Trying to survive in GI(remix)

It's nearly impossible to chase the dream you chasing after
when every step forward feels like 20 backwards,
trying to survive in GI where bullets fly..
living in the murder cap it's do or die.

Murda Murda kill kill all we see on TV
shawty hustle for the bill tryna live that fantasy
/toting pistols keep em close cause its hate and
jealousy/scared to look u in yo' eyes
best believe they frenemies/undercover
but they really scoping/ smiling
but they really hoping and praying
you lose yo focus/ and dreams really
go unnoticed/ they shooting na but
our hands up/I'm black so it's
just a pay cut/that's telling us we
ain't worth nothing/ unjustified no
brainstorming/unbothered by it so I keep going/
got the hustle in me so I keep flowing/
drop top more coins/ dream big my point/
why stop not going/ too many ppl that depend on me
/ focus and keeping control/
put on my city is really the goal/
we making the music you feel in yo soul/
so many stories going untold/
either u drinking or keeping one rolled/
that's how we do it/ that's how we cope yo/
that's half the battle we keep it moving like cattle/
nothing really else matters but money music and talent!

It's nearly impossible to chase the dream you

I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired
Now-a-days life is only all about who you decide can ride
Kanye Trump and Hillary in my eyes
Are some pitiful individuals especially when they're politicized

Now in all honesty who really cares
Bout a VMA, E-mail, or whether that's really your hair
The bigger picture bout preserving life
Minority death has become an epidemic and that shit ain't right

Now see when we decide to rebel
And refused to be put to the back
our choices are death or jail
Now tell me where's the Justice in that
And to add insult to injury my people still follow they map

So from this point on I'm through preaching peace
No more talks of unity all I can commit to is me doing me
Only advice I can give you get ready
And pay attention to detail cuz when shit get heavy!
It's nearly impossible to chase the dream
you chasing after when every step forward
feels like 20 backwards, trying to survive in GI
where bullets fly.. living in the murder cap it's do or die.

Having dreams in G.I., as a lil girl meant the world
to get up out the hood, never knew another way,
besides getting, to this money, my mama told me,
ain't nobody out here gone do nothing for me,
not even family, so I gotta get up n get it,
having visions and plotting missions,
penitentiary's no decision, but the government
got permission, to receive commission, for
admission of all these young black fathers,
look what poverty taught us,
all these youngin's just, think that it's
cool to smoke in 6th grade, skip
and ditch school, not learning a thang,
riding around carrying guns, smiling
at mothers for taking their sons, man,
scary Gary the murda cap, tryna make it
off this rap before I'm laid out on my back,
praying to God, he watching my son,
hoping he live to see 21, the G don't support,
it's no one or all, but one for all, we destined to fall,
cause that's what they want,
and that's what they think,
that we gone follow into their defeat,
and we not gone make it
if all of my people keep killing,
and smoking, and drinking, while thinking,

It's nearly impossible to chase the dream
you chasing after when every step forward
feels like 20 backwards,
trying to survive in GI where bullets fly..
living in the murder cap it's do or die.
