lyrics

And whatever you do
You got to make due
And that’s the way it goes
Life is full of hurt but we can’t let go oh no

I own a minivan 95 Mazda
My ride elevated like I’m in a helicopter
And I ain’t tryna race, I ain’t into all that drama
Cause gasoline too high and I ain’t got alotta
Dollas for the tank, I’m not baller with the bank
6 cylinders, killin ya, funds is what I lack
Cause my whip be breakin’ down like R&B tracks
Alignments, tune ups, brakes and all of that
I put money on my ride, and people think its still whack
I’m not dude with the benz, shiny with gloss black
I’m a hub cap rollin, steerin wheel controlling,
Got my window wiper movin in the back…
Gotta floor that pedal on the freeway medal
Movin steady just to feel a little fast
As a matter of fact I’ma cruise for the day
Roll like cassette tapes smooth in the lane

And whatever you do
You got to make due
And that’s the way it goes
Life is full of hurt but we can’t let go oh no

Growin up understand the cash was down
When I outgrew my clothes I wore hand-me-downs
From my older cousins, fams, ya boy got clowned
An ocean of insult hopin ya boy would drown
That’s some 1st world problems, other folks stravin
Americans spending they rent to look large when
They working for that minimum, very few options
Lack of priorities spend with no caution
That’s a pit my mother would refuse to ever fall in
Substance over style, purpose over flossin
Bought 10 dollar shoes that her son could walk in
Felt out of place like my kicks was martian
Them kids was talking but the problem is
You can look rich but we all improverished
Mama save lots for a future college kid
Makin due cause I knew she good on promises

And whatever you do
You got to make due
And that’s the way it goes
Life is full of hurt but we can’t let go oh no
