Falling

Jellyroll- You know somebody once told me that change is the only thing that will never change That same person told me that if I want to change my circumstances I'll only change when the pain that it will take to change is greater than the pain it actually takes to remain the same So sayin' that the horror of my situation has to outweigh the discomfort it will actually take to turn around LeeLee- I'm feelin like I'm falling And everybody keeps callin And I don't think they know what What I"m going through going through going through What about the late nights I was chillin at the grave sight I'm feelin like I hate life This is what I'm going through going through What am I gonna do Jellyroll- This for the gangstas in the trap This is for all the hustlas This for the woman that just struggles as a single mother This for the ones house the house livin on the Street Because they realize that money doesn't grow on trees This for the ones with an addiction Lord open they eyes Give them the strength to quit before they overdose and die These streets are crazy now Lord it's straight insanity I done seen prescription pills, ruin a whole family My mama doin bad My cousin in the pen Daddy drinkin again Lord let this stress end This for the ones that had to bury they best friend I'm talkin crew thick I'm talkin next to kin LeeLee- I'm feelin like I'm falling And everybody keeps callin And I don't think they know what What I"m going through going through going through What about the late nights I was chillin at the grave sight I'm feelin like I hate life This is what I'm going through going through What am I gonna do Jellyroll- She's such a good woman Why is she actin foolish She coulda went to college Coulda been an honor student Baby daddy died in the streets She ain't deserving that Now she's having sex for OC's, Tabs, and Percocet's Since the recession can't nobody get a decent job So they gotta beat so hard or hit the streets and rob They work they ass off but they don't get a day off If they don't get the payoff they just surrounded by chaos What about my 9 to 5'as About to go insane They work they life away And still ain't got a fucking thing And what about the man that nightly opens up a bottle Cuz it's the only way he knows to deal with all his problems LeeLee- I'm feelin like I'm falling And everybody keeps callin And I don't think they know what What I"m going through going through going through What about the late nights I was chillin at the grave sight I'm feelin like I hate life This is what I'm going through going through What am I gonna do Jellyroll- Okay I got a deal with triple six and lil white But put that to the side this is what I'm livin like I got a deal but I'm so broke it isn't funny But every time my phone rings they asking me for money My niece is 14 She's having sex That isn't cool What's even worse she fucked a 24 year old dude Wish that I had the power to pull Dre out the grave And spend a day going to let him watch his kids play I think about Sams every time I write a song But I don't take the time to grab the phone and call his mom I'm sick to my stomach Lord I ain't feelin well Had the same nightmare every night they end up killing real Struggle got to fear Case they want him in a cell Searchin for heaven Cuz right now I feel I live in hell I thank the Lord that every day I'm a man of prayer Cuz if it wasn't for God I wouldn't be stayin here Stacy lost a sister right in front of her That's fucked up Wish I could find the dude that killed her And go shoot his truck up And she keeps calling me I know she needs a friend lately But I'm so bitter I don't take that to consideration Fuck it I'm sorry Stacy Love you You knew that Just call me anytime I'll be there I done proved that They say that heaven's for the sinners too I hope it's true And I'm just tellin y'all what the fuck I'm going through You see we fear not the things that we know But we only fear what we don't know What we're not comfortable with We can't see What's not tangible to us But the Bible says that faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen So sometimes we just have to leap out on a branch of faith And we all know God honors faith
