This Life

Every day I stop to think, can't pump the brakes, I go full throttle

Baby on my hip, the other on the bottle

Violence to my left, hunger to my right

No one's getting out of here alive

This life

Baby on the pills, maybe I can't stop 'em

Demons flying next to me, reaching from the bottom, I'm going down

Angel to my left, Devil to my right

No one's getting out of here alive

This life, can't hold me down

This time, gonna turn it all around

This life

This road to opportunity's paved with inequalities

What about my dreams, forgotten by society, I'm going down

Anger to my left, hatred to my right

No one's getting out of here alive

This life, can't hold me down

This time, gonna turn it all around

This life, oh this life

I don't want to go on I'm going down

This road I've been on is a merry-go-round

Stuck here so long, not much more I can say

Reaching for tomorrow, it's slipping away

This life, can't hold me down

This time, gonna turn it all around

This life, can't hold me down

This time, gonna turn it all around

This life, Oh this life

Every day I stop to think, can't pump the brakes, I go full throttle

Baby on my hip, the other on the bottle
