Life, what is it for real? I don't know.

Yo It's like hate taking over the whole world,

What is it over?

Suicide man that's the devil trying to control us,

They told us

But we didnt notice

The pain was sittin on they shoulders

The world is just to polar

They'd rather live in the solar

System got us hopeless, and focused on foreclosures

Wake up and smell the folgers

Obama bring home the soldiers

Osama, you owe us, the 9 11 was bogus

Now we right back at em

Say the world is our motive come on.

Hey wake up early in the streets of the block,

Streets of the block.

He posted up on the corner like a soldier

In the drill but he wouldn't stop

Living life in the battlefield, battlefield

Trying to survive every day and every night,

It's the same deal

Lifes strange (Lifes strange)

Times change (Times change)

But karma always finds the way

Stay strong (Stay strong)

Hold on (Hold on)

Don't let all your dreams fade away

Yeah life can beat you down

What goes it comes around

It's not how you hit the ground

It's how fast you get back up

And go,keep going

Sometimes it feels like I'm giving my life away

It gets hard, and harder

Happiness is worth the wait

Cause on my own is a better way!

Cause on my own is a better way!

A lot of mothers they just don't understand

(They just don't understand)

They think we're hard on our sons

But we gotta teach our boys how to be A man

They only know when they walk out the door

(When they walk out the door)

See we can show em how to fire,

But they gotta teach themselves how to reload

Cause unenployment is harder than its ever been

Sometimes it feels like i cant win

And even through all the rules keep changing

I'm stronger now than I was when I came in

Yeah life can beat you down

What goes it comes around

It's not how you hit the ground

It's how fast you get back up

And go, keep going

Sometimes it feels like I'm giving my life away

It gets hard, and harder

Happiness is worth the wait

Cause on my own is a better way!

Cause on my own is a better way!

Hey Hey going through the back streets

Like we got beef

Carnival for carnivores with the sharp teeth

They animalistic that's why we call the cops beast

We're on the hunt

Cause they're hungry for the dark meat

I'm rapping to my heart beat

Brain is the base

My heart is the drum,

Give the drum some

Promise of a better life is all I got to give

I ain't just trying to survive, I'm trying to live

Cause all I want is a better way, Hey

If you're not prepared the world can be so cold

All that you can do is your best and just hope

In time the truth will show

Just stick to what you know

Get a grip on something real and never let it go

And go, keep going

Sometimes it feels like I'm giving my life away

And it gets hard, and harder

Happiness is worth the wait

Cause all I want is A better day

Cause all I want is A better way

Go! Keep going

Sometimes it feels like I'm giving my life away

And it gets hard, and harder

Happiness is worth the wait

Cause all I want is A better day

Cause all I want is A better w
