Best I Can

[Verse 1] I heard Rome wasn't built in a day, but it fell in one World full of dreams, buying or you selling 'em Sometimes you can't get ahead cause of your melanin It's hard to move on with a closet full of skeletons Feel like we'll never win, in debt we forever in People are dying and they can't afford they medicine Fake friends I had to sever them Cause when I needed a helping hand dawg, it was never them Remember when we was young kids? Hungry, didn't think about money Sit and twisting something lovely Talking 'bout what you gon' do next Misplaced the few steps And now we 9 to 5 living off two checks Or drug money that we gotta keep flipping Knee deep in this bullshit but never play the victim Long as my heart ticking, I ain't taking what they given I'ma pivot, baby need new shoes so I'ma get 'em And I'm [Hook] "I'm doing the very best I can" Every day of my life "I'm doing the very best I can" Cause every day is a fight "I'm doing the very best I can" I'm just trying to do right "I'm doing the very best I can" "I'm doing the very best I can" Every day of my life "I'm doing the very best I can" Cause every day is a fight "I'm doing the very best I can" I'm just trying to do right "I'm doing the very best I can" [Verse 2] I'm 31 with a growing family So my desire for this music shit is starting to fade rapidly I keep boxing Reality, I keep dodging An alcoholic with a weed problem, streets keep calling I'm trying not to answer I need to quit smoking, yo I worry about cancer I'm overweight by like 20 or 30 And I'm quick to pop off if niggas act like they ain't heard me But if you observe me you'll know my heart is big You know if I got it you got it my nigga, I'll split all of it You know I'll have your back and I Talk about my son with a love that is magnified So nah, I'm not the baddest guy I got my flaws and all But ain't too much bad niggas you can say about the boy Fuck trying to spit good verses Cause right now I'm working on being a good man a good person [Hook]
