K-Rino, B.A.N.G. (RAP) - Ups and Downs lyrics

"my share of life's ups and downs"
"my share" "my share" "my share" "my share"
"my share of life's ups and downs"
"my share" "my share" "my share" "my share"
"my share of life's ups and downs"
"my share" "my share" "my share" "my share"

Yeah, this goes out to the hood
Every hood in every city i love the hood
Without the hood, who would I be?

I was raised in the dead end
The Park is my hood
Esperanza, King’s Gate, Orleans, Summer Wood
Made mistakes, had breaks, some bad
Some good
And I can think of plenty things that
I would change if I could born broke
Came up out the gates stressing a lot
It be so bad it’s hard to
Focus on the blessing ya got
Blind leading the blind
Reason I’m deceiving the mind
Wish I could take the best years of
My life and freeze ‘em in time
Friends faking, not there for I remain so low
We dying so fast I don’t hardly
Feel the pain no more
And when it’s your turn
Don’t fear ‘cause we all must go
Just live your life to the fullest and
Leave it all on the floor i done had

"my share of life's ups and downs"
"my share" "my share" "my share" "my share"
"my share of life's ups and downs"
"my share" "my share" "my share" "my share"

You got a dead partner
Pour some on the cut for your G
If you could bring him back
And ask one question, what would it be?
Be careful how you treat your kids
‘cause the future is theirs
Might be the answer to your
Prayers or your worst nightmares
Respect mama and daddy
Matters what they've done
Make peace with them who gave you life
Your blessing'll come
Boys plexing over north, south, west and east
And our ancestors that died can’t
Even rest in peace
It’s like they gave their life for
Nothing ‘cause we throwed it away
Just to kill each other
Talk down and get blowed everyday
In the hood, roaching and poor hustling
Trying to bleed
And when you’re gone from this world
What you gon’ leave to your seed? I done had
"my share of life's ups and downs"
"my share" "my share" "my share" "my share"
"my share of life's ups and downs"
"my share" "my share" "my share" "my share"

What’s up, boy? What’s the deal, K? Man
When you get home?
I’ve been back about two months now
Just tryna hold on i feel that
What you doin’ with yourself these days?
Tryna cuff up on some loot but
I done ran out of ways
So what’s your plan, what you gon’ do, man?
It ain’t no tellin’
Been looking for jobs but ain’t
No love for an ex-felon
Yeah that’s real, dude
The system got the black man stressing
But as long as you got your health
And your right mind it’s a blessing
But it’s depressing, I’m tripping, K, man
I tell ya
From the minute I hit the streets they
Had me set up for failure i’m on parole
Unemployed and arguing with my girl
Being back in jail seems easier
Than being in the world
I’m ‘bout to jump back in the game
That’s what they want you to do
And don’t you got a son, dog yeah
He just turned 2
Don’t give up, that child needs his daddy
Yeah that’s true
Wish I could put you on your
Feet but man I’m struggling too because of

"my share of life's ups and downs"
"my share" "my share" "my share" "my share"
"my share of life's ups and downs"
"my share" "my share" "my share" "my share"

Now we all got pain that we try to hide
But we wanna keep it by the side
This is dedicated to the ones that died
Although you didn’t make it
Lord knows you tried
I still got love even though you’re gone
Still in the game and I know it’s wrong
Time goes on, it’ll be awhile
I still see you and I see your child
I know somebody feel my pain
Try to keep me down but still I can
Got another chance to reveal my game
Now the only question is, will I change?
