Lifeline

I woke up real early 16th July It was just another birthday I didn't even try To pick myself up So I was stuck in a lie Another year gone I thought I'd be in Dubai Sipping fine wine with some dimes in heels Driving rides at high speed to see how the fast life feels But yeah here I am again Accra city traffic Feel the fire but we never burn like its magic Feel the fire but we never learn till it's tragic My heart's been broken So my ego's outspoken People who used to be friends I give smiles as a token Cos I ain't tryna be rude but dude just go be you Cos things change Nothing's always the same I've lost friends to money Some lost themselves to fame But see this is all real not a fake ordeal We are defined through life by how we choose to deal with the changes That's why family turn to strangers Skeletons in your closet Can't live so you hang them You dying inside but you're smiling just pretending for who? Look inside Tell yourself the truth Tell yourself that I will rise above the tide. And glide across the clouds like a star in the night sky But right now Im just tryna live my life right And take every single day as a lifeline Your call has been forwarded to an automatic voice message system At the tone, please record your message (Yo C, Mike wants us to come finish the joint oh. It's taking too Long. Hit me back. Vim) Yeah Is this what it is? Struggling for relevance? Fast whips, loose chicks and living in the tenements? It seems we only do things these days for the benefits I wanna start a new life But already see the end of it Nothing really changes Things happen in phases Pain keeps us alive and the passion restrains us I don't wanna lose my soul just to be famous It's like cutting away my hands just for some fingers Earth, wind and fire I'm a mixture of desires On the ladder to success I don't care who be the highest So long as I can climb to see above where the sky is As long as I can beat myself without trying Look, most of the things in this world are really worthless Take a look around and make a list Say what's worth less Chasing your dreams or nagging through all the work stress I ask my sisters is a phone really worth sex? Is a cell really worth your body? Vanity got you locked behind the bars of your own sanity The world is fighting to be normal and it's causing anarchy Media get the news whether it's good or its tragedy Try to feed you lies and tell you how it's gotta be But you ain't gotta worry bout your make-up Look within and see the beauty and strength that you are made of Look into a mirror and never be afraid of Everything you see Everything you are Everything you dreamed Everything that cut deep And left a scar Reminisce Make the change Live your life right Reach your hands to the sky This your lifeline Hey babe, I haven't seen you in a week. I miss you. Call me back okay? I love you Live your life Don't worry about time Hit your grind Chasing your lifeline Every day is a hustle Sometimes a struggle Gotta be yourself Above all Above all Gotta be yourself Above all Sometimes a struggle Yeah Live your life Don't worry about time Chase down your lifeline Gotta be yourself Above all (Sorry you were having trouble.
