Good Life, Bad Luck

The hand dealt is never expected.

lyrics

[spoken]
He said chewed up and spit out
boo’ed off and checked out.
How bout cursed up and kicked out? Used up and left out?
But every bone in me busts a hustle.

Ain’t looking for a fucking free pass.

Save your favors for the next lollipop sucker 
- you feel me?

Selected few may understand,
just what it's like To up and leave;
uproot yourself, no plan.
Spare a pillow, fuck four walls; Got two ebts.
Living out-of-my whip. Free cellphone;
POTUS watching me

Gon’ try to make it; reach a little farther

Is this the right profession? These are the things I ponder.
And if I fail, it wasn't cause I quit.
Let the game find my weak spot, ‘for I could attack it.

Send me -
please someone send me a sign.
Say what I’m doing is right.
Stray from the left if I’m doing just fine.
Is the wind facing me home?
Other way to the unknown?
Reach the end of my rope; good life or bad luck?

Someone point me to the richest man
The one who’s looking for the monkey/cymbal dance act
Motivated intentions; meditated.
Evil scheming. Tie my banging hands,
curtain calls, I’m still bleeding.
Gon try to steal it; Gon try to rob me

Is this the right profession these things I ponder
If I fail, it wasn't cause I quit.
Let the game find my weak spot, ‘for I could attack it.

Send me -
please someone send me a sign.
Say what I’m doing is right.
Stray from the left if I’m doing just fine.
Is the wind facing me home?
Other way to the unknown?
Reach the end of my rope; good life or bad luck?
