Life's Overpriced

Yeah (yeah), ay

This shit too real, turn the lights off

Like Huncho, turn the mic off

Mama stressin' over bills

So I can't take a night off

I can't take a day off

The devil tryna trade off

Hopped right off that Porsche

I remember workin' day jobs

Yeah, I'm just tryna read between the lines

Who knew that a mic could save a life?

Tryna live my dreams I see at night

One thing they don't tell you is that life is overpriced (this life)

Money and that fame come with a price (this life)

300 days and 300 nights (this life)

It's gon' be the ones you love holdin' that knife (this life)

Got my second chance, I'll do it right

Never took a handout, but I always took advice

Heart already frozen, fuck it, pour it over ice

Married to the game and she broke my heart twice

But, girl, I know that greatness never happens overnight, yeah

This time, I'll do it right, yeah

Girl, I ain't afraid of heights

One thing that they don't tell you is that life is overpriced, yeah

Fuck it, I go hard for me, nobody gonna save me

I don't need my flowers, I'm in the garden droppin' 80

Wilt Chamberlain these hoes, they've been tryna have my baby

I'm a product of the trials and tribulations, that's what made me

Too real for the socials, too real for you bitches

I seen death around the corner, hope he don't pay me a visit

I done started from the bottom, it was just me and the crickets

Couldn't pay the train fee, now I'm runnin' up a ticket

Yeah, I'm just tryna read between the lines

Who knew that a mic could save a life?

Tryna live my dreams I see at night

One thing they don't tell you is that life is overpriced (this life)

Money and that fame come with a price (this life)

300 days and 300 nights (this life)

It's gon' be the ones you love holdin' that knife (this life)

Got my second chance, I'll do it right

Runnin' to the top, I'm puttin' holes inside my shoes

All my diamonds white, but I keep my heart Nipsey blue

I was searchin' for the man doin' confessions in the booth

I be goin' hard, 'cause I got problems just like you, fuck it

Have you ever stacked a 20-ball and still felt stressed?

Have you slept right on the floor and still woke up feelin' blessed?

Have you ever hit that mic until you ran out of breath?

Father God said, "Every testimony need a test"

And I'm just tryna read between the lines

Who knew that a mic could save a life?

Tryna live my dreams I see at night

One thing they don't tell you is that life is overpriced (this life)

Money and that fame come with a price (this life)

300 days and 300 nights (this life)

It's gon' be the ones you love holdin' that knife (this life)

Got my second chance, I'll do it right
