Tomorrow not promised

Hasan 1980 (Peoria)

I’m so glad tomorrow not promised
All the stress I been going through
What good is a cell phone if I can’t get in touch with you
God said you have not cause you asked not and I know that’s not the truth
Cause I been praying to be your husband every since I laid eyes on you
I don’t have money
I only got one friend
My family don’t even fool with me but on the internet I’m the man
Dating a waste of time cause every body lying
The half truth not the whole truth so it’s still telling lies
No morals no character just actors on a stage
From genesis to revelation it’s a lot of words on every page
I’m so glad tomorrow not promised
I hope it all ends today
I’ve been trying so hard to make it and I’ve been struggling every day
