Lyrics
[Intro]
Life
Life
[Verse 1]
I had a job, sold some drugs
Hatin' on me, I don't hold a grudge
High as fuck, rollin' up
You can't tell me shit, you don't know enough
You don't know enough
Who the fuck are you?
Wanna tell me what I can and can't do
Spend a couple grand on a new tattoo (Tattoo)
Fuckin' these hoes, yeah, I do that too
But I be by your side when you cry
We try to live in this lie
Holidays that go by
Let me drink, a man is still dry, so I'm makin' these calls
Keep my eyes to the sky, you know I'm takin' it all (All)
[Verse 2]
Been knocked down, but I got up swingin'
Wide awake, my phone stay ringin' (Phone stay ringin')
In a daydream (Daydream)
In a daydream (In a daydream)
As we get higher, fuck work, girl, let's get fired
In the making, I'm doin' great things
Ran around the motherfuckin' streets like a psycho
Hard to keep your balance when you're jumpin' on a tightrope (Tightrope)
Jumpin' on a tightrope (Tightrope)
If I fall, would you love me at all?
Wake up in the mornin' and fuck till tomorrow (Fuck till tomorrow)
I know it's lookin' strange (Lookin' strange)
But don't look away (Don't look away)
[Chorus]
Once upon a time
The world is soon to be mine
I'm
I'm nothin', man, I just am
[Verse 3]
Hate the lights, hate the camera, ride around in that Panamera (Panamera)
Got ABCs, no Levi's, I'm walkin' 'round with that peace sign
I see you there in your Carrera (Your Carrera)
You ridin' ill, got some time to kill
Stop by and chill
And we can talk about all the things you won't tell nobody (Nobody)
Your mind is filled with all kinds of pills
Girl, let's keep runnin', the end is coming
You told me that you afraid of decisions that you have made
You worry way too much
Shit just ain't the same when the world is filled with pain
Will I hurt you if I touch?
I'll take it slow, don't need to rush, fuck everybody, it'll just be us (Us)
Speedin' up, you try keepin' up, if you havin' trouble, please speak up (Please speak up)
When you're underwater, breathin' seem to be tough (Tough)
Come sleep with me, it's not Easy Street, I got dreams that we can discuss
[Refrain]
Life
Life
[Chorus]
Once upon a time
The world is soon to be mine
I'm
I'm nothin', man, I just am
[Outro]
So you be
And we good
