Just Another Day - Mark Battles, King Kap, Locksmith

This ain’t no way to live

No, food in the fridge man we was just kids you know

I said it’s just another day

And quit telling us she owe that money

Coming the slow way ain’t nowhere to go

You know

I said it’s just another day

I said it’s just another

It’s just another

It’s just another

It’s just a

I said it’s just another day

This love is hard my

Hard to understand that failure is a part of trying

See I like to keep a smile through the darkest time

I never knew me until now but I make me proud

My mama wow love that lady smile

She said they might hurt you now but they won’t break you down

What’s pain without lessons

Grew up in the desert so I made it my profession

Focused on my own never hated on a next one

Read between the lines like way before I checked them

These fools stretching the truth i’m really riding with proof

I’m talking crackers and juice for dinner

My nigga Lennard got jacked for his boots

Came back with a strap i’ll get em back in a few

Confused life with money that’s stacked to the roof

If the country falls apart then what happens to you

This ain’t follow the leader it’s follow the eagle

Not the bullshit that they constantly feeding you on

I don’t need to find a reason it’s Pensylvania clear

I just gotta hope it

This ain’t no way to live

No, food in the fridge man we was just kids you know

I said it’s just another day

And quit telling us she owe that money

Coming the slow way ain’t nowhere to go

You know

I said it’s just another day

I said it’s just another

It’s just another

It’s just another

It’s just a

I said it’s just another day

They want me to stop they want me to quit

They want me to falter and fail

They want me to rap they want me to smile

They want me to alter myself

They want me to turn the cheek

But I turn to to a prophet

What’s worse a empty soul

Or a empty hole in your pocket

They profiting from your delusion

So what are you losing

Your money your self esteem the minute you chose becomes confusion

So how do you fuse it without you sacrificing either

My first time in the booth I was so nervous and eager

Now i’m feeding off the frivolous shit they tricking us

Reminiscing we used to switch tags so inconspicuous

Walking in the mall for work taking no losses

The dressing room in Macy’s was like ma personal office

Man it’s just another day so another struggle is brewing

Pursuing something that’s deeper than what you see when you viewing it

in the trumpet trunk of the car

If I don’t reach it today then tomorrow I will

I said it’s just another day

This ain’t no way to live

No, food in the fridge man we was just kids you know

I said it’s just another day

And quit telling us she owe that money

Coming the slow way ain’t nowhere to go

You know

I said it’s just another day

I said it’s just another

It’s just another

It’s just another

It’s just a

I said it’s just another day

Like why the hell you asking for

I’m tired of the back and forth

Mellow tore my ankle while i’m fitting through the microphone

Better off when i’m alone

Sorry that i’m in my zone

Quiet for attention lately

Rather be a human being yet I gotta set the tone

Wonder why these mamas crying all these young people dying

Waiting for my time to come all I know is that i’m trying

What’s the thing to do

Scratch off keep away from feuds

Mama say a prayer cause we tryna make a living

Screaming out the world could die any minute

Say a prayer for your boy it’s all good intentions

Now it''s more than just twitter where ma name’s mentioned

I’m not into wishing nor school or tuition

Every line I say real like we going wishing

Young black male living will I fall victim

I’m just telling the truth but to you

This ain’t no way to live

No, food in the fridge man we was just kids you know

I said it’s just another day

And quit telling us she owe that money

Coming the slow way ain’t nowhere to go

You know

I said it’s just another day

I said it’s just another

It’s just another

It’s just another

It’s just a

I said it’s just another day
