Can’t Be Life

This can't be life
It gotta be more
This can't be life
It gotta be more
It gotta be more
It gotta be more
Single mother 2 brothers
And I'm da oldest
Hustled in the coldest
First down bubble where the pole is
Streets playing for keeps better focus
Switch phones think the law on us
Broke it down and bagged it up in 4 corners
Counting dirty money what that Caine do
2 pair of thermals under the rain suites
A pint a brown help the pain through
I fought niggas and cases with the same crew
Turf baby blood on my shirt baby
I lost some close friends this shit hurt baby
Jail visits and collect calls
Burpees and dips help knock the stress off
Youngin popping pills filled with fentanyl
War time can't afford to take ya vest off
This can't be life it's gotta be more
If it's you or me then it's gotta be yours
Fresh pair of ones feel like some Diors
White papers help lighting the cough
Even back then was getting it soft
Rain sleet snow been getting it off
Did some level 5 was stuck in them walls
Never lost hope was fighting regardless
Ain't taking no pleas stay away from the fleas
Praying that my sons stay away from them streets
Talking at my daughters be giving me peace
But I still keep it in me right here in my fleece
A lot of hard days even harder to sleep
My Number ain't the same I'm harder to reach
Aroma from da Cain be stronger then bleach
Turning up da flame controling da heat
It's either death or jail we living a curse
Never shot back I was shootin it first
Before I clocked in I was moving da work
Way before za we was moving the dirt
My youngin Shaan died I followed the hurse
Just Stearing at the grave while I talk to the dirt
When jerl Mac pass shit hit me the worse
Eyes full of tears when I entered the church
Neck full of diamonds help cover the hurt
Seen so much pain might need me a perc
Might sip me some lean just me and the team
All this dirty money from getting em clean
Rinsing dirty from getting it cleaned
Just rinsing dirty money we getting it clean
It gotta be more it can't be life
