LYRICS

Lyrics

I'm feeling good, I'm livin', pimpin'

We still alive, shout out my folks in Clemson

South Carolina trippin', folks dying in church

I stop going to church, like fuck is it worth

I stop messin' with drugs, seen how it was doin' us

We tryna raise families, this shit gon' ruin us

You rollin' with Jesus, I'm rollin' with Neil

You popping a pill, I smoke weed for my ills

I'm tired of the lies, you the man in disguise

You keep lookin' for God, I just look to survive

I be smokin' the black, she be smokin' her crack

We both stuck in the trap, we'll both kill for a stack

How you feel, I'm lit, where I live, it's lit

We talk shit on the porch while we killin' a fifth

Twenty years, he gone, paperwork, he back home

I write lyrics for y'all, hope you lovin' the songs

If you wonder who I am, then truth is what I'll give

Let me take you to my world and show you how I live

The sun don't always shine on us and that's just how it is

But I'm here to stay another day and that's just how I feel

I'll take an eight to explain where I'm comin' from

My aim like a pointed gun, I ain't the one to up and run

I put that on my daughter and a couple sons

Until I'm gone, forever hustlin', I do it just because it's fun

If not, then fuck it, I'm at a junction in my life

If you can't take the truth, then tough shit

I made it out the bucket, but some will say I'm lucky

Louisvillian till my death and you can find me at Atlantucky

Lobby call eleven

Check out at the Travelodge, really can't complain

Hell, I done beat a lotta odds, the result the same

Incompetent or sabotage

Do your thing though, it's all good like Rally's fries

Chess, not checkers, I bless hot records

My horoscope told me, "Say less, not extra"

I'm good in the blackest spots, put that on these freckles

Age no longer thirty-eight ,but ya boy's still special, how you doing?

If you wonder who I am, then truth is what I'll give

Let me take you to my world and show you how I live

The sun don't always shine on us and that's just how it is

But I'm here to stay another day and that's just how I feel

Yo, they askin' me how I'm doin', I can't complain a bit

I feel so alive, and no, my life ain't a bitch

I took out the rear view, I'm better than yesterday

I'm movin' downfield, I'm making better plays

Made me some money, but then I blew all that

Looked in the mirror like, why don't you fall back?

I got in control and then I fucked up again

Ain't nobody perfect, every second I sin

These here mistakes don't define a man

I embrace a loss and make the mind expand

A wise woman told me not to jump off the bridge

And that the wagon ain't no better, never ride the band

As a kid, it was tough to make my own decisions

Probably why I'm practicin' my own religion

But it's all to the good, I don't judge nobody

I'm just tryna show some love, dap and hug somebody

If you wonder who I am, then truth is what I'll give

Let me take you to my world and show you how I live

The sun don't always shine on us and that's just how it is

But I'm here to stay another day and that's just how I feel
