Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I gotta get that bag
It's a thug life, it's a thug life
I gotta get that bag
It's a thug life, It's a thug life (It's a)
Ooh-ah, ooh-ah
La-da-da-da (It's a)
Ooh-ah
[Verse 2]
Try to treat man like baby
Feel the teeth sink in like rabies
Boy you know you don't look fly
Them gold chains turn your neck green, bye
[Verse 3]
It's different reconciling with skeletons I ain't know I possessed
I sought perfection out in ways I no longer accept
I understand what I neglect in times when I obsess
I’m learning to confess, this fate is harder to digest
The biggest threat I’m up against is who I face in my reflection
Depression still an uninvited guest I'm always accepting
Can’t help but meet the feeling with a familiar embrace
When I know that it’ll kill me if I give into my brain
I see the shadows inside, they ten feet tall with no eyes
They put my head in the water and it’s so beautiful under
The sun reflecting off the corals, colors I can’t describe
To make the darkness divine
[Verse 4]
Sha-na-na-na-na-sha-ay
(La-da-da-da) It's a, oh-uh-oh
Ooh-ah
Sha-na-na-na-na-sha-ay
(La-da-da-da) It's a, oh-uh-oh
Ooh-ah
Sha-na-na-na-na-sha-ay
