ain't good enough - k-rino lyrics

[intro: k-rino]

i feel for you homie
been there

[hook] x2

fell victim to the system cause the hood is tough
i could’ve raised up and went back to the cut
tryna do it right the old me i put it up
how can you win when your best ain’t good enough?

[verse 1]
he was fresh out the pen still in his prime
changed his life for the better while he did his time
it’s amazing how he was able too keep his mind
came home started searching for a legal grind
lost years mentally hard to digest
had a woman on his side through the process
brainstorming on some ideas they plotted big
she agreed to hold him down until he got a gig
month after month somebody forgot to tell him (what?)
it’s hard to get a job once you a convicted felon
acc-mulation of trepidation and frustration
plus alot of dust collected on his application
he stayed honest straight up and down like 6 o’clock
and cl!cked yes in that “have you been convicted” box
everything he try to do just seem to fall though
“thank you sir, please don’t call us will call you”

[hook] x2

[verse 2]
eight months deep, still same situation
now his woman’s on him daily running out of patience
the scenario they looking at is typical
now she want him to walk it out like an elliptical
so fast forward and his manhood got targeted
and lack of them resolving it escalated those arugments
cause how can he run his house properly
when he’s clocking no profit and she constantly makes mockery
and what added to the overall discrepancy
was the suprise un-expectancy of a pregnancy (ooh)
and when the time came she straight dissed him
and took they buisness straight to the dirty court system
knew he was trying hard that was nothing but greed
took him out cause he wasn’t moving at her speed
she put a good man out and let hatred in
now he gotta make it work so let the games begin

[hook] x2

[verse 3]
now it’s crunch time everyday stormy weather
the need to go and get some bread is more intense than ever
odd jobs all day tryna stack some mail
have that money every month or go back to jail
couldn’t believe that she would place him in that situation
though he was paying she’s still hating on his visitations
when his paper slows she threaten to tell them folks
he even contemplated going back to selling dope
he was getting checks he just wasn’t cashing enough
plus his baby momma’s new dude started g-ssing her up
“forget that fool we need that money he don’t pay it, crush him
what’chu trippin’ on he ain’t never gave you nothing”
all and all it was a dirty thing to do because
the real truth is she knew what kind of dude he was
he kept grinding but once again it’s not enough
fell behind, chased a l!ck got caught and they locked him up

[hook] x2
