Akon
Face a trouble every day
Trying to walk away from a life of sorrow
It´s a struggle every day
Trying not to rob G´s, Still I borrow


[Verse 1:]
I need to take it slow
My heart is growing cold
I´m trying to hide my feelings
From the people that I know
and everywhere I go I´m trying to lay low
Can´t afford to get in no trouble because I´m on parole


I´m trying to live life right
God knows with all my might
But I´m just barely getting by
Cuz money´s way too tight
And I can say this right
The struggle and the fight
It´s weakin´ all the muscles in my body like kryptonite
Making me feel like there is no other way
But the different streets get that dough
Living and praying for a better day...So!


[Chorus: x2]
Face a trouble every day
Trying to walk away from a life of sorrow
It´s a struggle every day
Trying not to rob G´s, Still I borrow


[Verse 2:]
Streets, I ain´t no longer on it
Don´t need feds all upon it
I done left that life alone
Cuz all I did was impress, my homie!
And then my conscience told me
´Careful you tendarone!´
Always complaining after I ain´t never did
She always lonely. So what am I to do
Gotta get money for food, cuz if she starves to death
Then I gotta deal with her attitude
And I in that type of mood cuz I ain´t type of dude
It´s bad enough, I gotta deal with all this I´m going thru
It´s making me feel like there is no other way
But the different streets get that dough
Living and praying for a better day...So!


[Chorus: x4]
Face a trouble every day
Trying to walk away from a life of sorrow
It´s a struggle every day
Trying not to rob G´s, Still I borrow
