(Chorus) This life that I lead, that I lead, that I lead, that I lead kinda hard to believe This life that I lead, that I lead, that I lead, that I lead got some scars you can see (Verse One) Try to hide that feel but the heart pumps real Took em off my sleeves but they still wouldn't leave So I get it now I'm frigid you can call that freeze But my mind on ease and I chase that cheese But I'm down on earth and I found my worth Been a pa**ionate soul since my mom gave birth Good times came last bad times came first If you walked my shoes you could talk my blues But I stayed in tune battled with my wounds Had a smile at 6 had a frown by noon But I still can't lose I will always win I was hurt by 5, back on the grind by ten (Chorus) This life that I lead, that I lead, that I lead, that I lead kinda hard to believe This life that I lead, that I lead, that I lead, that I lead got some scars you can see (Verse Two) Some will call that luck, but it was destiny's child Now I'm all grown up I been here for a while Yeah I paid my dues, I'm in the black with the rap Spent a whole lotta time to hit the map with the rap Yeah I sacrificed love that's a heavy price Just to get it out the mud, missed the married life Wasn't travelin outta town or seeing baby showers Just a blessed songwriter working navy hours Never cast your pearls because of images Or be mad at the world and seeking vengeances Have a plan b and c to start up businesses And every book ever written was only sentences (Chorus) This life that I lead, that I lead, that I lead, that I lead kinda hard to believe This life that I lead, that I lead, that I lead, that I lead got some scars you can see
