TRYNNA MAINTAIN Lyrics

I've felt pleasure, I've felt pain

Tryna find my treasure, tryna maintain

Will I live forever, how long will they know my name

Would you tat it on your arm or would you put it on a chain

Man they never keep it real, they just make up

Soon you'll have to face your reality and wake up

Your reality and wake up

Your music full of lies but you claim that you the truth

How you sayin' that you bi when you only fuck with dudes

Heard you from the other side, why you with the other crew

Man my homie had to die, still I wish it wasn't true

When it comes to all that drama, I ain't with it

Unless you touch my mama, then boy let's get it

Shorty broke up with the kid but she still gon' let me hit it

Losses took him on the chin, thankful that we finally winning

I ain't talkin' durags but they back up on the wave

I don't care who get mad, just stay the fuck up out the way

You was hot back in the day, you fallin' off like missing crates

Bitch I been one of the greats and that's not up for debate

I been working 24, that's where every verse get ate (8)

Every time they check the score, I'm the one they gotta chase

Still the one they underrate, though I never felt the way

Gettin' messages from fans, type of shit that make your day

I've felt pleasure, I've felt pain

Tryna find my treasure, tryna maintain

Will I live forever, how long will they know my name

Would you tat it on your arm or would you put it on a chain

Man they never keep it real, they just make up

Soon you'll have to face your reality and wake up

Your reality and wake up

Pardon my excessiveness, borderline perfectionist

With a deck of hits, yeah, and I get a check for this

So what you hear as effortless, spent days on nights perfecting this

My 10,000 hours feel like a minute and some change now

Pen game insane now, the difference is we stayed down

Never trippin' like greyhounds, who you kiddin' like playgrounds

It's cold out, but it's heating up like seats in the winter

Throw your glasses in the air, it's different surrounded by winners yeah

How you say it's slime season, you ain't even known as slime

How you say it's grind season, you ain't even known to grind

When it's grind time, I'm in overtime like tied scores

Knock you off your high horse, tryna block my course

They say their rap is dying, I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel the way

We put so much into this shit, they making millions off our pain

My favorite rapper wanted change, until he seen them chains
