Just to find a way,
man
Every single day another obstacle
Listen
She just tryna find a way,
man
Every single day another obstacle Listen
She stressed out,
don't know what to do
Bills pilin' up,
single mom,
what she to do?
Said she stressed out,
kids complainin' 'bout food Landlord bein'
rude, she just stressed
Yeah, she tryna find a job,
certified But the economy is hard,
it's in her eyes Tryna keep
the dream alive Stressed out,
don't know what to do
Look at what she goin' through
Wakin' up at 5 AM,
body feelin' sore Stack of late
notice sittin' right beside the door
She got the degree,
did the work,
got the certificate Sent out fifty
applications, no one even answered it
Overqualified, oh,
we ain't hirin' right now System
got a trap but she still
gotta figure out How to keep
the lights on,
how to keep the heat high
Wipin' off her face every time
she start to cry Landlord knockin'
on the door,
talkin' real aggressive She just wanna
tell him that the pressure is
excessive Doin' this alone,
no assistance from anyone Tryna give
'em the world before the day
is done Stressed out,
don't know what to do Bills
pilin' up,
single mom,
what she to do?
Said she stressed out,
kids complainin' 'bout food Landlord bein'
rude, she just stressed Yeah,
she tryna find a job,
certified But the economy is hard,
it's in her eyes Tryna keep
the dream alive Stressed out,
don't know what to do
Look at what she goin' through
Countin' up,
countin' up quarters just to buy
a loaf of bread Holdin' back
the pain until the kids go
to bed Tells 'em everything's fine
with a smile on her face
Then goes to the kitchen,
breaks down in the space It's
tough when you certified,
ready for the bag But the
market so slow,
got you feelin' like you lack
Still she built different,
strength in her bones Makin' miracles
happen all on her own She
ain't gonna quit,
nah, she ain't gonna fold Turnin'
all that stress into a story
to be told Stressed out,
don't know what to do Bills
pilin' up,
single mom,
what she to do?
Said she stressed out,
kids complainin' 'bout food Landlord bein'
rude, she just stressed Yeah,
she tryna find a job,
certified But the economy is hard,
it's in her eyes Tryna keep
the dream alive Stressed out,
don't know what to do
Look at what she goin' through
Gotta make it to that day
Hold your head up,
mama
She stressed out but she ain't
breakin' Mm,
