Evil Ebenezer - Be Somebody lyrics

HOOK (Snak) This my life homie I'm still living Never getting back all the time I've given Seen good times seen things get ugly Trying to get up trying to be somebody (Evil) This is my life homie I'm still livin' Used to be the underdog now I've risen That's one thing that you can't take from me We're out here trying to be somebody VERSE 1 (Snak) Alone in thought always stuck in my head It's like looking for the green but you're stuck at the red Feels like life is just a dream and I'm tucked in the bed I can't believe I'm still alive and I ain't f**ed up or dead I was young and cold duckin the patrol Never done what I was told f**in spun outta control But now I got a hold and I'm gunnin for the gold I can run my own lane but I prefer the whole road I can't stop it I chose my route Keep clear from gossip just close your mouth You gotta open your ear and hear yourself And the only thing you should fear is fear itself Nobody's stopping you from being your best When your life gets too dirty clean the mess Up late smoking fifth don't need the rest Till the very last breath f**in leaves my chest (HOOK) VERSE 2 (Evil) I'm still living everyday is a blessing I lost my direction but I always kept pressing Fought thru the depression the drama and the tension Hoping I would see a better man in my reflection Searching for perfection lost in the vanity Forgot who I was and everything that I planned to be The hardest thing is to believe in yourself When you spent so many cold nights screaming for help And that's the real truth but from me to you Listen to yourself and never mind what the others do Cuz people are always gonna try to bring you down But you gotta rise above it keep swinging for the crown And no matter what you always gotta keep faith Keep all the cameras rolling like this is your last tape Like it's your last chance to show them all that you're great So don't ever back down and don't ever play it safe (HOOK)
