lyrics

Yeah

These days, I be uneasy
NWA, thought it was easy
I just wanted the fame and the money
And some respect on my name, but I'm not greedy
Yeah. Been stuck in a way & the love's cheapening
Cause some of them say that they wanna' see me
Go up into space and be succeeding
But, they ain't bumping my CD
I won't 'cause a ruckus, I'm leaving
This shit isn't fun when you're needing
A couple bucks and it repeats
High difficulty with feeding my family.
Food-stamps can be a bit tough to completely
Fill everyone's stomach. It seems bleak
How do you expect me to be the best I can be
When a stream's worth less than a penny
I'm so stressed that my head keeps
Hurting
I'm so tempted to get me a weapon, then enter and tell this clerk
Empty the register
Sorry to press you, sir – but, I'm fed up working
And not earning what I'm meant to
Worst thing is, I don't want to do this to you
I'm almost thirty, upset that this music ain't lucrative
And now I'm losing my cool
Just put everything in the bag
And I promise you I won't shoot
You prolly got your own wife and kids at home
So, don't fight or move. I'm no goon
Just heartbroken and Broke. Feelin' so hopeless, I don't
Really gotta' do this to you
So I guess that I won't and I'll go

Maybe I have failed
Only time will tell
I am not so well
I dream in gray
Praying that I see the day
Colorblind
Colorblind
Colorblind
