Life Battle
[Intro]
Yo, it's like this
[Verse 1]
It's a battle with the brain that I have that constantly wants to spit flames at your ass
Waking up every day with no cash, just focused on laying perpetual dope tracks
I've been cursed with a hypomanic bipolar polarity slowly tearing me out the seams with high-minded antics
I don't need drugs, I just need to understand it, dedicated years of my life to overcome the damage
I can't work any normal nine to five
I give respect to the people I see doing it to survive
I always end up snapping, losing my cool 'cause they nagging like I ain't appreciated for thе bullshit I'm dragging
My ass through every day just to make it happеn
Just for a little bit of cash, and then I'm back in the same shithole
At the end of the week, I think my motivation's lacking
Plus I got too many responsibilities that I'm packing
Taking care of a pitbull and a Chinese water dragon
On top of that, I'm tryna get my electric back in action
Bringing the gas in the rap, but there's no food in my cabinets
I got a high metabolism, I turn rude if I ain't snacking
But I'm still gonna make it, no car, ain't even complaining
'Cause God gave me legs, I can walk to my destination
I wake up every day and make my bed like I'm supposed to
I spent ninety dollars on this comforter, the most I can do is
[Hook] (x2)
Appreciate the way that I live, it's my life
You only get one life to live, so live it right
I won't get drug into the abyss of all the hype
Whoever said that life isn't hard just isn't right
[Post-Hook]
Ohh, just isn't right
Ohh, just isn't right
Ooh, just isn't right
Ohh, just isn't right
[Verse 2]
Yo, I don't choose when I go to sleep, time chooses it
I'm usually watching movies before I am snoozing
It's the only thing that calms my mind, so I use it
As a zen relaxation method, my mind's used to it
They say "Why don't you try taking melatonin?"
Hell fucking no, man, I don't like taking pills, it's all unnatural
"So?" and if something's natural, it happens by itself
It doesn't need man-made products to give it help
The only thing I take is multivitamins for my health
And go outside and do pull-ups on the bar that I made myself
Lifting dumbbells in my room until I felt
The burn in my arm's getting hot enough to melt
Then it's back into the lab or the studio labyrinth
Producing lyrics so elaborate and vicious, but I have to vent
I can't do it physically, I'll end up in a hazardous
Situation, then go into prison over my actions, there's
Nothing I can do to improve it, I'm just imagining
How things would've been different if I didn't have to stab them in
And doing it through my lyrics, keeping it cool when I got mad at them
And killing 'em verbally, now I can't because I'm trapped within
A cage, locked away as I rot for days
It's the thought of separating a single razor from the blade
Comes into play, but I'll never take my life, so I pray
Continue writing inspirational lyrics upon the page
And try to overcome society's sick plays
Switchblade their heart, open it up like a dish tray
And place potent hope in it, I'm hoping that I make a change
But if not, I'ma still stay true to the game
Of life, 'cause the game of life doesn't fucking play
You'll be tucked away in the garbage for another day
I say "Brother, hey, run your ass to be another way
It's time to get up out of the gutter, brush yourself off, andale"
Andale, todo, the red cape is up in your way
Don't let it distract you, just slash through and rage
On every evil demon in your life 'til they evade
Now you're feeling the inspiration that's coming from DNA
Guess what? You got the DNA up in your system too
Listen, dude, I ain't no different from you, you can rip it too
You can flip through the game, embarrass 'em, Skip 2 My Lou
AND1, and two, cross 'em over then you shoot
Buzzer shot, right through the net
Life is a test, you just won it, now it's time to collect
Your experience, put it up into your mind for the rest of time
Your mind is the best weapon, you find it - you're set
I know 'cause mine is the way the rhyming method I wreck
Off a second of breath, I can leave you resting for breath
You might get to thinking DNA is an extraterrestrial
See y'all, I'm hopping up in my ship then I left
Now I'm back again, attacking 'em with lyrical acronyms
And sending 'em spinning then murder 'em, I'ma diminish 'em
Finish 'em, fatality, I'm killing my nemesis
Now tell me this isn't the pinnacle you always reminisce, uh
[Hook] (x2)
Appreciate the way that I live, it's my life
You only get one life to live, so live it right
I won't get drug into the abyss of all the hype
Whoever said that life isn't hard just isn't right
[Post-Hook]
Ohh, just isn't right
Ohh, just isn't right
Ooh, just isn't right
Ohh, just isn't right
