Trenches Lyrics by Mizzy Mack

Colors

2019

{Intro}
Let me talk to all the hustlers worldwide

{Chorus}
If you in the trenches, keep your chin up (chin-up)
If you in the trenches, keep your head up (head up)
If you in the trenches, gotta learn how to move
If you in the trenches, got to learn what to do
Watch the snakes and birds
Tryna keep in you zoo
The trenches, not wild
Man it's really beautiful
I swear I love the trenches
Cause it taught me how to move
If you in the trenches, keep your chin up (chin-up)
If you in the trenches, keep your head up (head up)
If you in the trenches, gotta learn how to move
If you trenches, got to learn what to do

{Verse}
Uh, Pain from the memories
I’ll probably never lose, Winter jackets slim
I barely had some shoes cops all around the hood
Looking to accuse, some young black men
That don’t really got the tools
Put the job app in ain’t calling for interviews
Damn
My mom, got a loan just to buy some clothes
And makes ends meats
Make chicken, stretch for weeks
Put buckets over leaks
I was never in the streets, I played the classroom
But had homies, three heads to a bedroom
I could understand, why you don’t have a plan
Bathing in cold water, your niggas is dripping
I feel it, just listen, I peeped I’m different
They keep us ignorant, disregard pigment
Uh, yeah
Okay
One thing for sure, two things for certain
The pain gone shape, in future
While you hurting, taking, a moment just to breath
Can’t keep my mind my ease
Chicken gizzards, from chinks, Is all I use to eat
We in a food desert, why you think she caught disease?
Cable on and off, I learned to do without TV
Uh
Took the wisdom from the streets
And mix the smart from the books
And I cop from thrift, and I went and made a look
Plant the seed the grown, and patience all it took
Look at mizzy now, on the 45th floor
Look at my views, now bout what you say
Bout how you move, diamonds and chains
Really for fools, building some wealth
Supplying some schools
When I did ever go back on my word
Call me the best, but I been through worst
Swear I’m just lucky, I dipped through the hearse
Learn to look forward, not live in reverse
Listen to wisdom, I shed on this verse
Never thought that I was special
But I knew that I could soar
My brother told me anything you want
Is truly really yours, I don’t have no limitations
I'm floating in heaven, looking for a nice angel
While dodging birds, cause woman
Gone temp like an intern
My last woman kept me humble
Make sure I wouldn’t fumble
Keep my focus, like a tunnel
Vision, come piece by piece
Unfolding like a puzzle

{Chorus}
If you in the trenches, keep your chin up (chin-up)
If you in the trenches, keep your head up (head up)
If you in the trenches, gotta learn how to move
If you in the trenches, got to learn what to do
Watch the snakes and birds
Tryna keep in you zoo
The trenches, not wild
Man it's really beautiful
I swear I love the trenches
Cause it taught me how to move
If you in the trenches, keep your chin up (chin-up)
If you in the trenches, keep your head up (head up)
If you in the trenches, gotta learn how to move
If you trenches, got to learn what to do
