lyrics

Rattrap Lyrics

Chorus:
Everyday is a test/When you strive to succeed/It's a challenge/Trying to balance/All your wants and your needs/So many ways/That will lead you to the greed/Trapped up in the maze/Getting dazed/For the cheese/And/I got homies in the rat trap/Sh*t/My ex girl's in the rat trap/What/I got fam in the rat trap/And I don't want to get caught up

Verse 1 (F.Y.I.):
Excuse me if I'm bugging out/Believe me/I'm a do the right thing/They tried to copy my skin/Ain't found the right ink/Shaved the stresses in my life/Put the stubble in the sink/Some huddle in the street/Just to get a quarter back/The troubled young geek found the answers in the trash/More robbing less giving/To get ahead of the class/Gold diggers don't mind if you focus on the a*s/Most niggas that rhyme/Don't get boatloads of cash/And that's a fact/It ain't the end all to be all/Putting it together/Like a blind man/Working a jigsaw/Truly it's puzzle/Little homie at the drive thru/Said something/But his voice sound muffled/He want to tongue tussle/With a model from Brussels/I'm telling you cousin/The trap never was joke/To get out/Is the realest sh*t/I ever hoped

Chorus (1x)

Verse 2 (F.Y.I.):
Dead or alive/He's 135/Soaking wet/Storms of life/Had him fighting the tides/Dumb luck/Foolish pride/Got dirty laundry smelling moldy/Beefing with him team/It seems/He's venomous as Kobe/Redeemed hustler/Quick to say/Homie don't you owe me?/Little mama is 5/Daddy no ride/He cried as she asked for pony/It's a merry go round/Of the lost not found/In a world so controlling/Sell or spam/Sh*t/Some forget to be promoted/Digital Age/The grown is deleted/Two tylenols/From not waking up/From the evening/This young money world/Wheezing/Seeing pools of red/Hadiya (Pendleton)/Drowned in her bleeding/Hard to smile in the trap/When you desperate for the cheesing/Bread scarce around my way/Might jack a paid vegan/You are what you eating/Baby steps/To get out of debt/I guess we all teething

Chorus (1x)

Verse 3 (Early):
Many fell off the deep end/Trying to get the gwap/You not satisfied with the boat/So now you want the yacht/See/Now you gambling/Rolling dice/Yahtzee/But you should be happy with what you got/You could have a canooe/For bread that will never mold/And cheese that will never melt/You bartered the ultimate/You sacrified yourself/It's in my blood/I gotta fight/I gotta hustle nigga/I'm out here opening doors/You can't knock my hustle nigga/I took risk/I rather slit my wrist/Then take a hit/My uncle fell ill/To the ills of the streets/I know/But I'm immune/I'm fly/I'm dope/I listen close to my nigga/I hope he got the antidote/So we all get a rope/Either a lasso around your goals/Or hang if you don't/It's either sink or swim/So put your chips in/Only you can win/But no rat trap/Big enough/To catch a hueman
