I was thinking about my life, and thought How Much I was Grinding for the wrong reasons, and something had to change. I Rather Die Real Then Keep Living In Vain

lyrics

Hook

There is nowhere, I can be safe
From the Cradle 2, the Grave, I’m a Maintain
I’m a keep it moving, I know It sounds Insane
I rather die real, then keep living In vain

Verse 1

1 Simi,lar con,vo, on point, like ron,do
2 Figured out which way to go, so never, mind those
3 Aggravated, moments, I did it, so I owned it
4 Some liked it, so they cloned it, out here, so I’m roaming
5 The streets,
Compliments of the struggle
6 Thank yous from the hustle, Goodbyes from the trouble
7 It’s on me,
8 What was I thinking, (I’m running) 2x I’m running
I’m On E, uh
9 Empty of myself, do I know me well,
10 (Pause) Came out alive, out this living hell
11 Some said it can’t be done, and what if I fail,
12 No matter what, I’m dying, as an, empty shell
13 No regrets, I Maintain,
14 No love lost for the ones who caused pain
15 I was born dead in sin, since my birthday
16 I’m ready to die, but the world, can’t take me

Verse 2

1 My life is not my own, we live for other people
2 realization of this truth, is something lethal
3 ask yourself why you live, is it something selfish
4 We embellish our lives to disguise the pride
5 Not pointing fingers, at, anyone but me
6 But I believe we share in a dream we can’t see
7 Not a rapper or an artist, I’m a voice, in the wilderness
8 I die daily, So you can say I lost my will to live
9 I can’t just exist, I refuse to believe the norm
10 I’ll find myself in the midst of the perfect storm
11 Before I’m gone, or maybe, it’s when I die
Sing Rap
12 one way or another I’ll deny all of these lies
13 and all of my ties, to a crooked system
14 that creates victims from a perverse, jurisdiction
15 There is no where I can be safe
16 from the cradle to the grave, I’m a maintain
