illy - tighten the reins lyrics

[intro: illy]
and you know
everyone’s got their stories
life ain’t easy
yeah, yeah

[verse 1]
he was a good man, not the brightest but a big heart
came from a sh+t start, man, he had to live hard
he thinks how life would’ve been like
had he came from the green side o’ the tracks
feels insignificant, sees his life passin’ by
another face in a long line
questions why he’s here, he puts his hands to the sky
face to face with god, demands a reply
he never had much but he lovеs his seeds
and they love him more than lifе and that’s all he needs
to get it, up outta bed seven days a week
‘cause them smiles gotta stay so them childs gotta eat
so he tightens the reins, he’s fightin’ the pain
it’s dark but he gon’ see the light at the day
it’s hard but he won’t let his family fall
f+ck a bank balance, that’s a real man to meet, y’all
ain’t about account amounts and what it’ll bring
‘cause life ain’t life without the small, little things
and he gon’ bleed a river before givin’ in
he just hope the lord listen in when he feelin’ like this
[commentary: [?] & j+skub]
this is [?]
what’s up to ill al, this mixtape
[?]
[?]
what’s up? this is j+skubs, check out my boy, illy the kid

[verse 2: illy]
a bad kid, hard upbringin’
but in him, somethin’ special shines bright
taken wrong paths, he’s made mistakes but that’s life
it seems like these chances ain’t comin’ by twice
the street life, drugs, cheap thrills, it equals
dark situations, hard to rebuild
but, f+ck it, he will, he knows in his heart
it’s a long path back, the road to new stars
but each step he takes is one that’s closer
to his chosen goal, the young cat shows a
drive and ambition
‘cause he’s gonna make a life from this livin’ even if it k!ll him
had enough o’ borrowin’ time that he’s given
time to say goodbye or strive ‘til he’s winnin’
and he will and the work his hands scrawl
without a hand or leg up, he stands tall
and says “i’ma make it, f+ck it, i’ma make it”
“this time’s mine, i ain’t gonna waste it”
naked ambition to leave behind the heartache and
f+ck ‘em if they can’t take it, no patience for them
[commentary: esoterik]
yo, what’s goin’ down? this is eso
i’m representin’ for my man right now, illy
i got some dogs right here that wanna sing with me, hey?! [?] say somethin’
say ill al
