"Sometimes Dead Is Better" lyrics

Crawled out the coffin, I'm raisin' the stakes
Watch 'em all run when I step into place
Send you to hell if you step in my way
Can't build a life without blood on the blade
Crawled out the coffin, I kicked down the door
Walk in the room, let me settle the score
The chains of my past still clank like war
I did it all from my room, I don't need much more

Yeah, look at what I started
Really I had nothin' but I did it all regardless
No matter what I make, now I'ma treat it like an artist
Drop another tape, then I turn 'em to a carcass
Just a sad boy way back in 2018
So much darkness in my head, man, I was struggling to breathe
Music only way to vent so I was grindin' like a fiend
Made my struggles somethin' better, tryna live out all my dreams
Now I'm 28 and feelin' like a veteran
I remember suicidal thoughts what I was wrestlin'
Glad I never gave in to the pain that I was weatherin'
'Cause I've been gettin' older but the money never settlin'
Took the weight off of my soul like that, but I work too much
Every day's another step, that I take out the mud
I don't wait for the bag, I just take it and run
That's the way that I lap, overtake everyone

(Sometimes dead is better)
(But I don't wanna run from this)
(I'm still in love with this, yeah, yeah)

Crawled out the coffin, I'm raisin' the stakes
Watch 'em all run when I step into place
Send you to hell if you step in my way
Can't build a life without blood on the blade
Crawled out the coffin, I kicked down the door
Walk in the room, let me settle the score
The chains of my past still clank like war
I did it all from my room, I don't need much more
