Текст песни Raised to Fail - Triune

How can I win
I know that this ain't it
My haters all around me
They pile up at the neck
The system against me
It's made to box me in
But I know I'm so different
Yea they broke the mold with me
Even tho I'm raised to fail
I was born to be better
They say life is what you make it
They can't hold me down forever

I was told when I was growing up i'd never be shit
I was told if I tried I would take an L
So often told that my life would never mean shit
The definition of being raised to fail
Daddy loved the lakers
Daddy loved the bottle
Daddy loved the ladies
With no regard for my mama
Daddy worked hard did any shift he was given
But when it came to the extras that nigga was always missing
Young men need examples, guidance, and tough love
You was 1 out of 3 but I needed all thee above
Had that been the case I would've shed many mistakes
Shown patience with some decisions and learned to hit the breaks
But nah
I was taught that aggression was the answer
And pride cures pain while manifesting to cancer
Vices don't avoid em, even if they destroy ya
When you die from it at least you can say that you enjoyed it

How can I win
I know that this ain't it
My haters all around me
They pile up at the neck
The system against me
It's made to box me in
But I know I'm so different
Yea they broke the mold with me
Even tho I'm raised to fail
I was born to be better
They say life is what you make it
They can't hold me down forever

I was told when I was growing up i'd never be shit
I was told if I tried I would take an L
So often told that my life would never mean shit
The definition of being raised to fail
Momma loved fashion
Momma loved nicotine
Momma loved her image with no regard for her seeds
Momma worked hard was education and gifted but when it came to her son
That nigga was always missing
Young men need compassion, protection, and wise words
You was none out of three and I needed more than a curve
Had that been my plight would've chosen a better wife
Shown wisdom in some approaches and learned to chase my light
But nah I was taught that perception is your wealth
And nothing in this world is more important than self
Problems you deflect em
Life's issues you neglect em
To the point the next time that you'll see mom will be in heaven

How can I win
I know that this ain't it
My haters all around me
They pile up at the neck
The system against me
It's made to box me in
But I know I'm so different
Yea they broke the mold with me
Even tho I'm raised to fail
I was born to be better
They say life is what you make it
They can't hold me down forever
