K-Rino, Klondike Kat - The More I Try lyrics

Yeah this for everybody who feel like
Every time they take a step forward
They get knocked two back
You know what I'm saying?
You ain't by yourself
It ain't no need to feel sorry for yourself
Just step your game up ya feel me?

My blessings in the world come
From only three letters
I analyze life through a blind
Man's eyes to see better
I'm thanking for hard times and
Every problem I gained
'Cause struggle is ordained and one of
Life's best lessons is pain
The decisions I made
I made 'em with no shame in my game
Took the bad with the good just like
A man that never place blame
A mind stay twisted


Can't even tell the crooked from straight
We give up on love but never
Seem to run out of hate
Seems like you gotta almost die before
You learn how to live
One of the biggest things a man
Can do is learn to forgive
We didn't have much but grateful
Every night I pray knew we was poor
But we was happy just to go out and play
And these fools thinking they understand
The problems we have
Raised in the hood learning to mean
Mug before I could laugh
If it's about money and happiness
I'm down to pursue it
And don't be talking about you feel me
If you ain't never been through it

Life's so full of deception and lies
Look deeply and see the pain in my eyes
Why do I fall when I'm supposed to rise
The more I try?

I see this world is on it's
Last leg like nobody cares
Can't even pray to God
The Feds tapping my prayers
How can I strive to show love
When I'm surrounded by hate?
Why even bother choosing friends when
They so shallow and fake
How come your main mission in life
Is to take me fast?
Because if they ain't after your broad
Then they after your cash
Busters befriend me but they
Plot for my wealth
Could it be that they see more in
Me then they see in they self?
I been rich been poor been both places before
Hit the pen now I know
Just what patience is for
Got me pacing the floor now
My life is so rough
And if I look back on past
I could have avoided this stuff
How can you preach to me my baby need shoes
My baby is in schools
And I can find no positives
Playing by y'all rules
Klondike Kat done seen some dark days
So I just can't front
Man, your pace will get you
25 to avoid 6 months

Life's so full of deception and lies
Look deeply and see the pain in my eyes
Why do I fall when I'm supposed to rise
The more I try?

Born in an aggravated mood
Swallowing game like food
They say I'm ghetto but I take
That as a compliment dude
It ain't take long for the hood to
Put some hair on my balls
Never did dirt because I feared my
Mama more than the Laws
Maybe we'll stop tryna take from
Somebody and give more
They got us out here thinking it
Ain't nothing to live for
You got your thing I got mine
And when it rains it pours
I can't look down on you cause my
Sin ain't no better than yours
And the friendship between two
Partners really ain't strong
And we can't tell each other 'bout
Ourself when we in the wrong
Is you a G or a faker
That will sellout your brothers?
Do you do good because it's right
Or to be noticed by others?
See I understand why people shoot
Slugs and do drugs
If you was in the conditions we
Was you'd do it too, cuz
That why we dying over nonsense
Laid out like a pallet
If you gon' die or kill just make
Sure that the reason is valid
We know what pain is and
What these devils tryna do
It's hard to listen to your mama
When she higher than you
Can't show no weakness in this world
Even the females is hard
Out here putting your faith in man
Like you ought to do God for sure

Life's so full of deception and lies
Look deeply and see the pain in my eyes
Why do I fall when I'm supposed to rise
The more I try?
