Can't worried 'bout the Joneses, I don't do the shit they doing (uh-huh)
I guess I gotta get my ass up and go to work (work)
Can't make it off the schemes they be selling me at the church (grrr)
But still don't get it wrong, the faith is strong, but still it hurts (hurts)
Gotta use what He gave me to get out and move this merch
Man, I'm just trying to keep the lights on
Huh, might need a 12-pack to get me through the week
And since the repo, well I guess my night's ruined
Got damn, the repo-man done stole all my shit
Ain't that a bitch, but still my

(Hey young world, young world, young world, young world)

Huh, robbed Peter last month but couldn't pay Paul
Even worse, man they done hit me with a layoff
But all I can think about is the process, no day off
Over 10,000 hours, mane I know its gotta pay off (gotta payoff)
So I work through the hurt, trying to keep my mind (Mind)
Keep my nose to the stone of the daily grind (Grind)
Can't deal with the fact of us just getting by
Felt the flashbacks from my mother's cries
Well I'm just trying to keep the lights on
Huh, might need a 12-pack to get me through the week
And since my grandpa passed, its like I kicked into overdrive
That's why my work ethic done been so fuckin' sick
They think I'm sick, I keep my

I was just thinking... what would it take
To move and shake and make a million?
The hamster's running
I'm fully conscious on the building
Characteristics of proper risks, I gotta vision
Crazy enough to jump at the quality of decision
When they ask me what's why, I simply reply

Can't live with the fact of us just getting by
Felt the flashbacks from my mother's cries
Well I'm just trying to... (I'm just trying to)
I'm just trying to... (I'm just trying)
I'm just trying to keep the lights on in a knight's form
Make sure that my son got what he need to keep his life going
I'll fly the kite to keep him outgoing (Outgoing) huh
I gotta teach him everything I know (Everything I know)
Make sure he know which way to go (Which way to go)
So when it comes to that time he reminded of
How his Papa built a legacy amongst the blinded
Huh, just keep ya

You ain't gotta... you ain't gotta understand, nope!
You ain't gotta... you ain't gotta understand it

You ain't gotta... you ain't gotta understand
You ain't gotta... you ain't gotta understand it
