A bottle of lean, a gun to your jeans, and a little faith in me A plane in the sky, the only starlight on this never-ending street The cameras and cops they coulda been stars on our mother's new screens On our mother's new screens All of these traps, and all of these street signs None of them will be yours or mine But I'll be your empire Just stay alive, stay alive, stay alive Dear life, today I woke up with the same face With the same hate I woke up with the same brain With the same pictures in it and with the same pain And today might as well be our last day Feels like we met yesterday Till you stabbed me in the heart And hit me with the same pain I can't keep going on with the same pace And all in all I'll never win this damn race I don't know why but I feel like all I do is a damn waste What a damn shame, stuck in the same frame Surrounded by love's flames, honestly I'm exhausted And it's only you that I can blame What the hell is going on ? Look what you did to me, Look what you did to all of us I miss the days when rap was just about rap I miss the days when I had no shit on my damn mind I miss the days when my phone would ring And we'd talk about things Without having to ask "how bad ?" I miss the days when I would see my mama I miss the days when I could see my father Shit, I actually never knew that faggot Guess he was screwing hoes instead of being present I miss the days I wasn't attached to many feelings Nights when home wasn't something I saw when I'm dreaming I miss the days when my inspiration had no ceiling And I could write all day about the shit that I was livin' I miss the love that didn't involve sex I miss the love that did not involve stress Shit I miss the love that had me feeling blessed What wouldn't I give to feel this pain less I miss the days ... Drinks didn't mean Vodka Kisses didn't go further, boring wasn't sober I miss the days when high was on swings Bitches had no strings And I didn't act on karma Days weren't burdens Pains weren't lessons And the key to happiness was the one for the home's entrance I miss the days when times would change But days would stay the same Home would feel safe And the world was mine to claim All of these traps, and all of these street signs None of them will be yours or mine But I'll be your empire Just stay alive, stay alive, stay alive Just stay alive, stay alive, stay alive
