[Verse 1] Here I go again, I back out The drive way on Fridays I blackout Too many bars I know they only talk about my scars But I doubt they ever see the pain when riding in these cars That I'm in the backseat of 15 feet up my ambition they feed up Somebody gotta keep me leveled headed Eyes beat up In middle school for Everything while I read up I wonder what my hometown would Be like without a leader sh** most of them ain't got Change for the meter Tell your home girl I wish I could meet her But I got a girl at home and I've been working on Bettering our relation-sh** It frustrate me when they tell me to Invest my time into all these hoes They just hoes I've seen them on the internet a million times fold But they're tryin' put me in a blindfold I'm trying to bring light to em Light to em... I'm tryin to bring life to em Why they always giving me advice about ya know.... like my principles and sh** I'm doing like... I like don't Know, f** em' [Bridge 1] What's a man without some principles to stand by A good girl beat the bad b**h by a land slide They'll never know about your life through a three minute song So when you gotta tell em leave ya alone Don't take it wrong [Chorus] They always try to f** with me They always try to f** with me I'm on the interstate road doing 150 With all the memories that stuck with me I'm just trying to live life... I'm just trying to live life Everybody got their 2 cent for me but never do sh** for me Y'all can keep yo change [Verse 2] Coming up from a seed to a grown human bein' That is a blessin' An opportunity to make cheese That's a blessin' All this hatin' on me that's depressin' Like damn What the f** did i do to deserve a brick comin' straight through my window Somebody riddle me that Lately been rollin' round literally strapped Like somebody gonna come around givin' me daps Pull out the gat blat, blat Another story cut short man My homies be like, "What for man?" sh** hope my funeral more alive than usually You could feel the energy my soul brang It's like i get on every track with the soul train Now a days they don't wanna hear you rap without the gold chain So i pull out the one my father left for me And try to give 'em a taste of my story His last words were [Bridge 2] What's a man without some principles to stand by A good girl beat the bad b**h by a landslide They never know about your life through a 3 minute song So when you gotta tell 'em leave ya alone Don't take it wrong [Chorus] [Verse 3] They probably think my life was a walk in the park They don't see the pain that i shed for the art They don't see the long days i was there in the dark Lights cut off, gas bill too And that's shut off I'm sick of takin' cold a** showers I swear that sh** gets to your core It's like what the f** are you doin' this for if you ain't got no power This rap sh** is like a job that got no hours If you ain't got relevant buzz going all the time I know some under ground cats gon' hate me because i signed But its like what should i have done Let my momma grind forever I'm just try'na spend time together Pay the bills when we dine together Make her pockets so straight that she fine forever And if y'all can't feel that Then what the f** are we talkin' for b**h What's a man without some principles to stand by A good girl beat the bad b**h by a landslide They never know about my life in this 5 minute song So when you an*lyze leave me alone And get gone They always try'na f** with me But i'll never let 'em f** with me I'm on the interstate road doin' 150 With all the memories that stuck with me I'm just try'na live life (live life, word up) (x4) This for those who got they two cents for me But don't ever wanna do sh** for me Y'all can keep yo' change [Outro] Quit f**in' callin' my phone Askin' for favors and sh** Textin me about how we dont chill no more and sh** Give me direction, ya know Sayin' don't forget what you came from And make sure you f** with me when you're back in town and sh** Or you never got time for me no more You different now and sh** Man, i'm just try'na live life
