Joyner Lucas - Deserve lyrics

[Hook: Kyle Bent] We deserve this life, we deserve this life We deserve this life, we deserve this life We deserve this life, we deserve this life We deserve this life, we deserve this life [Verse 1: Joyner Lucas] Reminiscing back when a n***a used to get laughed at And now we laugh at you Remember when you used to talk about me? Well look where that got you, huh No worse feeling than someone that doubt you, huh 'Cus the people don't really give a f** about you, huh Then you start popping and everybody call you Even yo ex-b**h wanna be up all around you, huh Look, fall back (fall back) 'Cus they don't know about that like I'm drinking all the Henny, get mad right And forget what a n***a did last night I'm turned up and I got mad liquor I been a half-n***a since I been half-white And now I'm half man, half amazing Trying to stay true in this plastic nation We American, ain't we? They're ready to blame me Trying to get rich so to hell if it ain't me You know they just - they're ready to flame me 'Cus I ball like Garnett but I better than KG Two white hoes want a play day on it Ten Puerto Ricans and some Reggae Tony Ass so fat you could vacay on it I don't even need cla** 'cus my A game on and I'm ready to die Okay I'm ready to die Die for my beliefs Die for how to beef Die inside the streets Die and not believe Die they watching me To die I gotta leave Die for my life Die for my rights Die for my lord Die for my war Die for my story Die for my glory This is top 40, b**h I'm not sorry No, I'm not for the ride To my dead n***as, I said You could meet me at the top of the sky I can feel it on my soul, I know God is alive And the devil's a lie, sh** Okay the devil's alive Been ahead of my time since I was 9, sh** I was nice to the n***as in 96 [Verse 2: Kyle Bent] It's been a long time coming, now we up to something for real It's been a long time coming, trying to turn some honey, some mills And trust me this ain't happen over night Had to feel them struggles 'fore we see the highs Knew if I got the chance I'd turn this to a heist Had to steal the moment, couldn't pay the price And I wasn't thinking twice - listen I been working for a better life Remember waking in the dead of night That was my next plan, next plan Can't stand the fact that we ain't living right Head filled with problems like we living lice Times were dirty like their issues mixed with Sprite But I always knew my future still was bright (Always knew my future still was bright) We some chandeliers been in shambles but I persevere Life's a gamble, take a chance and roll a pair Of some dice, break the ice like polar bears We gon' own the year, we gon' break the surface We gon' switch the plans, we gon' make them nervous It's a new religion, we gon' change the sermon We gon' wake them up, we gon' raise the curtain Show them what's been lurking I been learning Now being myself is therapeutic Crazy how much people out here really lucid Trying to be somebody that they isn't used to Understand it can't be replicated and the story you living is Hella crucial Ain't nobody in this world could ever do you Ain't nobody in this world that's better suited, baby [Hook: Kyle Bent] We deserve this life, we deserve this life We deserve this life, we deserve this life We deserve this life, we deserve this life We deserve this life, we deserve this life
