Lyrics Barely Surviving - Struggle Jennings

Shhhhh
Can you hear that

Can you hear the sirens
Little baby crying
Mama stressed out
Cause were barely surviving
Feds outside tryin to kick in the door
Cause daddy been out there
Tryin to get more

Can you hear the sirens
Little baby crying
Mama stressed out
Cause were barely surviving
Feds outside tryin to kick in the door
Cause daddy been out there
Tryin to get more

You hear the birds
Sing chirp chirp chirp
Feds listen now
When I chirp chirp chirp

So I tried to put his face on the shirt
Cause he tried to hurt hurt hurt
Everything that I worked worked for

Like Ashton Kutcher
I just want more
Poverty is something
I will not settle for
So I tried to settle the scores with metaphors
Instead of using 44's

I dont want to go to jail
Like Demi Moore
But I dont understand why they tryin to get me for
But fuck it I'll try
I gotta move on
Good father
Great gangster
Put it on my tombstone

Can you hear the sirens
Little baby crying
Mama stressed out
Cause were barely surviving
Feds outside tryin to kick in the door
Cause daddy been out there
Tryin to get more

Can you hear the sirens
Little baby crying
Mama stressed out
Cause were barely surviving
Feds outside tryin to kick in the door
Cause daddy been out there
Tryin to get more

Can you hear the sirens
Baby mama crying
Her son in the courtroom
Sentenced for surviving
Eighty-Five percent
Cause he was tryin to pay the rent
You can call it justice
But imma call it bullshit
It's what it is

The world is fucked
The oil price is down
But the gas price is up
It doesn't add up
How is that so
Two plus two dont equal six it equals 4
That's why were so broke
We keep our eyes closed
And believe everything that the media shows
Reals at a low
The whole world snitchin
You can starve on these scraps
But I'm gonna stay in the kitchen

Can you hear the sirens
Little baby crying
Mama stressed out
Cause were barely surviving
Feds outside tryin to kick in the door
Cause daddy been out there
Tryin to get more

Can you hear the sirens
Little baby crying
Mama stressed out
Cause were barely surviving
Feds outside tryin to kick in the door
Cause daddy been out there
Tryin to get more

Sittin in the trap
Waitin on a bite
Tryin to make a hundred thousand dollars in a night
The kids like sponges
Seein me hustle
When I grow up
I wanna be like struggle
I wanna grow my hair long
Wanna wear the same chain
Wanna drive the same car
Filled with the wood grain
Everything seems so fine and dandy
See me ridin twenty sixes
Sittin on candy
But they don't see the pain and problems that I have
Pulled over by the vice
Comes with a half a slab
Everything change
Where did daddy go
Mama why we movin in with my grand mama for
Mama stressed out
It's going to her head
Then her son looks up and said I'll go and get the bread
That's how it starts
Poverty will get ya
That's why my family albums filled with penatentry pictures

Can you hear the sirens
Little baby crying
Mama stressed out
Cause were barely surviving
Feds outside tryin to kick in the door
Cause daddy been out there
Tryin to get more

Can you hear the sirens
Little baby crying
Mama stressed out
Cause were barely surviving
Feds outside tryin to kick in the door
Cause daddy been out there
Tryin to get more
No no
