Letra Could've been worse Juicy J

Could've been worse

You only get one hand to play in this game
You only get one chance to make your name
Focus on your cards, make sure they fall where they need to
Only a spade can run the table with the right moves
Worry 'bout the next man's cards will only hurt you
Keep your eyes in the light and give thanks
Remember somebody wishin' they was in your name
Remember somebody wish they had your change

You know it could've been worse
Your skin dark, they put you behind bars
You happy they didn't upgrad? the charge
You know it could've been wors?
Wife gone and it ain't cost a bitch
Divorce lawyers only plot to get rich
You know it could've been worse
Sittin' ducked when you sittin' in cars
They grazed him and left him with scars
You know it could've been worse
Shots fired in the club, he hit
They lucky that he didn't have a switch
'Cause it could've been worse
Could've been worse (Been through a lot)
You know it could've been worse (Crazy)
Could've been worse (Struggle)
I stayed in the church
Praised God 'cause it could've been worse

No matter what happens, it could be worse
You could be on your back in a box inside a hearse
Why you complainin' 'bout what you ain't got?
At least you not spendin' twenty-three hours on lock
Even with this money, your problems ain't ever lettin' up
People cross their own family out to get an extra cut
Mane, these record labels layin' off executives
Now they gotta get out here and hustle like the rest of us
Niggas used to tell me that I couldn't make it work with rap
Now it costs a house in Hollywood to send their verses back
If I ever fall, nigga, I better make certain that
I'm landin' on my feet, it don't matter if the surface flat
They ain't livin' them raps, you pull them curtains back
See these rap niggas is clowns, this shit a circus act
Young nigga came home, he beat a murder rap
Next day he died from a Percocet

It could've been worse
Your skin dark, they put you behind bars
You happy they didn't upgrade the charge
You know it could've been worse
Wife gone and it ain't cost a bitch
Divorce lawyers only plot to get rich
You know it could've been worse
Sittin' ducked when you sittin' in cars
They grazed him and left him with scars
You know it could've been worse
Shots fired in the club, he hit
They lucky that he didn't have a switch
'Cause it could've been worse
Could've been worse (Been through a lot)
You know it could've been worse (Crazy)
Could've been worse (Struggle)
I stayed in the church
Praised God 'cause it could've been worse (Yup)
