Striving To Succeed Video (MV)

Ayo, striving to succeed, cause he's soaked in pain
Head down in those books timid looking wants to fly away
Abandoned by his family hoping for a new salary Parents nodded off
He's wondering who else would sleep on me
Bar after bar line after line 15 working hard whilst his parents snorted lines
After every confrontation punched kicked spit slapped and grabbed
He goes running upstairs putting pen to pad and
All the neighbours hear but act like they don't know
Waiting for the next episode hoping it will be slow
Cries breaking through the boards just makes a better show
Last episode parents bought drugs now he's all alone

Mind is so broken he feels like shit bad crowd he hangs around got it fixed
Selling rocks for keys to his white crib 17 feeling like how Al Capone did
Everyday he's paranoid nothing can keep him zen cause the opps round the
Block knows he be selling weed so they made a trip he wasn't lacking he got a grip
Shots rang out in the night time in four minutes he got hit
Now the sirens coming it's getting closer
His eyes rolled back, he thought it was over
Suddenly he wakes up in a hospital bed
Scanning for his group but found nobody there
Wow so devastating his mind is racing
The feeling of deja vu like the day his parents left him
How could his group abandon him too he feels like a fool
For showing love he will never receive
