作曲 : Durk Banks/Jermaine Cole/Lukasz Gottwald
Durkio told me he been on some positive shit, yeah, yeah
Lately, I just wanna show up and body some shit, yeah, yeah
Always been a lil' mathematician, lately it's cash I'm gettin'
Got me losin' count of these bags, I've been movin' too fast
Hard times don't last, 'member when cops harrassed
Talkin' out my ass, boy, you ain't shit but a bitch with a badge
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin' to keep me down (They been tryin' to keep me down)
All this time (All this time)
Never thought I would make it out (Never thought I'd make it out)
They couldn't break me, they couldn't break mе (No, no)
They couldn't take me, thеy couldn't take me (No)
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin' to keep me down (They been tryin' to keep me down)
I decided I had to finish, but the media called me a menace
I done sat with the mayor and politicians, I'm tryna change the image
You can't blame my past no more, I come from the trenches
Some said I'd never be a superstar, but I know I'm different (No, no, no)
I'm a voice, but the system ain't give me a choice
Know some people that's still undeployed
I know a felon who tryna get FOID
Child support your only support
For a visit, I'm goin' through courts
Went to jail, they was chainin' me up
And you know that I'm famous as ****
See how you gon' joke about stimulus
But they really had came in the clutch
I know some kid wanna hurt theyself
Stop tryna drugs, I refer to myself
Tryna better myself, tryna better my health but
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin' to keep me down (They been tryin' to keep me down)
All this time (All this time)
Never thought I would make it out (Never thought I'd make it out)
They couldn't break me, they couldn't break me (No, no)
They couldn't take me, they couldn't take me (No)
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin' to keep me down (They been tryin' to keep me down)
Yeah
First generation ghetto nigga
Cold world, hello niggas
Made it out the city with my head on straight
Niggas keep shootin', let the lead out
Young Jordan Peele, gotta get out
But the shit that I spit out
Is a cheat code like I'm facin' a RICO and how a nigga put a hit out
And another one, and, and another one
I got like a hundred of them
'Bout to lap niggas so they think they ahead of me, but I'm really in front of them
Now some of them fumblin' they they bags
****in' up the little crumbs that they had
A reminder to humble yourself, this shit could be gone in an instant
Me, I'm runnin' long distance
All pistons firin'
I be stuck between maybe retirin' and feelin' like I'm just not hittin' my prime
These days seein' rappers be dyin', way before they even gettin' they shine
I never even heard of lil' buddy
'Til somebody murdered lil' buddy
Now I'm on the phone, searchin' lil' buddy name
Got 'em playin' his tunes, all day in my room
Thinkin', "Damn, this shit is wicked, to get they name buzzin' some niggas just gotta go lay in a tomb"
And media thirsty for clicks
I got a new rule
If you ain't never posted a rapper when he was alive
You can't about him after he get hit
It's simple, it's the principle
On any tempo, I'm invincible
Don't even rap, I just vent to you
I rather that than an interview
Most days
**** 'em all like I'm goin' through a ho phase
Young nigga shoot out the whip like road rage
I pray all of my dawgs stay so paid
Is old age
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin' to keep me down (They been tryin' to keep me down)
All this time (All this time)
Never thought I would make it out (Never thought I'd make it out)
They couldn't break me, they couldn't break me (No, no)
They couldn't take me, they couldn't take me (No)
All my life (All my life)
They been tryin' to keep me down (They been tryin' to keep me down)
