It's my life
Yeah the only one that
I'll ever know
Feeling extra low
Please let me go
Hold on no
It's my life
Yeah the only one that
I'll ever know
And it stressed me so
Oh God bless me soul
Hold on
Wether it's the projects
or a trailer park mess
Raggedy the apartment complex
With a stressed out single mom
sitting on the steps
Waiting on the mailma
looking for a chec
Boys on the corner
pushing out the chest
Questing for anything
that resembles respect
Young girls swinging their hair
with every step
Looking for affection
settling for sex
Bodies decorated
with tattoos and chains
Trying to put armor
between you and pain
Wood grain steering wheel
the bass bang
But not enough to drown out
the hatred in your brai
The only out is smoking out
Get lean get wet get meth
get tore down
Cause who the hell
would want to stick around
Put me in a haze
I ain't never coming out
It's my life
Yeah the only one that
I'll ever know
Feeling extra low
Please let me go
Hold on no
It's my life
Yeah the only one that
I'll ever know
And it stressed me so
Oh God bless me soul
Hold on no
They just wanna get you
in the system
stick you into prisonL
ist you in the military ship
you to the desert
Pigs don't exist for you
to make a decent living
But we got three illegal wars
to shoot the pigs
Keep stressing marvels
and personal decisions
Tell me what's marvel
about these conditions
Who decided you don't got
enough to teach children
Stay spending billions
on stadiums and prisons
How many roles
can folks really choose
When you're oppressed
only three lead to you
First one is follow the rules
and stay in school
Be the square dude
that's a society approves
Get a little job
or a shitty apartment
Or a sub-par mortgage
in a failing house margin
The after your life
dedication and hardship
You died just as poor as you
was when you started
Fuck that
what's up with the second option
You could always hit the corner
and try to get it popping
Get fast guap
when you're out
dropping and clocking
But chances are that
you'll probably die violent
The best hope that
you got is getting nada
End up with a job
in a prison metal shop
They ain't paying
nothing but thre
Don't you know
that's the biggest hustle they got
Or door three
you can get on that welfare
But they ain't trying to help
They'll put you in hell there
Give you just enough
So you're not gonna starve
And constantly harass you
while you're looking for a job
Do lock up and someone
that got you to punch a clock
And they found out about i
and your check is getting dot
Can't win for losing
dehumanizin
You'll never get caught up
You caught up in a cycle
It's my life
Yeah the only one that
I'll ever know
Feeling extra low
Please let me go
Hold on no
It's my life
Yeah the only one that
I'll ever know
And it stressed me so
Oh God bless me soul
Hold on no
