Zayfromthebay - Lord Knows

Lord knows, I'm doing all that I can
World on my shoulders but I'm just one man
Lord knows, family struggling to pay their bills
This ain't just a rap this shit is real
Lord knows, this world can be so cold
Love this music shit but I won't sell my soul
Lord knows, Lord knows, Lord knows
Lord knows, Lord knows, Lord knows
Lord knows, I'm doing all that I can
World on my shoulders but I'm just one man
Lord knows, family struggling to pay their bills
This ain't just a rap this shit is real

Lord knows I went from wearing hand me downs clothes
Used to hear a ton of boos at my first show
Now I leave the audiences froze
No ballerina but I'm always on my toes
I suppose this is the life that I chose
Dreams of playing pro
Wanted to ball like Derick Rose
Was cut from the team
Mayne they killed my fucking dreams
And lowered my self esteem
Kinda of hard when you are looking from the sidelines
Just know life doesn't come with guidelines
Crying inside but I'd say I'm doing fine
Asking God for a sign
Praying my stars will align

Lord knows, I'm doing all that I can
World on my shoulders but I'm just one man
Lord knows, family struggling to pay their bills
This ain't just a rap this shit is real
Lord knows, this world can be so cold
Love this music shit but I won't sell my soul
Lord knows, Lord knows, Lord knows
Lord knows, Lord knows, Lord knows
Lord knows, I'm doing all that I can
World on my shoulders but I'm just one man
Lord knows, family struggling to pay their bills
This ain't just a rap this shit is real

Mama called me and I could only listen
Tried to vision myself in that position
Can you hear my pain and see my ambitions
Rough conditions
Has me hoping and wishing
Pray that I make it as a musician
Probably not cause I speak fact and not fiction
Going nowhere fast
Car without a transmission
Looking at the Bible and I wonder if He listens
If so, why am I stranded in this position
Blank pages and tears fill up my composition
That's a given, struggling while living
Say life is easy mayne what a contradiction

Lord knows, I'm doing all that I can
World on my shoulders but I'm just one man
Lord knows, family struggling to pay their bills
This ain't just a rap this shit is real
Lord knows, this world can be so cold
Love this music shit but I won't sell my soul
Lord knows, Lord knows, Lord knows
Lord knows, Lord knows, Lord knows
Lord knows, I'm doing all that I can
World on my shoulders but I'm just one man
Lord knows, family struggling to pay their bills
This ain't just a rap this shit is real
