Philly Titan - Stuck in My Ways

I'm stuck in my ways I try to change everyday but somethings holding me back
Keeping the good life away
I need to pray
Before it's too late I need to make a decision before I shut down and break
I can't take it no more living like this
Breaking promises to my family and leaving them pissed
I thought I knew everything but there was something I missed
I can't keep living like this
I can't keep living like this

So I start on a mission to find where exactly I left my mind because I'm lost in time
Thinking a life of crime is gunna get me to the top but obviously the cops got me dealing with a lot
I need to plot I need to plan I need to make a maneuver
Before my whole life is thrown in a pot of menuer
Stay going to school and get an education
Instead of hustling that with at the damn gas station
Tell me why I'm still waiting sitting around here
Thinking my mind but my thoughts are unclear
Everything's coming down on me all at one time

But when shit hits the fan that's how it happens sometimes
Just relax and take a deep breathe in trying to figure out what's next
In my life cuz I be stressed at times when I need checks
So I can pay my bills now I really know how it feels to be broke and i get chills
Doctor give me a pill that'll make my mind stronger
Cuz contemplated about problems got me sick and I wonder
Will I ever get better is like a never ending letter
About the troubles I go through man fuck this cold weather
I'm ready to step out into the sun and hear the lord
I've been given plenty of chances but this time I can't a afford to fuck up
Cuz I done ran my luck up and if I do it again we'll shit

I'm stuck in my ways I try to change everyday but somethings holding me back
Keeping the good life away
I need to pray
Before it's too late I need to make a decision before I shut down and break
I can't take it no more living like this
Breaking promises to my family and leaving them pissed
I thought I knew everything but there was something I missed
I can't keep living like this
I can't keep living like this

I'm down on my knees begging you please lord can you help me please
I've been going through some things going through some things
And I just don't know if I can take this pain
I need to change my ways and live life right
I need to change my ways and stay living like christ
Because I gotta live right I can't be living wrong for the rest of my life
Cuz I done been down that road before taking everything for granted now I'm stuck to the floor
Can't go no where cuz I ain't got no car and I lost all my money to the mother fucking laws
Pushed up on the wall Paul up my back but this time I Ain't giving them a reason to come back
I'm starting to come back to my senses living life to hurt other people is really senseless
I wish that in an instant I could just turn my life around but it takes patience and hard work
Starting up from the ground hard enough of it sounds I know I can make it through
Just keep doing what I do and stay true
It's all up to you showed through life or just coast
It's all up to you keep it real or just boast
Because I gotta stay close to the people that I love most I love you most
