lyrics

First Verse:
Scared to death scared live what a way to live
What you give is what you get but you gotta give
Gotta give it up to mom raised kids, workin all them gigs 
New Years resolution every year  Buy My A Mom crib 
It's some real bullshit tho
I shoulda been had her chillin' in a villa ya know
a Lil somethin' somethin'
All this muthafuckin hustlin'
All this servin' all these custies, riskin' felonies bro
Couple bad flips from broke 
And it’s not like I’m broke 
but the last month or so
pack flippin slow 
I don’t panic but yo 
What the fuck goin' here 
Never ending drama but it’s riveting tho yo

Chorus:
Hand to hand 
Hand to mouth 
daily bread paper route 
Got a goal 
Plan it out 
Tryna to buy my mom a house 

Started off wit a ounce 
Man Man lookin' out
Trappin out my mama house 
Tryna buy my mom a house 

2nd Verse:
I see the ribbon on the door 
I see the expression on her face look of awe awwww
She don’t get it, can’t  believe it
Like mom it’s yours 
Reoccurring daydream my mind drifts off 
While I'm baggin up, countin up, 
voice in my head loud as fuck 
Do that shit double for anybody that doubted us 
caterpillar butterfly shit 
them jewels from the struggle them shits priceless 
real niggas know you gotta grissle for ya goals 
Had to get it out the mud hustler guerilla mindset 
Theory practice theory nigga learn from journey 
Like the story of Santiago yeah the Universe conspires yeah

Chorus:
Hand to hand 
Hand to mouth 
daily bread paper route 
Got a goal 
Plan it out 
Tryna to buy my mom a house 

Started off wit a ounce 
Man Man lookin' out
Trappin out my mama house 
Tryna buy my mom a house

NE$$ x Baby J New York, New York

In a music scene swamped with sex, drugs and opulence '21st Century Blues' fills a space currently missing in hip hop, showing both struggles of the young Black man trapped in the system and the opportunities and hopes of the future that could be.
