[1st Verse]

I used to be the ideal nigga
Preppy like Hilfiger
Pretty vill nigga
But wanted to make my dollar bill bigger
Turned into a field nigga
Not pickin' cotton
But pickin' up mics and rockin'
Recoppin' so I can feel richer
So I started drinkin' real liquor
Send me a groupie
And I will stick her real quick
The dilsnick it will hit her ex pills
I can feel nigga best deals
you can get the steal
If you ill I'm concealed with a
Technina millameter by my side
God used to guide me Lucifer beside me
Evil was lively trippin' with wifey
Never was treatin' her nicely
What this music got me into
This is the message Imma send to
God the evil shit I've been through
Lettin' me really know what sin do
Listen cuz the hurt cut me deep like a ginsu

[Chorus]

This life
Caught up in the fame
In the end will I forever
Burn in the flame
This life
I live in the rain
I'm an angel but the devil's
Possessing my brain

[repeat 2x]

[2nd Verse]

This life
Full of money bitches weed and riches
Kansas City niggas grind it
Cook it up in the kitchen
Pay attention to the corner nigga
Roguish and rugged
Nigga fuck it it's a must
I conceal it and tuck it
This life
Can make a nigga murder for nothin'
This life
For the money have you fakin' and frontin'
This life
Can make a nigga take a deal with the devil
This life
Got me rippin' up shit in my kennel
Ya see I live in the rain
Laugh at the storm
And mastered the pawn
Bringin' war at the crack of the dawn
Tottin' the bomb
A nigga with a third eye vision
Like a malachi blowin' smoke in the sky
See the world through the eyes of a real nigga
Look into my eyes
You can tell I'm a rider
More shows more clothes
More hoes more dough
And no foes yo

[Chorus]

This life
Caught up in the fame
In the end will I forever
Burn in the flame
This life
I live in the rain
I'm an angel but the devil's
Possessing my brain

[repeat 2x]

[3rd Verse]

Some times I wonder
How did I survive
With all this drama in front of me
Poppa went out like a bitch
For runnin' from me
Though momma never lied
She cried
Seen me sittin' in prison
Servin' a sentence
With bad intentions
Still no repentance
I'm heart broken while chokin'
On a joint dipped in water
And high hopin' the future's wide open
For my daughter my eyes are open
To all animosity constantly
Falling quickly the devil calls it
A blessing to cross Nitty
Lessons are taught quickly
Hell my pride will die with me
Then to repeat back
To the penitentiary visit me
Hell bound coffin dwellin'
Before a life in the cell yelllin'
Now free me
I'm in desperate need immediately
Truthfully speakin'
My life from night to day
24 hours I fight
Despite this hell to pay
Can't wait to see the day
When my adventures begin
With this here life of sin
I'm all in

[Chorus]

This life
Caught up in the fame
In the end will I forever
Burn in the flame
This life
I live in the rain
I'm an angel but the devil's
Possessing my brain

Is it heaven or hell
I really can't tell
It half cupid half relic
My life is anghellic
So I dance with the devils
And I fly with the angel
And I stand on a level
Where mind is so tangled

I heard your heartbeat
And my body grew so still
I looked into your mothers eyes
And I knew you were alive
I long to meet you
And show you all I know
Hand in hand with this new love
This life means so much more

I know now what I hear
It's a new love that I feel
It's you that blessed us with this life
That we've waited for so long

Your life has changed me
I'm not the man I was before
You're in my head my heart my soul
You're always on my mind
My time to know you is
Quickly drawing near but
Not as fast as my love grows
You've made me feel alive

I know now what I hear
It's a new love that I feel
It's you that blessed us with this life
That we've waited for so long

[Repeat]
(nice to see you welcome to
This place that we call home life
Looks brighter now you're here)

I know now what I hear
It's a new love that I feel
It's you that blessed us with this life
That we've waited for so long

Were so happy now
Were so happy now
You're here

It's a little device
It's a little device
Keeps you warm
Keeps you warm

It's a little surprise
Just a little surprise
To keep you calm
To keep you calm

Shadows and light
Shadows and light
I see your face on every single street

Got to get out of this place tonight
Got to get out of this way of life
Got to get out of this place tonight

It's a little device
It's a little device
Keeps you warm
Keeps you warm

Got to get out of this place tonight
Got to get out of this way of life

you've got no self-esteem, and you think you're so mistreated.
you can't stand your face, and you cannot,
cannot believe that you cannot control your fate

[chorus]
this isn't what you wanted
someone to break you down every motherfucking day
it's not the life you wanted
someone to break you, someone to make you

bruises on your face, i guess you fell down the steps again
and that's such a shame, cause you let it,
you let it happen over and over again

[repeat chorus]

it's just another day, the last day he touches you again.
but that's the price he'll pay.
you pull the trigger, it all goes away in one determind flash

[repeat chorus]

[b-verse]
pay!! close you eyes, you better, hold em' tight, you'll never,
don't keep telling yourself it''ll be alright, don't keep telling yourself it'll be alright.

[solo]

[repeat b verse]

This
This life is boring
This
This life right now is snoring
But that's all right
That's okay
It's still worth living

When it is not
I got the gun for my head
And I want to break free instead
But I could never pull the trigger
I get too scared
So I stand up instead
I go wild

Oh, there's a song, there's a song, there's a song, there's a song, there's a song,
There's a song
It's in my head
There's a song, there's a song
A little country song
That's in my head

Dear, dear man
Be nice to your girl
She knows that you could
Live without her

And so she cries in your arms
Every night
Til you walk out the door
She goes wild

Oh, there's a song, there's a song, there's a song, there's a song, there's a song,
There's a song
It's in my head
There's a song, there's a song
A little country song
It's in my head

"On a parti, six ans de mer
Sans pouvoir border la terre
Au bout de la septieme annee
On a manque de provisions"

{On stormy seas, we six years sailed
And never once green land we hailed
The bitter seventh year came on
We found our stores at last were gone}

Oh, it's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head
It's in my head

This
This life is boring
This
This life right now is snoring

Now i lay me down.
Tried so long I forgot what i'm trying for.
My heart laid before.
All that i wanted is absent.
In the comfort of your arms.
I can shut it all out.
Let is grow cold.
Let it fall away.

Give me a reason, help me,
Help me wash it all away.
Help me wash it all away.

I've grown to hate this life.
Everything i can't make right.
All the promises that i've failed.
Every night and everywhere I am.
All the dreams i can't let go.
Everytime i thought i should've known.
Everything i can't make right.
Everything that made me hate this life.

In these waking hours.
Sleeping apprehension.
The heart still beats, the lips still speak.
But the wrods fall dry.
Dry and useless like a smile from a friend that you missed.

Shut it all out.
Let it grow cold.
Let it fall away again.

Give me a reason, tell me.
Tell me everything's gunna be alright.
Everythings gunna be alright.

Theres gunna be things you never knew.
Some things you can't get through.
There's some things you just don't do.
Some things you can'y get through.
Oh no...
Don't want to hate this life.

This
This life is boring

This life right now is snoring

So I stand up instead

Oh, there's a song, there's a song, there's a song, there's a song, there's a song,
There's a song

A little country song
That's in my head

Be nice to your girl
She knows that you could
Live without her

make a friend of who you are
things so everlasting take you far
try and get away
a reason to give up to you/ a love i never understood
and now 2 years later/ i'm reading of your wedding in my morning paper
the future's getting brighter/ i need a cigarette and so i reach for my lighter

it's the same for you and it's the same for me
but i'm not here alone now and i think you'd agree
that if we'd met later, i'd never have seen this life

bad enough that i'm stil here/ lying through my teeth so loud and clear
have to get away
i'm walking streets excited man, lying awake and dreaming plans
so now 2 years later, i'm reading some reviews in my music paper
ther future's getting brighter
i wonder when the days will turn from darker to lighter

it's the same for you and it's the same for me
but i'm not here alone now, and i think you'd agree
that if we'd met later, i'd never have seen this life

make a friend of who you are
things so everlasting take you far
ther future's getting brighter
i wonder when the days will turn from darker to lighter

it's the same for you and it's the same for me
but i'm not here alone now, and i think you'd agree
that if we'd met later, i'd never have seen this life

it's the same for you and it's the same for me
but i'm not here alone now, and i think you'd agree
that if we'd met later, i'd never have seen this life

And when it's cold out
I will wait for her
And I will roam out
To the edges of the earth
And when it feels just like the rain
Has soaked through my bones
None of this will matter
None of this will save you from yourself

This life
It's brining on the death of me
Swear that I can barely see
That I'm the one to blame
This life
I swear to God it's killin' me
Seems some times I can't believe
That I'm the one to blame
And when it's cold out
In the sleet and snow
I will hold out
'Till the answers all unfold
And when it feels just like the rain
You will see through it all
None of this will matter
'Cause none of this will save you from yourself

None of this will matter
None of this will save your from yourself

A bang then stardust in your eyes
A billion years for just this night
In a way it will be alright

A blackness then the light of a million stars
As you slip into my car
The evening sky strikes sparks

This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed
What more can you expect

At night at my telescope alone
This emptiness I've roamed
Searching for a home

The stars, a brief string of shining charms
Rushing in right out of our arms
Into the drifting dark

This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed
What more can you expect

This life, this life and then the next
I finger the hem of your dress
My universe at rest

We reach for starlight all night long
But gravity is too strong
Chained to this earth we go on and on and on and on and on

Then a million sighs cresting were you stood
A beauty in the neighborhood
This lonely planet never looked so good

This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed
What more can you expect

This life, this life and then the next
I finger the hem of your dress
My universe at rest

I've blamed it, I've cursed it, I've got in its way
God knows how much of it I've thrown away
It's twisted and tangled and hard to define
It keeps coming at me one day at a time

[Chorus]
This life is all that I've got
All the I am
All that I'm not
It's worth all I go through cause this life came with you

You're right beside me to help it make sense
The rock in this ocean that I break against
The dead ends and darkness they don't disappear
But it keeps getting better the longer you're here

[Chorus]
This life is all that I've got
All the I am
All that I'm not
It's worth all I go through cause this life came with you
