Lyrics of Eyez on da Prize by Z-RO

verse

How much longer do I have to suffer?
'Cause I can recall being told that it would get greater later but it keeps on gettin' rougher
Dealin' with devilish dudes on a day-to-day basis
But if a nigga don't deal with 'em, how ever the fuck am I to make some cranking faces?

verse

I gotta do what I gotta do to maintain
I'm gettin' sued, about to do some time
Plus my whole family left me cause I'm insane
Pain, Mary Jane ain't even relaxin' the strain

verse

Sometime I think about blowin' out my motherfuckin' brain
After the rain it ain't no sun, at least not where I come from
Every day be gloomy and grey
Still I try to hold my head up but I'm so fed up

verse

Everything I'm in love with is a weight
Guess I'm back on my own again
Gotta get used to bein' at home alone
Nigga, no water, no light, no phone
I'm sittin' all day dreamin' about bein' gone

chorus

Young nigga keep your eyes on da prize
If you focus on your goals you just might reach 'em before you die
Take your pressures and your pains and just let go and let God
Maybe he can kick it wit' you when the time get hard

chorus

You know, I wouldn't tell you nothin' that would hurt ya
Just tryin' to give some game so you won't run into a murder
So take your pressures and your pains and just let go and let God
Maybe he can kick it wit' ya when the times get hard

verse

Everyday is a constant grind, a nigga don't never be gettin' no rest
24/7 about my fede and if it's necessary a block get swept
Z-RO is a neat freak, and there's to many moutherfuckin' dirty rats in this game
I'm all about my furtone, I wouldn't give a fuck about da fame
But everyone keep on yellin' out my name

verse

I'm a drug addict, just tryin' to hold on to my sanity, losin' my grip
Smokin' on dose wit' da weed and da Codeine, so fucked up I can't understand shit
All I know is I got my motherfuckin' pistol to protect me
'Cause on a constant basis fools be tryin' to wet me

verse

Even still I turn to da Bible and I'm hopin' in da righteous path could direct me
Before strays fuck around and do more than graze, and dissect me
I'm livin' this thug life and I can't make it no clearer
Unlike these feminine fellas, dat practice mean muggin' in the mirror

verse

You ain't no gangsta, nigga, you a bitch, but Z-RO be out on da block
Lookin' for Luda lil' jewelries, livin wit' lavish habits 'til I get it can't stop
I'ma be on my own, my friend, tryin' to deal wit' life
So I'ma handle my business to be a big man
Motherfuck crackin' up, I gotta keep my mind straight to get paid
Bitch, I gotta get a grip

chorus

Young nigga keep your eyes on da prize
If you focus on your goals you just might reach 'em before you die
Take your pressures and your pains and just let go and let God
Maybe he can kick it wit' you when the time get hard

chorus

You know, I wouldn't tell you nothin' that would hurt ya
Just tryin' to give some game so you won't run into a murder
So take your pressures and your pains and just let go and let God
Maybe he can kick it wit' ya when the time get hard

verse

Lately I've been thinkin'
While I'm smokin' and I'm drinkin'
Why do I go through everything a person can go through?
And lately I've been hurtin'
'Cause I'm smothered by my burdens

verse

There ain't nothing I can do except let go and let you do what you do
Let me touch da hem of your garmet
'Cause I promise, my life is a target
And I don't know which way to go
Unless I'm on my way to the weed house or the liquor store

chorus

Young nigga keep your eyes on da prize
If you focus on your goals you just might reach 'em before you die
Take your pressures and your pains and just let go and let God
Maybe he can kick it wit' you when the time get hard

chorus

You know, I wouldn't tell you nothin' that would hurt ya
Just tryin' to give some game so you won't run into a murder
So take your pressures and your pains and just let go and let God
Maybe he can kick it wit' ya when the time get hard
