Ain’t Good Enough K-Rino

[Intro]
I feel for you homie
Been there

[Chorus]
Fell victim to the system 'cause the hood is tough
I could've raised up and went back to the cut
Tryna do it right, the old me I put it up
How can you win when your best ain't good enough?
Fell victim to the system 'cause the hood is tough
I could've raised up and went back to the cut
Tryna do it right, the old me I put it up
How can you win when your best ain't good enough?

[Verse 1]
He was fresh out the pen still in his prime
Changed his life for the better while he did his time
It's amazing how he was able too keep his mind
Came home started searching for a legal grind
Lost years mentally hard to digest
Had a woman on his side through the process
Brainstorming on some ideas, they plotted big
She agreed to hold him down until he got a gig
Month after month somebody forgot to tell him (What?)
It's hard to get a job once you a convicted felon
Accumulation of trepidation and frustration
Plus alot of dust collected on his application
He stayed honest straight up and down like 6 o'clock
And clicked yes in that "have you been convicted" box
Everything he try to do just seem to fall though
"Thank you sir, please don't call us, we'll call you"
