrecy, law of attraction
I say good things even when I speak to me
You're feeling down I got a hook
That you could sing with me

Nobody ever said life would be easy
And there's nothing in this world for free
(In this world for free)
And even though we all
Go through the struggle
It don't mean we have to go through misery
I said you gotta smile through the bullshit
You gotta smile through the pain
You gotta smile whether you're going
Through hell or high water
Just be happy you're still in the game
(In the game)
Nobody ever said life would be easy
And there's nothing in this world for free
(In this world for free)
And even though we all
Go through the struggle
It don't mean we have to go through misery
I said you gotta smile through the bullshit
You gotta smile through the pain
You gotta smile whether you're going
Through hell or high water
Just be happy you're still in the game
(In the game)

If you've been done wrong by your next of
Kin or by your best of friends
Never forget that a smile is the best revenge
No matter the mess I'm in, flex and grin
Lets begin when I rank your loyalty I won't
Settle for less than ten
I'm stressed again cause I let
Myself stretch too thin
But, I got the work ethic and
I got the finesse to win
Invested in myself and I can rest up when
My quest for zen is met within
With time left to spend
A specimen overcoming shit
That's quite vexing
All the nights stressing until I
Look for the life lessons
I'm dissecting emotions asking
The right questions
To better myself and head
In a better direction i'm mic recking
My flight's checked in like Delta Air
Continue building yourself, knowledge
Be self aware it felt unfair
No wealth was there and help was rare
It's Hell to bear when you're
Feeling your mental health impaired
I knelt in prayer, ill and insane
Stress it was killing my brain
Shifting it into a villainous frame
Felt like my will had been drained
So sick of feeling the pain
Things that got me dealing with shame
Then I remember I'm real and untamed and
Thankful to be still in the game
Gratefully, I've been through a lot
But it only strengthened me
Making me headstrong
Got my bread long like a bakery pray for me
Some people are wicked and that's
How they can be
Even if they got hate for me my
Smile they'll never take from me

Nobody ever said life would be easy
And there's nothing in this world for free
(In this world for free)
And even though we all
Go through the struggle
It don't mean we have to go through misery
I said you gotta smile through the bullshit
You gotta smile through the pain
You gotta smile whether you're going
Through hell or high water
Just be happy you're still in the game
(In the game)
Nobody ever said life would be easy
And there's nothing in this world for free
(In this world for free)
And even though we all
Go through the struggle
It don't mean we have to go through misery
I said you gotta smile through the bullshit
You gotta smile through the pain
You gotta smile whether you're going
Through hell or high water
Just be happy you're still in the game
(In the game)
