Die To Live

I'm guessing y'all waiting, waiting for a message Thru a poem I attempt to present as perfection About the struggle and the lessons Only speak on what I know Heard more money more problems But there's problems being broke Thinking only way out, guess I gotta sell my soul Cops see me chilling and assume I'm pushing dope Half the time they ain't wrong I'm just tryna stay afloat Foos I don't even know, want my body turning cold Uneducated man, say what I think not what I see Extend my arms to the stars, I could never seem to reach Ain't been to church since a kid So I'll never try to preach Sharing what I learned, and glad I get to teach Ain't gonna save my breath I don't know which is my last Images distorted Staring thru the looking glass Am I envisioning my dreams While I'm remembering the past Work for everything I got Fought for everything I've had Hearing voices say it's foolish That I never stood a chance If I wanted your opinion Know that I would fucking ask Even if I could explain Doubt that y'all would understand Walk the path that I've created Then there ain't no turning back ugh Pour my passion into pages Hope a part of me is remaining Kids fiend for being famous Me I'm probably dying nameless 2 dates surround a dash I make the most of every moment Hear the sirens hit the stash Cuz the whip and burner stolen Homies saying that I'm foolish Why would I waste so much potential No clue what I'm doing Spill my guts out thru a pencil Ain't tryna be a rapper That all they owns a fucking rental One thing I know is certain Others sienten lo que siento Means some can relate Vibing like Ahmad Thinking about back in the days When I was running with my mob The goal was getting laid Saying mfk a job Still tryna to get paid To kill the nagging from my moms I ain't choose this life it kinda fell into my lap Like when the enemigas busted And the homie passed the strap Helps build a reputation Asking what the f*ck is that It's Crooks respecting crooks With Respect you might advance
