This Can't Be Life |
Single mom I was raised by her, in a place where the hate triumphed |
Half white, half Latin, so my inner conflict was a race riot |
She said I’d never be shit, said I’d die young, said I’d end up in a precinct |
Where the cops wanna see us dead, now they only looking for a reason |
Uh, now I’m in the four seasons feet kicked up on the balcony looking at the |
city lights |
Thinking of the broads that I did so wrong, now, I was so focused on getting |
right |
Put them in a cab and I put them in a song, uh huh |
I don’t know if she got style cause I only seen her in a thong |
It’s a life I lead, no, my life don’t lead me |
Yeah, and I don’t need love, and my love don’t need me |
Yeah, that’s co-dependent, coulda end up as a co-defendant |
Coulda spent months in a coldest cell because a code of silence is a code of |
ethics |
Where I’m from, everybody sold drugs, uh huh |
We don’t wanna die young, and we wanna grow up, uh huh |
And my homie just OD’ed, had to see it online, no one told me |
Right, I ain’t know he was a dope fiend with kilos in his arm tryna play it off |
lowkey |
poking his vein, when I’m back home now it won’t be the same |
Tryna find hope in the rocks like looking for a teardrop soaked in the rain |
Nothing changes, hate from love or is it love from strangers? |
Said I’m living on the edge, I just hope it’s sharp enough for me to cut the |
chains |
Yeah, and this can’t be life, and this can’t be |
And this can’t be life, and it can’t be |
We deserve more than that, uh huh |
Gotta make this right, yeah |
Yeah, and this can’t be life |
Yeah, and this can’t be life, and it can’t be |
Yeah, and this can’t be life, and it can’t be |
We deserve more than that, uh huh |
Gotta make this right, yeah |
Yeah, and this can’t be life |
And lately I’ve been praying, amen |
Tryna box with God but my heart is too heavy to make the weigh in now |
I’m staying patient, in the study, recording |
I’m on credit for them hours, knowing that I can’t afford it |
And my cousin started snorting shit, my little sister pregnant, damn |
I told her to abort it, since I said it, I regret it now |
When my niece and nephew enter this world, and it’s gonna be guilt |
When I look into they beautiful eyes and I think of the time I said she should |
kill them |
I’m not perfect, I don’t pretend to be, I’m my worst fucking enemy |
Cause I gave my ex’s all they best sex and they worst memories |
But still they just can’t seem to leave me alone |
That’s a cycle of dysfunction man, that shit just go and go |
We just kids from broken homes, can’t fix shit, struggling with love and |
addiction |
And all the months that we never paid rent on time, landlord threatening |
eviction |
When them doors close though, you just gotta break through, right |
You don’t wanna look back with regrets, stressed out 'bout what you ain’t do |
Yeah, and this can’t be life, and this can’t be |
And this can’t be life, and it can’t be |
We deserve more than that, uh huh |
Gotta make this right, yeah |
Yeah, and this can’t be life |
Yeah, and this can’t be life, and it can’t be |
Yeah, and this can’t be life, and it can’t be |
We deserve more than that, uh huh |
Gotta make this right, yeah |
Yeah, and this can’t be life |
