Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I can't help myself from falling
Can't help myself from falling
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I'm trying to fight the good old fight
But after it all, I'm still just a low life
[Verse 2]
Wanna be a better man, but it's a hard life
Without that love inside you, it's a cold bind
I started to reflect on all that's been before
Started to wonder, but, but you can't be sure
[Verse 3]
Now please tell me I'm broke
It's much easier that way 'cause I just let you down
It's much easier that way
[Verse 4]
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I can't help myself from falling
Can't help myself from falling
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I'm trying to fight the good old fight
But after it all, I'm still just a low life
[Verse 5]
A low life was my uncle when he hit that crystal
That glass pipe and that rock had him toten' pistols
He was higher than a missile with a dozen issues
And every time he cried, he never reached for tissues
Attention he could sneak and screech and when he's sneakin' leavin'
My grandma hid the ham out from him
He be out there beefin'
Always lyin' don't believe him
He be out there thiefin'
On the corners chiefin' middle finger to policemen
Always tellin' mama he got a new job
So he could get some dollars for a metro card
He just get a 40 ounce, now he livin' large
He even took my bike and sold it, man I swear to God
[Verse 6]
I'm still just a low life
Never think of the low life
I can't help myself from falling
Can't help myself from falling
I'm nothing but a low life
Thinking 'bout my own life
I'm trying to fight the good old fight
But after it all, I'm still just a low life
