Discouraged
[Verse 1]
Money comes, money goes
Sun keep you warm, cold gives a runny nose
Bummy clothes, sometimes, people see you in
Don't matter what you got on, they gon' be your friend
But then again, when you're broke, the love's gone
Can't bring home the bacon or bring the grub home
You plug your phone, turn it on, but your shit's off
'Cause you didn't pay the bill, gal pissed off
Dick soft, but you're still screamin, "Fuck the world"
Time to find another job and another girl
Can't escape the race, yeah, you gotta run
Try to balance thе hate with a lot of fun
I have to remеmber to pray every day I wake
Not to break if I make a mistake
[Chorus]
The second hand on the clock don't stop
Gotta keep climbin' 'til you hop on top ('Cause)
Whoever said life was easy?
Same folks who believe in magic
You gotta pay, mane, it ain't no freebies
And buy the things that'll make you happy
Funny how the people treat you
When your money gone and you don't have it
Don't worry, don't get nervous
Discouraged
[Verse 2]
Believe it and achieve it, that's how the saying goes
But don't forget the part about payin' dues, stay in school
Obey the rules, never play the fool
They see a weakness? You know what they'll do
Take advantage, so, manage your revenue
Lettin' somebody use you is what you never do
Take advice as needed just to make it right
If you love someone, tell 'em 'fore you say goodnight
'Cause life is too short, you can ask Todd
If there's anything you need, you should ask God
Then work hard, can't be lackin', slackin' or guessin'
And try to call, hear the message, hit you back in a second
I reckon I should live more responsible
And never have to deal with deputies and constables
[Chorus]
The second hand on the clock don't stop
Gotta keep climbin' 'til you hop on top ('Cause)
Whoever said life was easy?
Same folks who believe in magic
You gotta pay, mane, it ain't no freebies
And buy the things that'll make you happy
Funny how the people treat you
When your money gone and you don't have it
Don't worry, don't get nervous
Discouraged
[Outro]
Gotta keep goin', can't stop right now
Gotta make a way anyway, anyhow
Hill kinda steep, but you still gotta climb
Water knee-deep, wade in it like wine
Gotta keep goin', can't stop right now
Gotta make a way anyway, anyhow
Hill kinda steep, but you still gotta climb
Water knee-deep, wade in it like wine
