[Chorus]
Running, in this city you can‘t move slow
Nothing, something that I can not live for
Riding, when I see me cuz I got my tears low
Timing, moving silent gonna let my work show
[Verse]
Mama been saying keep praying, I‘m climbing a slippery slope
No matter the progress I make, I end up right back to the floor
Yeah yeah
Keep on moving till I‘m reaching the top
I‘m just tryna seek some more blessings
The L‘s that I took then taught me lessons
Now I‘m older gotta play my role
Be that model I ain't had before
But I‘m not one who you should look up to
I‘m on the stage, don‘t mean I‘m above you
I know how it feels to be down
So if you need me, then just know imma come through
I‘m just tryna give my people hope
In the land of the thieves, we'll be ? dreams
I‘m just tryna let my people know
You‘re nothing lesser than a king or queen
Told my family bout to hit the road
??? had to spin the globe
Back in high school, was a lost soul
Was a no show, now I‘m doing shows
But I miss my brothers who‘re no longer breathing
Would've said goodbye if I knew they was leaving
In a death match with my demons
I gotta live with the reason, yeah yeah
Plotting and scheming til everybody is eating, yeah yeah
Honest earning with my workers
Money go fast when you‘re cheating, yeah yeah
Lord we have come from the trenches???
That is around the deep end???
[Chorus]
Running, in this city you can‘t move slow
Nothing, something that I can not live for
Riding, when I see me cuz I got my tears low
Timing, moving silent gonna let my work show
