Derrick Trotman - No Matter lyrics

[Verse 1: Prime] I'm trapped in the mind state getting fly like magic rugs Doing and selling d** and praising the thugs I was programmed this way so it ain't my fault Too late to turn back I might change an a**ault A whole lot to get into with little to do Hit girls right the first time so it's deja vu Payed the price my whole life, my attitude's a receipt Easily learning life ills that are so hard to teach When I was crazy young I had tons of fun Nowadays life's a b**h or a son of one Maybe to get this money I just really don't have the knack Maybe I'm on borrowed time that I can't pay back Or maybe I'm caught up in some Elm Street dream And to get the hell out I must wake up by any means But how can a war be won, if no one had a fort Drinking flammable solution, returning to this thought [Hook:] No matter how loud I pray, God don't hear a sound That's why I point my joint to the sky and let off a round Cause can't no other man Feel this black man's pain except another With no dough, going insane [Repeat X1] [Verse 2: Prime] Every man has two lives, so there's two stories But both of mine are in between right and wrong like purgatory I express a lot of heart when I write About these stressful days and these nights cold like ice It's just like bad dice, you press your luck and you roll With efforts to make cash and now you in a deeper hole Oh no you wake up Cops all around and now you in some hand cuffs You need some bail money but your fam wanna front You think to yourself where your plan slipped up That's when your girl says she missed the time of the month That's when you feel funny and strange in your gut It's just that sh** that make a n***a grab a clip and just all out flip My rap flows real f** flavor, I kick real life in your ear I'm god sent Drinking strong Brandy, just staying bent [Hook] [Verse 3: Prime] Sometimes I want it all, but I know it can't happen So I buy pens to support this rap habit You silly rabbit, see tricks are for kids I'm not trying to do bids and get fish like squids I'm on some power moves, against the powers that be I'm in another realm, against the powers that be Can you dig it? If you do grab that sh**, twist that sh** and swig it And taste the truth And feel the proof That's coming live through your speaker My thoughts are deeper, on the last page like a beeper Life is like an erection and some a** It feels real good, but it don't last So take a pull and pa**, cause getting by ain't a game In these last Babylonian days Drinking flammable solution with a painful thought Drinking flammable solution with this thought [Hook] Word, it's like it's useless nowadays It's too stressful, damn If you ain't got no dough, you ain't solidifying a damn thing Word, it's like that So get that money, get that money
