Yerrrr
Look
Got to keep my eyes on the prize
Workin day and night
No matter how I try I can never get it right
See the tears I my eyes
I just want to cry
Got too much pride
You know the vibes
Fighting hard times
Bout to lose my job
Rent is really high I'm just tryna beat the odds
Got to change my life
Not waiting for a sign
Won't know if i don't try
Keep my eyes on the prize

As times shifts where do I begin
I'm just tryna live
Give all I can give
I know that in the end
Imma start the trend peace and blessings to my friends so I
Rise and grind
Time to get that ass up
Whoever handed out them silver spoons they never asked us
Had to do some dirty deeds to let the paper add up
When you down to your last the bag is hard to pass up
I keep running from my past
I hope it never catch up
Hear the police sirens man I hope that they just pass us
I'm trying to push them demons down but they keep coming back up
Karma coming back around I got to clean my act up
Running out of time
My loved ones on my mind
Can't get out of line
Keep my eyes on the prize

Keep my eyes on the prize
Workin day and night
No matter how I try I can never get it right
See the tears I my eyes
I just want to cry
Got too much pride
You know the vibes
Fighting hard times
Bout to lose my job
Rent is really high I'm just tryna beat the odds
Got to change my life
Not waiting for a sign
Won't know if i don't try
Keep my eyes on the prize

Sometimes I think is this as good as it gets
This ain't what I imagined when I dreamed as a kid
I guess it's time to dream a new dream
The world tore me down I had to build a new me so I
Changed my outlook
Forgave my past
Learned a little history and used a little math
The universe provided all I had to do was ask but
I was way too focused on the things I didn't have
Those dirty deeds was the only ones I had
And they don't truly show you who I am
I'm better than ever use those lessons to guide me
Got tunnel vision I'm focusing on what I need
I used to worry but started looking inside me
I had to change for the better no one besides me

Keep my eyes on the prize
Workin day and night
No matter how I try I can never get it right
See the tears I my eyes
I just want to cry
Got too much pride
You know the vibes
Fighting hard times
Bout to lose my job
Rent is really high I'm just tryna beat the odds
Got to change my life
Not waiting for a sign
Won't know if i don't try
Keep my eyes on the prize
