What if life was simple as a hug?
What if my partner wasn't
What if our parents actually
Another black suit, another black suit
Police happy to see another black shoot
Crying cause I'm the only son
that she got now that he's gone
And we didn't have this rap shit,
You telling me if we couldn't shoot a ball
Our lives still got shooting involved
that winter for new beginnings
My father started his business
and traded family for riches
You telling me that my auntie
would still have a house to live in
But fuck it this is life,
deal with it or get dealt with
I'm in my room smokin' alone
Some days the sun's hard to face
Dad tongs, the sun wears his face
But look close to see the heart of a lion
Fixin' stones, killin' damage,
my bones harder than iron
170 pounds with the walk of a giant
Throw the fire in a pot for value,
All of my demons come to life
Is lost in the darkness of the night
Why should I kill myself for you?
you let me die inside for you
I used to be friends with never left?
didn't come with regrets?
I think that fame's a precursor to death
The misunderstood are always
dead before they understand
chop a milligram, draw a pentagram
Liquor and vomit on my converse
Bright lights and packed concerts
And right next to the gun
Are plastic orange bottles of peer pressure
And I'm ready to cave, I live in the cage
when I'm the one needing saved?
48 hour days on this fast lane living
no Jeremy Pitt, but listen
It's better to burn out than fade away
I felt the same until I saw
what if tomorrow the only way
I could spoil it was dying
Started crying then popped the value,
Turned all that it's worth
All of my demons come to life
is lost in the darkness of the night
Why should I kill myself for you?
You let me die inside for you
So what you do when the cop lights
turn into a stage and a spotlight
And everyone around you starts
to hate cause you got right
And feeling titled like I'm
supposed to stop living my life
Well this ain't Tupac, this ain't M -Show
This that C -Town 19 double X rep show
here's a ticket to the next
