Better Life

I just came to ease my mind The pain is deep ages like wine You feel my energy my vibe They show respect just outta pride I been grateful from the jump Talking faithful since day one Slide in safe pay off the ump They might hate I’m adding sums They might hate I’m passing blunts The more they hate I know I’m up Can’t slow down it’s in my blood I pay the prices of an addict Merry go round I’m at the plugs I can’t be myself when they yell action I’m afraid to be just like her I’m afraid to let that show I’m afraid these drugs don’t fight fair I’m afraid to let them go Traded in my cleats for a better mic Then I killed the old me for a better life I’ve been through it all I cannot regret it Watching a snake take in my sloppy seconds Don’t wanna do this on my own Heart is on my sleeve where is my home? This pain is something I would never wish Keep my enemies but that’s irrelevant Where were you whenever I needed some help? Cant give up it’s far from me to ring the bell You’ll never be it’s all they got in their defense Now I’m a witness sniping bitches off the bench I’m the one that they complain about But I’m the one who sacrificed to have a way up out I sit alone going crazy in my mind I got the thrown you ain’t taking it this time So bury me inside my debts When I’m struggling the most they think I’m doing best Traded in my cleats for a better mic Then I killed the old me for a better life
