[Chorus: Malia Carter & Brandon Carter]
Oh oh oh, we all tryna live
Live a little bit longer!
Oh oh oh, we all tryna live
We're not gettin' younger, we're just gettin' older
Oh oh oh, we all tryna live
While days get shorter, and the nights get longer
Yet, we just tryna live
[Verse 1: Brandon Carter]
One step, two steps
Then you're walkin', then you're talkin', and you look back
Now you're grown, on your own
Takin' all these loans, now you're in debt
There is real and fake, like we are startin' a vendetta
There is many things in life, we're proud that we have made up
You'd skip to your bucket-list rather than your agenda
We still live in question like we're left in a dilemma
Either adapt or perish, or you'll fade in the next era
You dodge hate bullets, you put that vest to the test
I know what you've been through, I must pay my respects
You might marry the love of your dreams, with no need of regret
If that woman's an angel, don't you say you're not blessed
What's the point of love, if you don't give what you get
Right now, I'm tellin' the story of life, know life can't be reset
Soon it'll be our time, and if your time is next
Pray for one last second, minute, hour, put in your final request
Cause in the days, weeks, months, and years it might come to an end
Mabuhay, vivere, vivir, live
Palaam, arrivederci, sayanara, goodbye
[Chorus: Malia Carter & Brandon Carter]
Oh oh oh, we all tryna live
Live a little bit longer!
Oh oh oh, we all tryna live
We're not gettin' younger, we're just gettin' older
Oh oh oh, we all tryna live
While days get shorter, and the nights get longer
Yet, we just tryna live
[Verse 2: Brandon Carter]
Everybody's hopin', but not everybody's potent
Everybody's wantin', but nobody's even workin'
Everybody's certain, yet nobody's got a purpose
Everybody's nearin', but don't even touch the surface
You'll learn you go to school, cause life is a test
I guess, you've guessed enough to be guessin' your life's guest
Music serves as my oxygen tank
Cut if off, you just have made a mistake
It has become your friend, and friend it's not what they think
See, you sit in a corner
Sure, you come off as a loner
Ask why y'all's friendship was over?
It just got closer and closer
Stages up, out, & over
Could've started out slower
Now she judges your persona
You told her you've changed, but you don't really show it
You'll look back, and soon you'll start to regret things
Your mind is in bad traffic, stuck, can't pa** 'em
There's really whack rappers, who keep talkin' smack, crap of, lack that of, bars that are trash, scrap 'em
You have been actin' grungy
Usually you're naturally, casually mastering something
I've been tryna live this life, but it's all gettin' muddy
Funny, I be judging, saying people don't chase their goals
But when it comes to me and mine, I always end up running away
Just gotta live, that's all it takes
There is some ups, downs, highs, lows, and different views
There is some wins, losses, goals I will pursue
Even though my album has been way overdue
You don't realize I'm still way over you
I'm a cement wall you ain't gon' break through
You can't complain about waiting, 'cause I'm waiting for you
We've all said stuff in our lives that we prolly regret
Anything trends, you can be alive or be dead
But I try not to let it get to me, after all I'm in your head
Just live for the moment
Live in the memories
All you gotta do is live
[Chorus: Malia Carter & Brandon Carter]
Oh oh oh, we all tryna live
Live a little bit longer!
Oh oh oh, we all tryna live
We're not gettin' younger, we're just gettin' older
Oh oh oh, we all tryna live
While days get shorter, and the nights get longer
There's only one way to live
