Aye, in this life, you gotta have some audacity

You better walk with your back straight, you better die with your head up

You better not never say sorry, if it was you they wouldn't let up

They gon' keep holding your face in the mud till the day you decide that you fed up

In this life, you better show no fear

You got a better chance at robbing a bank over getting somebody to care

You got a better chance at cutting me off than somebody with nappy-ass hair

And if they don't think I can make it that far, well then guess what, I'm taking it there

Aye, oh you wanna flex like that? ****, then show your muscle

Oh you wanna pop your shit? Aye, first gotta blow that bubble

Oh you wanna teach them a lesson, huh? Then let em know they in trouble

Let em all know it's your time

Do em like JFK on a nice Friday and blow they minds

Run that motherfuckin' red light like you ain't see them signs

Send your every praise to the Father that you even got this high

Cause it could go at any second, and when you know that for a fact

Then you gon' grow from every lesson

In this life, you gotta have some audacity

You better walk with your back straight, you better die with your head up

You better not never say sorry, if it was you they wouldn't let up

They gon' keep holding your face in the mud till the day you decide that you fed up

In this life, you better show no fear

You got a better chance at robbing the bank or forgetting somebody to care

You got a better chance at cutting me off than somebody with nappy-ass hair

And if they don't think I can make it that far, well then guess what, I'm taking it there
