Lyrics:

We gon' do it like this, do it like this, word
Check it out yo, yo, yo

Through difficult times it's hard to maintain
Lookin' for the shelter that blocks out the rain
Stress and pain can leave a mark on the brain
But one thing's for sure black, God remains

Through difficult times, lies the unexpected
My pops disapproves 'cause I wanna make records
But check it, my home life dissected, I feel neglected
I bounce the first chance I get, I stop to think a second
I reckon, that I'm gonna need a place to sleep
And major cream
I call up the God Supreme
I analyze, I'm plannin' up a strategy
Fuck a fantasy, I'm dealin' with reality
Mentality that's wilder than the average cat
I'm snatchin' cream and sellin' nigga's candle wax
I hit the tracks, I hold the cipher with my brothers
All is understood, peace lies amongst each other
But meanwhile, I maintain to keep the same
I smoke a bone every now and then to ease the pain
But through the struggle, I know that only God remains

Through difficult times it's hard to maintain
Lookin' for the shelter that blocks out the rain
Stress and pain can leave a mark on the brain
But one thing's for sure black, God remains

The streets is bugged
Seein' young soldiers pedal drugs by the pound
The scheme is to catch cream at a fast rate
Start movin' the product from state to state
Lay up and watch ya profits inflate
Now you're a big-time hustler, full-time heavyweight contender
But you must remember
That your thoughts must be cold just like December
Stay low key so you won't catch a case
Throws comin' in from the fiends who smoke base
That mad clientele, so your pockets start to swell
The last thing on your mind is a jail cell
You're blind, all you see is money
Lost in illusion of luxury
It's a shame, you're in the game for the fame and the name
So spin the wheel of misfortune
I heard with the sling that escorts ya
Now your life is in jeopardy
Because younga brothers is livin' the army

Through difficult times it's hard to maintain
Lookin' for the shelter that blocks out the rain
Stress and pain can leave a mark on the brain
But one thing's for sure black, God remains

Keep calm and don't expose any weak points
We'll all line up and fight together
I say, we must all stay together as a single unit
