I tried to be a good man
But time just keeps on proving me wrong
I'm tired of strugglin' day to day
I won't work no more, that life don't pay
I tried to be a good man
But time just keeps on proving me wrong
I'm tired of strugglin' day to day
I won't work no more, that life don't pay
It's the 5th when they pick up the rent
Like a pit when I pick up they scent
Know they just want their money
But I'm actin' funny cuz truth is that been 'ready spent
Either your gas is on E
You struggle to eat or they puttin' you out on the street
Got me pumpin' my brakes when I hear that police
I tried to be a good man
But time just keeps on proving me wrong
I'm tired of strugglin' day to day
I won't work no more, that life don't pay
I tried to be a good man
But time just keeps on proving me wrong
I'm tired of strugglin' day to day
I won't work no more, that life don't pay
They judging your skin and clothes that you wear
From the moment you walk in that door
If you cannot buy it and your baby's crying
Believe that you're breaking the law
So you're doing what's right
Despite what you're doing is wrong
So just hold up your head
'Cuz I need you to know that your strong
I tried to be a good man
But time just keeps on proving me wrong
I'm tired of strugglin' day to day
I won't work no more, that life don't pay
I tried to be a good man
But time just keeps on proving me wrong
I'm tired of strugglin' day to day
I won't work no more, that life don't pay
