I Know I Can Make It
(专辑: The Block Brochure: Welcome To The Soil 2 - 2012)
You better watch your step if you want to go to Heaven Sometimes I
just wish that I
could fly away I'm struggling but I'm searching for a
better day I
know I
can make it I
know I
can make it Sometimes I
just wish that I
could fly away I'm struggling but I'm searching for a
better day I
know I
can make it I
know I
can make it Uhh When I
was a
boy, I
had to be a
man When they told me "I couldn't", I
told 'em that "I can" It's God's plan, the
way that things done panned out I
got my life off the
stress, so ain't no need to pout The
choir sing and the
missionaries shout But, when that church organ plays, that's when my tears get to pouring out Just a
kid from the
soil, tryna prosper Tired of hearing gunshots and sirens and helicopters Grew up around killers, villains and robbers Drug dealers, con artists and slick talkers They say that if you got talent, you 'posed to use it All my life, I've been around music Played the
drums in elementary, all the
way through twelfth Start rapping in seventh grade, now I
got records on the
shelf Hard work, dedication, intestinal fortitude A
real hustler out the
hood, determined to be that dude We didn't get everything in our Christmas bag that other kids had But whatever we had, we was glad Uhh, God is good and I'm okay with being underrated No matter what they think about me, man I
made it Sometimes I
just wish that I
could fly away I'm struggling but I'm searching for a
better day I
know I
can make it I
know I
can make it Sometimes I
just wish that I
could fly away I'm struggling but I'm searching for a
better day I
know I
can make it I
know I
can make it I'm Suga-T, I've been often underestimated A
chick in the
game, gotta carry her weight, or she'll get slated I
was a
teen mom, an ugly duckling grown a
swan But to this very day, I
remain a
hip hop mom (Yeah) Didn't always make the
best choices, but that's okay I
still hold the
title "The Queen of The
Bay" It was only God's grace that I'm still alive (Still alive) 'Cause to be a
boss lady you gotta pay the
price (Pay the
price) I
used to be quick to pull a
lick, quick to check a
trick I
messed around and found out that rapping was one of my gifts (Uh huh) Legendary, I
make history still I
could take the
pimpstress route, or I
could pay my own bills (Yeah) I
know that I
can make it, even though they're player hating (Uh huh) Eventually, they'll be congratulating, uh huh Cash rules everything around but game is priceless And when we die, we better hope we make the
right list Sometimes I
just wish that I
could fly away I'm struggling but I'm searching for a
better day I
know I
can make it I
know I
can make it Sometimes I
just wish that I
could fly away I'm struggling but I'm searching for a
better day I
know I
can make it I
know I
can make it A-Agerman I
know I
can make it through these hard times I
fall on my knees and cry after calling a
friend of mine He's [?] through the
storm and the
rain As them tears drop down your cheek he'll ease the
pain My God, [?] But joy comes in the
morning, you gonna make it through the
night When it's dark in your life, look towards God, 'cause He's the
light that shines bright [?] continue to fight the
good fight 'Cause faith [?], the
things we hope for When hard times come, that's God knocking at your door Reminding us all to fall on our knees and pray To give us hope, to let us know there's a
brighter day Sunshine after the
rain Joy coming right after the
pain It's Agerman, E-40 and Suga-T, y'all know We all go through hard times But we gonna make it out fo' sho' Sometimes I
just wish that I
could fly away I'm struggling but I'm searching for a
better day I

can make it Sometimes I
just wish that I
could fly away I'm struggling but I'm searching for a
better day I
know I
can make it I
