Kedd Kanan - Trying Times (feat. Jc Sav)

You ain't gotta call for me to get the message
Mrs. Independent never needed my protection
Thought I needed love but really all I wanted was attention
Tryna make these bag moves with the cruelest of intentions
Never thinking bout your feelings
Dreaming with no ceilings
Thinking I could really be somebody out here winning
But the truth is I'm really just a nigga out here sinning
With a pistol and a vengeance
If I'm gone it be different right?
If opportunities arise I got decisions
I ain't walk the yard for five years to still be penny pinching
And the way I'm feeling the grave is just the final stage
In this section of my story it's just another page
But we keep writing til I see the perfect timing
Then exit stage left tell my niggas keep on grinding
Tell my momma that I'm happy so there ain't no need in crying
Tell my kids if they ain't loyal
Then it ain't no need in trying
Made a promise to myself if I ain't living
Then I'm dying
And if the truth hurts it'll kill If I'm lying
Tell the feds I ain't talking
So it ain't no use in prying
Ghetto dreams since fourteen
I was really out here shining
These are trying times
Not crying times
If I could do it all again
I wouldn't press rewind
From where I came from
To what I'm bout to see
I can tell that I'm exactly where I need to be
These are trying times
Not crying times
If I could do it all again
I wouldn't press rewind
From where I came from
To what I'm bout to see
I can tell that I'm exactly where I need to be
Where I came from is what you're bout to see
Ghetto ass nigga out here somewhere living lavishly
All dogs go to heaven
I can't live life on a leash
Hoping I don't go to hell
I need someone to pray for me
Came a long way from busting scales and busting heads that bleed
Wishing my niggas wasn't locked up
I wait for their release
Took a step back from the streets
I'm glad it wasn't me
Twenty-three and one would probably make me lose my sanity
What's the point in having visions?
If you don't chase what you seen
Decide who you want to be in life
Embrace your destiny
Rapping with a passion in heart
Then grab the mic and sing
Day dreaming bout this cutie
Who's been texting me
She mind fucked me when started speaking sexually
Her intimate conversations just got the best of me
We was vibing
But now she crying
Tell me what's the matter baby?
There's no need in hiding
The way you feel inside when you're down on yourself
Holding in those stressful emotions is bad for your health
I'm a cold hearted nigga but for you it'll melt
Are you gone open up to me or leave your books on the shelf?
No more crying
Oohh no more crying
I hate to see you cry I wipe those tear drops off your eyelids
Sweet kissing on your lips
Yeah I know that'll get you smiling
Just keep on pushing through these trying times and keep on trying
