Life what is it for real I don't know. It's like hate taking over the whole world what is it over?. Suicide man that's the devil trying to control us they told us but we didn't notice the pain was sitting on they shoulders. The world was just a polar the rather live in the solar. System got us hopeless and focused on forclosures. Wake up and smell the folgers.... oh momma and bring home the soldiers. Osama you owe us the 9 11 was bogus. now we right back at him. Say the war is our motive. Wake up early in the streets of the block streets of the block. He posted up on the corner like a soldier. in the drill but he wouldn't stop. Living life in the battlefield battlefield. trying to survive every day and every night. It's the same deal. Lifes strange lifes strange times change times change but karma always finds the way. Stay strong stay strong hold on hold on. Don't let all your dreams fade away. Yeah life can beat you down what goes it comes around. It's not how you hit the ground it's how fast you get back up. And go keep going till it feels like I'm giving my life away. Gets hard and harder happiness is worth the wait. Cause on my own is a better way. Cause on my own is a better way. A lot of mothers they just don't understand. they just don't understand. They think we're hard on our sons. but we gotta teach our boys how to be a man. They only know when they walk out the door when they walk out the door. See we can show em how to fire. but they gotta teach themselves how to reload. Cause unenployment is harder than it's ever been. sometimes it feels like I can't win. And even through all the rules keep changing I'm stronger now than I was when I came in. Yeah life can beat you down what goes it comes around. It's not how you hit the ground it's how fast you get back up. And go keep going to feel like I'm giving my life away. Gets hard and harder happiness is worth the wait. Cause on my own is a better way. Cause on my own is a better way. Hey hey going through the back streets like I got beef. Carnival for carnivores with the sharp teeth. Animalistic it's why we call the cops beast. We're on the hunt cause they're hungry for the dark meat. I'm rapping through my heart beat brain is the base my heart is the drum. Give the drum some promis of a better life is all I got to give. I ain't just trying to survive I'm trying to live. Cause all I want is a better way. Hey if you're not prepared the world can be so cold. All that you can do is your best and just hope. In time the truth will show just stick to what you know. Get a grip on something real and never let it go. And go keep going to feel like I'm giving my life away. Gets harder and harder happiness is worth the wait. Cause on my own is a better way. Cause on my own is a better way
