Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You got to go through the worst to become the best
Wake up every day I pray my soul to keep
Drowning all my pain in that hennessy
I been feeling down can't get a hold of me
Depression kicking in I'm feeling lonely
Wake up every day I pray my soul to keep
Drowning all my pain in that hennessy
Depression kicking in I'm feeling lonely
Wake up every day I pray my soul to keep
Drowning all my pain in that Hennessy
I been feeling down can't get a hold of me
Depression kicking in I'm feeling lonely
Lonely, on my only
Sworn enemies used to be my homies
Lonely, on my only
Sworn enemies used to be my homies
I was praying to the Lord while down on my ass
I knew people never loved me still gave them my last
I Woke up saw two people two gun and a mask
And they asked my mama where the freaking cash
This shit is heinous, I cannot paint this
Mama told to be quiet they'll leave you brainless
In my head I wanna try them but thought of violence
When they left I started crying like mama why us
Why us
Wake up every day I pray my soul to keep
Drowning all my pain in that Hennessy
I been feeling down can't get a hold of me
Depression kicking in I'm feeling lonely
Wake up every day I pray my soul to keep
Drowning all my pain in that hennessy
I been feeling down can't get a hold of me
Depression kicking in I'm feeling lonely
Bills pilling up frustration is kicking in high amounts
Same time this nigga Kev was defunding my own account
Shit is crazy I was funding his daughter when he was down
Thought of popping him and showing em what this man about
Ya pray for me
I just want to know if anybody love me faithfully
I don't want no friends if them friends gone turn to enemies
All this pain I been through what is love that shit dead to me
Love me to my face, behind my back they just gone envy me
Wake up every day I pray my soul to keep
Drowning all my pain in that hennessy
I been feeling down can't get a hold of me
Depression kicking in I'm feeling lonely
Wake up every day I pray my soul to keep
Drowning all my pain in that hennessy
I been feeling down can't get a hold of me
Depression kicking in I'm feeling lonely
