This my life ima live how I want
Do what I can
Say what they won't
Move as I please
Told you hold me down ima provide for yo needs
Feed the soil water the plant how I'm protecting my seed
They say we living to die
Dying to live
Who coaching the youth
Don't lie to the kids
We don't glorify crime we just survive where we live
We got desensitized to it barely cried when they killed em
I pray for understanding nothing older than wisdom
More patience a virtue I been holding my britches
Almost quit a few times could've got cataclysmic
But my mojo back I'm handling business
Naw really like Hov had said
I am the business
Talks with my accountant they been counting me out
I don't know what that's about
Shit I stuck to the blueprint beyond reasonable doubt
And been at it 10 years it's just now getting clear
You show love you barely get it back this shit getting weird
You should vent more you rather lend an ear to yo peer
You should start thinking of other options the end getting near
You should start trusting in God to grab the wheel when you steer
Pray for discernment on decisions that you barely can make
You need more hobbies too many habits you can't break
An idle mind the perfect place for the devil to play
Tryna express through rhythm and words I barely get plays
I turned my heart away from wickedness I got evil ways
But it's a light that shine brightest on my darkest of days
I walk by faith not by sight I had to cover my eyes
It hurt to see you switch up on me but I wasn't surprised
20 years in the making
Most of it spent in the basement it's bout time I arise
The duality of man feeling like Jekyll and Hyde
Survivors guilt too many died but somehow I'm alive
Its my life I gotta live how I want
Do what I can
Say what they won't
Move as I please
I told her hold me down ima provide for yo needs
I feed the soil water the plant how I'm protecting my seed
They say we living to die
Dying to live
Who coaching the youth
Don't lie to the kids
We don't glorify crime we just survive where we live
We got desensitized to it barely cried when they killed em nigga
You show love you barely get it back this shit getting weird
You should vent more you rather lend an ear to yo
You should start thinking of other options end getting near
You should start trusting in God to grab the wheel when you steer nigga
