I Can See by Hntr Jmz Lyrics
[Hook 1]
I can see a better life
Lord knows I'll never run
But I'm tired of my problems rather trade em in for better ones
I can see a better life
Life ain't ever easy I don't doubt it
But the issues that come with money gotta be better than those without it
[Verse 1]
Met her in Vegas, Ain't much to do but hit the strip club
Especially when you 20 they won't let you sip bub
She eyeing me in a way these girls don't really do
Gave me a dance, went on my way, in the morning guess who?
She hit me on facebook talking about how I am different
Not too excited prolly just want cash in exchange for clitoris
Weeks later conversation got fathoms deep
Told me this dude busted inside without her knowing she felt his seed
Agreed on pulling out cuz he said that he loved her
Guess that he meant tough love heart on his knuckle he punched her
Beat her, felt like he burned her sould Nas-Ether
But not weaker left him now Ma's keener a flawed dreamer
Don't wanna strip but that's the only way to keep the baby fed
Clothes on both they backs and tuition ahead
Said I'll do whatever I got to make sure my daughter do not live this life
She got no dad so it'll be hard but at least it won't be dim as mine was
And she was only 20
[Hook]
I can see a better life
Lord knows I'll never run
But I'm tired of my problems rather trade em in for better ones
I can see a better life
Life ain't ever easy I don't doubt it
But the issues that come with love gotta be better than those without it
[Verse 2]
Suburban boy
13
Comedic Genius
But hurting
See all he ever wanted was for his dad to love him
But he don't push his son to be better nah he just shove him
Beat his mom, abuse his bro, kick the dog uphold the law
Pretty easy to beat your fam when you got a gun on your hip
Told the boy he just a fuck up wouldn't ever be shit
You ain't Kevin Hart hell you ain't even Kevin James
Even said he'd put a bullet in the boys brain
God complex from the job he was trained
Lil buddy don't give up though he a fighter like his mamma
Never scared of an issue walk through the fires of drama
Plan to be a sports analyst just like Michael Rappaport
Making people laugh in the best way that he know how
Because he don't ever want someone to feel so low down
To where they just wanna hear someone tell em they so proud
[Hook]
I can see a better life
Lord knows I'll never run
But I'm tired of my problems rather trade em in for better ones
I can see a better life
Life ain't ever easy I don't doubt it
But the issues that come with a dream gotta be better than those without it
[Verse 3]
I grew up in a simple home mom, dad, brother
Parents worked hard always had money for supper
Hardly argued, Father never came close to uppercut her
Half black but only a couple of racial encounters that's a good number! Sadly
But it felt like God always shielded me
Seem like everybody I meet got a story of hardship to reveal to me
Some of em even shame me saying "You weak you been through nothing"
I know they wish they lived like this so that's why I'm never judging
That's why I picked the pen up be a man of the people
No better no worse not above or below but equal
I know that you might think it but my life ain't close to perfect
I'll never take it for granted I've seen first hand could be worse than
So to the listener I may not experience your festered strife
I've seen you since a youngin trust that I can see a better life
For my people whether you love me or you hate me
We may have different views but we all chasing the same thing
I can see a better life
Lord knows I'll never run
But I'm tired of my problems rather trade em in for better ones
I can see a better life
Life ain't ever easy I don't doubt it
But the issues that come with money gotta be better than those without it
