Some of us may call it the beautiful struggle
Others refer to it as a lifetime of trouble
Some of us say we do it to survive
But in reality many of us do it to keep our name alive
To gain a reputation
A supposed respect with the direct connections
To feel like a big shot
Yea, Mr. Big Shot
Calling the shots
Rolling in the 5% tint
Laid back in the all black Maybach
Rims out and dropped
This isn’t what life’s all about
This isn’t your only way out
Some of us are all about the paper paper
We’re even willing to harm our own neighbor
And are we really trying for our own brother’s blood to spill
At the cost of a few mere $100 bills
When in the Ten Commandments it says Thou Shall Not Kill
It’s this evil philosophy
Convoluted mentality
One that has corrupted our God-given destiny
Do you really think that you can enter into heaven
Strapped up, ready to fight with your AK- 47
M-16 and semi- automatics
No, our mentality is in dire need of change
Drastically and let me quote something biblically
A man can overcome obstacles like poverty
And focus his energy on becoming wealthy
But as times grows on he can be replaced
So going after only fame and power is like going on an endless chase
All these youths want to be pimps and gangstas
Wealth and fames are the only thing they’re after
And it so unsettling
It’s like hot water boiling in the kettle
In the kitchen, unattended
And no one’s even paying attention
Word goes out to my fellow youths
To all the wannabe gangstas, macks, and yes the divas too
It may seem now like it’s all fun and games
And though we do them to earn ourselves a name
You must always remember that when that cold steels connects
and becomes one with your body
And you lay there lifeless, without a warning from nobody
When you realize that you’ve been killed and you’ve crossed the
line between life and death
And you’re lying there 6 ft in depth
Below the sediments
And the sentiments go out to the family of the maimed
That unmatched name that you hustled so hard for
So easily forgotten once closed is the casket door
Forgotten name under the rubble
A lifetime of pain and a lifetime of trouble
The beautiful struggle
The Hustle...
