Die Young

Oh lil' baby, someone will pray
Oh lil' baby, there's no other way, yeah

Life so short when I was younger
I ain't even think we could die young
I see my partner die young
I see my niggas die young
That's why I can't trust nobody
I gotta ride with one
One call, my niggas gon' slide with one
They pushed up with three now it's minus one

Shit crazy, I'm out here tryna find a way to survive
Cold world, I need advice
Hands up, I'm free tonight
Don't say you know how I feel
'Cause you don't know how I feel inside
I said don't say you know how I feel
'Cause you don't know how I feel inside

Life so short when I was younger
I ain't even think we could die young
I see my partner die young
I see my niggas die young
That's why I can't trust nobody
I gotta ride with one
One call, my niggas gon' slide with one
They pushed up with three now it's minus one

Shit crazy, I'm out here tryna find a way to survive
Cold world, I need advice
Hands up, I'm free tonight
Don't say you know how I feel
'Cause you don't know how I feel inside
I said don't say you know how I feel
'Cause you don't know how I feel inside

I just wanna know
Why it's so hard to survive
I just wanna know
Why it's so easy to die

I just wanna know
Why it's so hard to survive
I just wanna know
Why it's so easy to die
Even with your hands up

What you know about your homie getting shot
And you gotta pick your mans up?
Man, what you know about screaming black lives matter
'Cause police keep shooting your friends up?

What you know about getting pulled over
Scared of getting shot gotta hold up a camera?
And none of this shit gon' change
Unless we get together and stand up

This world we living in crazy
In this world we living
My momma gotta pray for me every time I leave
Why the fuck you stood on my nigga neck
When he told you he can't breathe?
We sick of this shit
That's why Collin Kaepernick was on his knees

I'm not supposed to be begging for my life to police
When y'all supposed to protect me
We lost a lot of lives to the streets
We miss y'all daily
I'm young and I gotta lot of shit I wanna get done
Check out the checklist, baby
So I don't wanna- what?
Die young

Life so short when I was younger
I ain't even think we could die young
I see my partner die young
I see my niggas die young
That's why I can't trust nobody
I gotta ride with one
One call, my niggas gon' slide with one
They pushed up with three now it's minus one

Shit crazy, I'm out here tryna find a way to survive
Cold world, I need advice
Hands up, I'm free tonight
Don't say you know how I feel
'Cause you don't know how I feel inside
I said don't say you know how I feel
'Cause you don't know how I feel inside

Life so short when I was younger
I ain't even think we could die young
I see my partner die young
I see my niggas die young
That's why I can't trust nobody
I gotta ride with one
One call, my niggas gon' slide with one
They pushed up with three now it's minus one

Shit crazy, I'm out here tryna find a way to survive
Cold world, I need advice
Hands up, I'm free tonight
Don't say you know how I feel
'Cause you don't know how I feel inside
I said don't say you know how I feel
'Cause you don't know how I feel inside

I just wanna know
Why it's so hard to survive
I just wanna know
Why it's so easy to die

I just wanna know
Why it's so hard to survive
I just wanna know
Why it's so easy to die
Even with your hands up
