Cyssero - Rocky Roads lyrics

rate me

I was born in the ghetto in the projects

And just like that ghetto I, I tried my best

It’s been hard living

It’s been a long road and this road is rocky

Filled with real blocks man, still couldn’t stop me

Real shit, this a fact, where I’m from it’s two choices

Fight to the end of every round and kiss the mat

I’m trying living front, lame nigger give it back

What some would call eating, we consider just a snack

It’s been a long long road and I seen it all

On a highway of life should’ve seen it y’all

Life is see-saw, up and down like 9-5 traffic

Hoping not to see a detour

Coming up, life ain’t shown much, I wanna see more

All I seen was death, money, drugs, sex

Mama hurt felt like a hex stressed

Lost friends to the jail, fought like the next

Imma blow eventually, for years been on the bubble

I had to learn there is no success without struggle nigger

Started out walking, but now I’m running

Real nigger shit, started out walking

But now I’m running at top speed, on my own two like I’m supposed to

This is inspiration music that we wrote to

And get high, I just keep it real cause I know to

We all on the road of life, but we on different paths

From the school of heart, I never missed a class

Luckily they ain’t seen a bit for the shit I did

Mama kept me in a praise, kept the Bible by the bed

True, solemnly swear on the Bible, it’s been a rocky road

And I’ve been driving on cobble stones, now I’m in the fast lane

The road’s a little smoother, fly little nigger

Might just take a number 2 on ya

And after this Imma thank God for the pain

Cause without it I wouldn’t appreciate happiness

Know when Imma blow, for years been on a bubble

I had to learn these is no success without struggle

Started out walking, but now I’m running

Home, home, home, home

Struggle lead to success, struggle just don’t get struggle

Keep struggling and you’ll just get there
