T.I. - Live In The Sky Lyrics

[spoken:]
What's happening man this T.I.P. you kno I like to dedicate this song to anybody who every lost
Somebody, to the grave, to the streets, to the jail cell. I done been in situations where I done had to
Cope with all three you kno what I'm saying, I feel like the only thing haven't done die you kno... Just
Remember where you live while you here ain't half as important as where you gone live when you leave you
Kno what I'm saying

[Chorus:]
Life's up and downs they come and go... but when I die I hope I live in the sky... All my folks who
Ain't alive I hope they live in the sky... pray to God when I die that I live in the sky... It's true what
Goes around comes back you kno... So when I die I hope I love in the sky... All my folk who ain't survive may
They live in the sky... Tell God I wanna fly and let me live in the sky...

[Verse 1:]
My cousin Toot ain't have to die right in front of his son
And his wife- He lost his life struggling over a gun
Give a damn what he done, that my muthaf*ckin folk. and I love that nigga til death
That's no muthaf*ckin joke
I can feel my eyes filling, the lord is my witness
If I catch em, I'm a kill em, I made it my bizness
Back in the day you stayed in my bizness.
Taught me I didn't have to incorporate yay in my bizness
Coincedently that's why today you not with me
My cousin died ova some yay and I miss em
Plus he had his family out. let's say she the eye witness
But her boyfriend did the shooting judge gave her a life sentence
I heard that now I'm dressed up in all black
Shot up the whole apartments and still ain't brought back
The best friend I had in Jamel I lost that
I guess your death was a lesson in life it taught me that

[chorus]

[Verse 2:]
Who ever seen a nigga go to jail sleep til day two
Well that's how sick I was when Jay blew
Found outt he hard way that whating pour they was tooting
Over-dosed on heroin died at 22
If you ain't heard about
Daughter she smile just like you
So cute even resorts to violence like you
You kno you ya baby mama
Loose but ha what can you do
And I got 4 myself yep it's been a few
Now everything I do is for
King, messiah, deyjah, demani
Lord they all I got so please don't take em from me
From me standin in the Trap
With cory and sir kap
Laughin at the niggas who serve with no strap
Tell them niggas man
Ya'll Trippin with no map
Ya robbing ask to borrow my pistol ain't no hap
Me, you, the crew just fell out ova
Dough and a little crack
Never could apolygize cause you died that's why they saying...

[chorus]

[Verse 3:]
I bet you niggas thinking that I'm living it up
Til you see polices laughing as they pickin me up
Went from seeing how many bitches I can fit in the truck
To 3 hots and a cot is you kidding or what
F*ck how Many millions I got nigga so what if I'm hot
When I got prices on my head Feds rushing my spot
A million Haters want me dead force to carry my gat
But you a seven time felon wat you doing with dat
It's a catch 22 - either you lose or you lose
That's the way the game structured for real niggas to suffer
And I ain't never Been a busta, alway stood on my feet
Like a man prepared to take what ever coming for me
A pussy nigga Or polices with a warrant for me
I'm a "G" prepared to die for what's important to me
Look anybody in the Eye who say they want it with me
Put up the house and bet the odds ifit's coming from me
OG's say I need to Learn and be patient
You telling me with these seven years of probation
Pistol charges and a host of Other open cases
If niggas only knew the kind of time I was facing
I tried to keep to myself but Sometime I could'nttake it
Got 4 kids with smiles on they faces
Mean more to me than my crown and my bracelet
Take that away from me and my life is butt naked

[chorus]
