SINIMA a013 Quick & Pain

(tag: SINIMA BEATS)
i'm in love, 
no job and no leads
just a piece of paper
thats my degree
the heats turned off
its cold in the winter
Pennsylvania never felt so 
cold in December
I know not 
how to be a winner
eatin saltines and hot 
sauce for dinner
ashamed to ask mom and dad
for a dollar
got caught dealin
so i'm payin my lawyer
with my life savings
I'm trying to save
and this is the first time
crime don't pay
looking for a job
washin dishes to pay 
the state fees
so I can fight my case
its nobody's fault
but mine...
my girl keeps showing me
that love is blind
cause I don't see
what she loves me in me
all I have to offer
is my degree and

I'm twenty one goin on twenty two
feels like nobody knows what i'm going through
young and dumb, and my life's confused
I'm twenty one goin on twenty two
I'm twenty one goin on twenty two
the first time nobody's tellin me what to do
in love with no money and no excuse
I'm twenty one, goin on twenty two





I never knew I had it so gooood
and I would go back if I coooould
I woulda done some things different
but now its like, whats the f*** in difference
I got books and grades 
and dreams and my
family just wants 
me to grow up, but I'm
twenty one 
goin on twenty two
and I don't know what the hell 
I want to do
I feel trapped by money 
and I can't prove
that I'm ready to put 
what I learned to use
and the real world looms
my girlfriends a junior
if a job makes me move
I'm afraid I could lose her
and nobody's handing me nothin
interviewers are immune
to my fronting, I'm smart
with my hand, playin my cards
but I'm starting
to understand that life is hard


I'm twenty one goin on twenty two
feels like nobody knows what i'm going through
young and dumb, and my life's confused
I'm twenty one goin on twenty two
I'm twenty one goin on twenty two
and I gotta decide what i'm gon' do
in love with no money and no excuse
I'm twenty one, goin on twenty two













i'm so broke 
and no swag
wishin I was rapping
on beats with no tags
and I ain't nobody
cause nobody like me
tryna save ten grand
by the time I'm twenty-three
I never been a by-the-book man
One day I'll probably write a book man
I can clean and cook, and
I'm done doin dirt
I put in work
even if its work in a button-up shirt

I'm twenty one goin on twenty two
and right now I know what I have to do!
Learn from the past, and make my moves
I'm only twenty one goin on twenty two
I'm twenty one goin on twenty two
and I gotta decide what i'm gon' do
Money only means what it means to you
and love is what gets you through 
when your 22
