Nia - Live lyrics

[Chorus: Nia & 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 Family-feuds, family-tithes, it's all the same vendetta You'd rather skip to your bucket-list than your own agenda We all live in question, this whole plot's been the dilemma Either adapt or perish or you'll fade in the next era Dodgin' hate bullets, put that vest to the test I know what you've been through, I must pay my respects Then you marry the love of your life that you eventually regret You are paintin' your own mural into tiny vignettes Life is art, you're the artist that creates the effects What's the point of love, if you don't give what you get 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, a final request 'Cause in the days, weeks, months, and years it might come to an end Mabuhay, viveré, vivir, live Au revoir, paalam, arrivederci, sayonara, goodbye [Chorus: Nia & 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' Everyone's a person, though some lack 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 guessing your guest Music serves as my oxygen tank Cut if off, you just have made a mistake It's become ya friend and friend it's not what they think See, you sit in a corner Sure you come off as a loner Ask why your friendship was over? It just got closer and closer, stages up, out, and over Could've started out slower, now she judges your persona Told her you've changed, but you don't really show it You'll back and soon you'll regret things I am in bad traffic, stuck, can't pa** 'em Any rapper can talk smack or have crap-of, lack that-of But which one of them actually take action? Usually you're naturally casually mastering something 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 this album has been way overdue Y'all don't realize he's still way over you! He's a cement wall you ain't gon' break through You can't complain about waitin' because he's 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 try not to let it get to you, after all I'm in your head Just live for the moment Live in the memories All you got to do is live [Chorus x2: Nia & 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
