Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Life is driving me crazy
Everything ain't all gravy
If it ain't one thing it's another
Why me? I believe in karma
So I know the answer is coming back on me
[Verse 2]
Life is driving me crazy
Everything ain't all gravy
If it ain't one thing it's another
Why me? I believe in karma
So I know the answer is coming back on me
[Verse 3]
If the devil wasn't alive, Mack would be stressed
Riding around town in a bulletproof vest
Police everywhere, armor cars and shh
Worried about being another victim of a hit
But my relationship too strong, for real, I'm a saint
A child of God and if you hate me then you ain't
He the only G I know to take it all with no triggers
So I put my faith in Him and never no ****
As a result of that I'm cool, seem like I'm never nervous
So catch me Sunday morning in that 8:30 service
Told me ride with Me, son, and I'll never leave you lonely
You have troubles for a reason 'cause now you got a testimony
[Verse 4]
Life is driving me crazy
Everything ain't all gravy
If it ain't one thing it's another
Why me? I believe in karma
So I know the answer is coming back on me
[Verse 5]
Life is driving me crazy
Everything ain't all gravy
If it ain't one thing it's another
Why me? I believe in karma
So I know the answer is coming back on me
[Verse 6]
Most people get outrageous when they hit they knees
But I'ma thank You for the simple things, the grass and the trees
I'm grateful for everything, my fame and good wealth
I'm blessed with good money but most of all with good health
God, if they don't think I'm sincere they don't know me, never knew me
And I tear up every time I think how good You been to me
I should've lost a few time and walked away without any pay
But I got favor with You and You gave it to me anyway
So when you blind in a situation believe He can show you
And if you ever need a hug then just believe He can hold you
So turn to the Lord for He's the best to consult you
And that's the realest thing that Mack 10 ever told you
[Verse 7]
Life is driving me crazy
Everything ain't all gravy
If it ain't one thing it's another
Why me? I believe in karma
So I know the answer is coming back on me
[Verse 8]
Life is driving me crazy
Everything ain't all gravy
If it ain't one thing it's another
Why me? I believe in karma
So I know the answer is coming back on me
[Verse 9]
Thank You for letting me conquer my enemies and they plots
And thank You for letting my mama survive them five shots
It was up close and personal, a lot for a kid to see
All the stuff I've been through, how could I not be a G?
I know He got a purpose for me, it ain't no ifs, ands or maybes
God, in case I never told You, I want to thank You for my babies
Although I'm a gangster rapper, I'm pretty smart and well-rounded
I never sell my soul and I promise to stay grounded
He said all you gotta do it just speak it and believe it
And everything I prayed for, I eventually receive it
While the devil work overtime, the suckers stay doubting You
I'm aware of all the blessing and I know I'm nothing without You
[Verse 10]
Life is driving me crazy
Everything ain't all gravy
If it ain't one thing it's another
Why me? I believe in karma
So I know the answer is coming back on me
[Verse 11]
Life is driving me crazy
Everything ain't all gravy
If it ain't one thing it's another
Why me? I believe in karma
So I know the answer is coming back on me
[Verse 12]
When we were born, we were just wrapped up with fever
Didn't say we were perfect, didn't say we didn't make mistakes
Didn't say we didn't cut up a little bit
But we were just wrapped up in fever
Hallelujah
I wish I had somebody in here
That you were highly a fever
Hey man, folks didn't like you a whole lot
