Bitter World - Ace Hood

Struggle in my past, painted my expressions

Running on my last, avoid the deep depressions

Beefing with the bottom, I’m so afraid of fallin

And all these fucking problems turning me into an alcoholic

Where did I go wrong, I swear this can’t be life

17 and pregnant, that just can’t be right

In love with a man who fucking your friend depends on what you like

(This Bitter Earth)

Uh, this world is crazy, even my babies, gotta receive the sight

Just ask the lord to give me the strength so they believe what’s right

And not some smooth nigga who trying to get her home tonight

Invest in a gun and hope that the thug who come just ain’t the type

It’s a cold world, keep your sweater close

Made it big but seems like family the ones who hate the most

That’s a damn shame, how dare you doubt your blood

Don’t know my real father, how come he dropped my love

Why when I’m all alone, there’s no one to hug

He left me all alone, how could you leave your cub

But fuck it I’m a man, with or without your ass

They ask about my pain, some things I wish that I had

Just thank the man above, my mom’s consider my dad

She working spending her last, whatever we wanted we had

The struggle created a man, no longer your job demands

No thoughts of contraband, I’ve failed and let’s re-planned

I’ve been through hell and back, but still I’m here to stand

Mama need a house, so fuck it I bought some land

Dyin' to be the greatest, but greater comes with patience

Got my business right, and plus my mama good

What more heart is just to say I made it out the hood

You fucking right, Bitter World

Cried a hundred tears when I see my baby girls

When I see my baby girls

Damn!

Blood, sweat, and tears, this my testimony

Just know the world is yours!

Ain’t that right, Tony?

Gas prices high, niggas dying young

Bad role models, that’s what that came from

That’s what that came from

(This Bitter World) My God

(Well, well) My God (Well, This Bitter Earth)

Dear World, dear World, I need you undivided

And know some choices that we made were highly undecided

We keep it in mind, we givin em signs, the time just disregard it

(This bitter world)

Some live in the blind afraid of the light

But pain just can’t be departed

The things that I seen, I wish it was dreams, it seems I’m sleeping hardly

Lost a lot of homies, endured a lot of pain

Pray for better nights, slowly they became

I hear my phone ring, fuck who callin me

I just hope that it’s success who trying to bother peace

Fuck this bitter world, with no apologies

Babies having babies, what could your father be

Sick of being tired, and tired of being broke

Mama worked too hard, I pray no signs of stroke

Microphone and words, clearly show me hope

Without it I’m alone, clearly you should know

(Well, well)

Amen

(Well, This Bitter Earth)
