"Life" lyrics

Sneakymike

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

Been grinding all my life, "Rest in peace" to Nip
Niggas came up in the ghetto, we taking them field trips
Nigga gave you a clip, shoulda gave you a book
Selling drugs in the ghetto, now the youth all hooked

It took a lifetime to change, but we did that shit
And ain't no haters 'round here 'cause the shoe don't fit
And I done did everything 'round here but quit
I done came through the hood in everything that's fly

I done paid people rental I had dead in my eyes
But hustlers getting money, I was never deprived
A wise man can play crazy, but crazy can't play wise
Swear to God I been doing this all my life, life

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

Everything that I hoped for is gone now
Buried in the ground

Dealing with this pain, it take time to heal
Some niggas can't cope, so they drown in pills
They know you broke, so they let you sell your soul for a deal
But this the life 'round here, it's either kill or be killed

Keep that ratchet on you, nigga, this drill or be drilled
I do this shit for my kids, I can't let 'em miss a meal
Applied all the game that I learned in Cyrusville
Swear to God I'd never be a snake like Will

My gangster still intact, boy, 'cause caps get peeled
Grown-ups over here, we don't cry over spilled milk
My gangster intact, boy, 'cause caps get peeled
We grown-ups over here, we don't cry over spilled milk

Everything that I hoped for is gone now
Buried in the ground
Everything that I hoped for is gone now
Buried in the ground

I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I
