| Livin' in vain
|
| They keep their eyes on us, wisen up
|
| Oh Lord, ain’t no escape
|
| That don’t apply to us
|
| Mmm, just when I lost all of my faith
|
| Always gotta find it out the hard way
|
| So numb, I can’t feel my face
|
| I be tryna block everyone out of my mind
|
| I’m black on both sides
|
| You can’t deny
|
| Anything a nigga do, I’m tellin' you
|
| No one made me
|
| 'Cause you the devil in disguise
|
| 'Til you prove me otherwise
|
| I can see the silver lines
|
| That lie in disguise
|
| In my zone, so I don’t even mind
|
| But I ain’t sleeping so don’t even try
|
| Man, you gon' have to look me in my eyes
|
| 'Cause it ain’t no way they takin' me alive
|
| Livin' in vain
|
| They keep their eyes on us, wisen up
|
| Oh Lord, ain’t no escape
|
| That don’t apply to us
|
| Look, why you spy on me, shot my energy
|
| Said you wouldn’t look, but I love the irony
|
| Windows opening and airin' out the heat
|
| Got weight on me, feel like I never feel a thing
|
| I lost gravity, too far out of reach
|
| Big shot caller, listen when I speak
|
| If you are not one of us
|
| I’ll leave you stuck up shit’s creek with no luck
|
| Lord, I admit, talk to God
|
| Real niggas don’t die, they multiply
|
| Prisoners, look at all I did but I still ain’t did enough
|
| Bitch, tell me where was you at when it was rough?
|
| Comin' from the dirty like the mud
|
| I been lied to, where the trust?
|
| I start a typhoon, feel the rush
|
| What you gon' do when it comes?
|
| Better hold that package tight when I deliver
|
| Thinkin' I love that drink so much I shot my liver
|
| See you can tie my shoes, but you won’t fit 'em, nigga
|
| I just want the glory, fuck the glitter
|
| Got a phone full of niggas that act like they my niggas
|
| I’ma paint it out so you can see the picture
|
| I been movin' around and stayin' hella busy (I'm goin')
|
| But you know I gotta push it to the limit
|
| Livin' in vain
|
| They keep their eyes on us, wisen up
|
| Oh Lord, ain’t no escape
|
| That don’t apply to us
|
| Ain’t no escape
|
| That don’t apply to us
|
| Oh, no, no |
