I'm Gon Make It - Skillz

Yeah

Uh, uh, yeah

Yeah, let’s go, uh

Woo!

Uh, yeah

Uh, listen, (show us what the deal), uh, come on

Big Dog cut my mic up (turn it up!)

Mike and J cut the lights up (come on)

I’m a raise the heights up

Spit somethin tonight that’s gonna lessen my life up

Boy from the hood, your welcome to sit with 'em

I ain’t run from the roaches, I made friends with 'em (uh)

My drama, my momma noddin in the kitchen nigga (uh)

And it ain’t cause she tired

Got it make it through the fire or get carried out

Outside, it’s a new set of shit to worry 'bout

Damn, life ain’t playin (uh uh)

And I know it’s a God, but I don’t feel like I’m prayin

'Round here (woo!), it’s like a job to live (come on)

My homey just went home and I ain’t talkin about his crib (uh)

If this is what it is (uh), this what they call life (uh)

You might get your mind left (uh, come on), if you don’t get your mind right

(uh, uh, OH!)

Tryin hard, everyday, strugglin to survive

To stay alive (alive), somehow, someway

I’m gon' make that bread

I’m gon' make it

I done made my mind up

I’m gon' make it

I’m a keep my head up

I’m gon' make it

Say it again

I’m gon' make it

Say it again

Yeah, uh, now I done …

Been broke, been poor

No bread, no eggs, I done been next door (next door, uh)

Next meal I’ve done been unsure

We call 'em pallets back then, I done been on that floor

I done (uh), seen the good get killed

Y’all drove to the mall, we walked to Goodwill (hey!)

Tryin to get some hand me downs

Wash it twice and wear it, understand me now

And listen, just because I live like this

That don’t mean that I want to raise my kids like this (like this, nope)

Roof leakin, water drippin on my sis

George Bush, he ain’t never live like this (this)

Uncle Sam (fuck him!), he don’t want to see us win

They call 'em projects, cause that’s what they are to them

If you down and out, don’t go that route

It’s the hood, but you supposed to want to make it out

— 2X — w/ ad libs

See the summers get hot and the winters get cold

And the house need heat, momma open that stove

Every other day, got to wear the same clothes

I don’t want to be here, but where else can I go?
