Life Is Good

Shoot last year bought my family a crib

showed them it can be the real

Still trying to absorb

ain't gotta call mama no more

to help me to handle the bills

Life ain't perfect

but ain't gotta fight to the surface

every single month for the rent

Taking wifey off on a trip,

on the flight fly as a...

Was gonna say blimp

been a good year tryna get a new whip

Job and business bringing loot in

feels like stealing

but ima new man

One day I'm gon quit

from the job cuz it's all the same

Do my own thing

that’s all I'm saying

They tryna pay for my peace

but everyday they knock a piece from me

call it ball and chain

(Bling!)

Don't tell me now

Feet don’t fail me now

what you tryna sale me now

Truth or not

feeling I can reach the top

If I shoot my shot

would you tell me that it's all in vain?

But I'm good for now

gotta pay debt

Poppa gotta make a little sweat

rat race ain't to the death

Kids gotta eat till they good from chow

man I'm blessed

I can't lie I'm stressed at times

but the Lord gave me the best I must confess

Man life is good yea

Man life is good

In the valley in the hood

Take my family where they should

I feel good yea

Feel next God

Every smile, every cry

Can somebody testify

Man life is good yea

Man life is good

In the valley in the hood

Take my family where they should

I feel good yea

Feel next God

Every smile, every cry

Can somebody testify

Man life is good yea

Aye

I remember not havin much

Ramen/lunch meat sandwiches

Now they sayin Mell O you gainin weight

Yeah the bread been stacking up

That’s cause the boy not slacking off

I be on the dash like every day

Life ain’t quite where I wished it was

But still I’m blessed

So I can’t complain

Talks wit my mama like

“boy just go back to school”

But I told her that ship been sailed

Who would’ve thunk my Sail was Full

Quiet as kept I’m back in classes

With a promise to get my masters

All while retaining my masters

From hands of these dirty..

(yo Mell O. chill)

Seems like they ain’t wanna let me build

So I dipped out like let me heal

I’m a bust through the front gate myself

Don’t worry baby

You ain’t gotta let me in

Cause I’m good

Yeah

Living life I should

Yeah

All I had to do is think I can

The little engine that could

Yeah

Now I’m here with my squad to son this game

And that’s on mamas

Aye

I been usin my brain to make these dollars

That’s on commas

Aye

Hope uncle Peter proud of me

Never did I quit or doubt the faith

Can’t nobody move me out this space

And that’s all I’m bout to say

Man life is good yea

Man life is good

In the valley in the hood

Take my family where they should

I feel good yea

Feel next God

Every smile, every cry

Can somebody testify

Man life is good yea

Man life is good

In the valley in the hood

Take my family where they should

I feel good yea

Feel next God

Every smile, every cry

Can somebody testify

Man life is good
