Life Ain't Free

Every night I say my prayer
I thank my Lord and savior
Protected me from danger
And kept me away from strangers

In the bible it says, heya
Always gotta show love to neighbours
By the kid that was born in a manger
And evil starts from pursuit of paper

I apologize, if I got my eyes strictly on the prize
I just want my slice, don't want tell no lies
I seen all my guys stack a bunch of pies
Swiping left and right, that's they 9 to 5

From when I was five, they just said "Survive"
School is key to life, I just broke the lock
Now I feel alive, now I feel the drive
Cash don't buy a smile, I want expensive frowns

Tough beginnings, with the pressure on
Diamonds in my chest, and they beating like a metronome
Never on, any list, rookie or a veteran
I just am the lesser known King till I weather storms

That just mean I reign, under rain or cleary blue
Mystical told me get the money, see the paper view
I'm a be a boss on the bass with a pay-per-view,
You gon' be a shadow in shade, with a shady view

A&Rs tell me it's potential, but it's just that
Potential be the difference for my heir, so I must stash
Ace Hood told me, for your dreams gotta trust that
Gotta hustle hard hustle hard, no pun, no cap

And I, I've always known my part
I'm riding in the city that never got nowhere to park
Lower down the music just to listen to my heart
And this is how it starts

Life ain't free, life ain't free
Life

This life ain't cheap
Even every breath costs energy, costs energy
Even death ain't free
You just not the one paying heaven's fee, paying heaven's fee

All eyez on me,
Anything I say can be weaponry, can be weaponry
And the wolves don't sleep
If I ever slip, they'll be shredding me, they'll be shredding me

This life ain't cheap
Even every breath costs energy, costs energy
Even death ain't free
You just not the one paying heaven's fee, paying heaven's fee

All eyez on me,
Anything I say can be weaponry, can be weaponry
And the wolves don't sleep
If I ever slip, they'll be shredding me, they'll be shredding me

J'ai prévu d'être le gagnant, de toute confrontation
Toujours, il y a des morts vivants, ont laissé mourir leurs passions
J'ai prévu me débarrasser, faux amis qui se cachaient
Souvent derrière les buissons comme les serpents prêts à cracher

J'ai prévu me get de l'argent pour m'investir dans mes plans
Quoique je suis toujours endetté des bêtises que j'ai fais avant

J'ai prévu me get une cadi, ride dans les streets de ville marie
A côté il y a ma Jasmine, dans le coffre, mon tapis magique
Putain mais que j'étais ravi
Mais la vie n'est pas gratuite

This life ain't cheap
Even every breath costs energy, costs energy
Even death ain't free
You just not the one paying heaven's fee, paying heaven's fee

All eyez on me
Anything I say can be weaponry, can be weaponry
And the wolves don't sleep
If I ever slip, they'll be shredding me, they'll be shredding me
