Tryin` To Survive Lyrics

Tryin` To Survive lyrics

(Ronnie Spencer)



Ooooooh, yeeeeeeeah



Yeeeeah-ay, ooooh yeah







[Hook: Isis Re]



I don't know, how I can survive



In these streets, hard to be me



I can surviiiive







[Ronnie Spencer]



And I don't know how long, I can survive



Living in these streets



Puffing on these sweets, keeps me alive



And I don't know how long, I can hold on



When I look into the sky, see the birds fly



Keeps me holding on



And I don't know what to do



This life is taking me, through my up's and down's



And I can't get off this ride, holding on so tight



I just close my eyes (close my eyes)







[Hook: Isis Re]







[Z-Ro]



I had to keep from going under, like Stevie I wonder thinking hard



Running out of places to lay my head, got me drinking hard



Born struggling, a fellow achieved his bubbling



The fact that I can't get no job, don't do nothing but rub it in



I'm running out of time, and I'm sick of slanging nickels and dimes



Ducking the police daily, is affecting my grind



Losing my mind behind the wrong woman, that say she loves me



Long as I'm dropping on the rent, everything is lovely



So many features in songs, tell me why I ain't got no home



Penitentiary grown cause I roam, with a pocket full of stones



Somebody tell me, will I make it to the cream of the crop



Forever stressed, so I be screaming a lot



Dog at twenty years old, I use to know that I'd be reaching 25



Now 24 and still no do', my job is struggle and strive



I keep my heat up under my seat, when I creep



Cause I just met Mr. Sweets, but now he under my feet



Man it's a cold cold world, that we living in



Killas'll take your life, and it ain't gotta be about no divid-ends



Forgive me for my sins, I'm just trying to make it



Trying to keep my pistol from my head, cause I just can't take it



Jesus, I'm trying to survive







[Ronnie Spencer]



And I don't know what to do



This life is taking me, through my up's and down's



And I can't get off this ride, holding on so tight



I just close my eyes (close my eyes)







[Hook: Isis Re - 2x]
