"DEAD OR ALIVE" lyrics

Woke up this morning, I prayed for the bad
'Cause I came through the fire, thank God I survived
I done been in the jungle so long, it made me real strong
God gave me the heart of a lion
Gotta watch for these liars they'll throw you in fire
Some people don't care if you dead or alive
I can see the animosity in their eyes
'Fore it get deadly, God take away my pride
Switch up my flows like I switch up my clothes
Thankin' the Lord that he made me, I'm chose
I grew up from the concrete like a rose
I grew up where it wasn't sweet: à la mode
Jumped out the whip, let's go
We destined for more, we ballin' let's run up the score
They smile at my face, don't know why
I pay it no mind, can't fool with these snakes on the road

God whatever you want, I want all of it
God whatever you want, I want all of it
God whatever you want, I want all of it
I don't wanna be labeled as counterfeit
I see evil is back on the prowl again
God I want you to come in my heart again
I've been lost if I'm bein' so honest

Yeah, yeah, okay, okay
I feel like NK, "City We Became"
That's by Jemisen, we stuck in a race
Like rats in a pen, I gotta keep faith
This stress I ignored it for like ten years straight
I hope I'm not too late, I got no time to waste
I been down way too long, wanna see better days
Man, why does it feel like I'm caught in a maze?
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh
I needed someone, tell me where were you at?
You told me that you'd always be there
Don't know why you put them lies in my head
I just got free, left all a mess
I fight for the best and they fight for the rest
Light shinin' like my ice in the sun
Who said a child of God can't be blessed?
Woke up this morning, I prayed for the best
'Cause I came through the fire, thank God I survived
Been in the jungle so long, it made me real strong
God gave me the heart of a lion
Watch for these liars that throw you in fire
Some people don't care if you dead or alive
I can see the animosity in their eyes
'Fore it get deadly, God take away my pride

God whatever you want, I want all of it
God whatever you want, I want all of it
God whatever you want, I want all of it
I don't wanna be labeled as counterfeit
I see evil is back on the prowl again
God I want you to come in my heart again
I've been lost if I'm bein' so honest

Yeah, yeah
God whatever you want, I want all of it
God whatever you want, I want all of it
God whatever you want, I want all of it
I don't wanna be labeled as counterfeit
I see evil is back on the prowl again
God I want you to come in my heart again
I've been lost if I'm bein' so honest
