Little in my pocket — pressure in my chest
Got a smile on my face, but I ain't got rest
Woke up praying I could pause this stress
But the rent don’t wait and the pain don’t guess
Told my fam “I'm good” just to keep them calm
But I’m overdrafted in both my cards
Said “God provides” like a churchman would
But faith ain't food — and belief ain't wood
Had dreams bigger than my hometown
Now I'm working double just to slow down
Trying to float with the world on my neck
And bills stacked taller than my self-respect more
A tribute to family, loyalty, and legacy.
