Life We Live

In this life that we living I pray I make it to the end
There ain't no other option it's either death or the pen
You went against the grain and it hurt me I can't pretend
And once you cross that line there ain't no tryna make amends
Yeah I still remember what momma told me as a kid
Like you ain't really got no friends
Cuz people really shady
I can't let 'em play me
I got a lot of change
But I never let it change me

And I ain't ever switched up
I just got my chips up
I want that Aston Martin in the driveway with that Benz truck
Ducking from the rollers I'm just tryna get my strips up
They tryna snatch me cuz I'm balling like it's pick up
Was locked down in that system with them people tryna hang me
Sitting in that cell with them people tryna tame me
But ima sit it down before I let a nigga play me
They say it's love but I'm feeling like they hate me
And I know that they envy cuz I'm way above the rest
Always wanting more cuz I'm so used to having less
Weight up on my chest like I got post traumatic stress
I'm losing breath trying not to cross my steps

In this life that we living I pray I make it to the end
There ain't no other option it's either death or the pen
You went against the grain and it hurt me I can't pretend
And once you cross that line there ain't no tryna make amends
Yeah I still remember what momma told me as a kid
Like you ain't really got no friends
Cuz people really shady
I can't let 'em play me
I got a lot of change
But I never let it change me
