DMX - Life Be My Song lyrics

rate me

Ask me if I cry

I'll tell you why I can

Come on!

I'm gonna go hard

Whether I'm right or wrong

Till the dead and gone

It's on!

What ya'll really want?!

Bring it on

I'ma let life be my song

How I live is simple

Walk through the streets

Talk to the beats

New York! I'ma eat

I never had a problem with surviving

No problem with getting down, busting my guns, or ruff rydin'

Cats talk slick but I talk slicker

My shits for real cause I'm that nigga

The reason that you hurtin' is you gotta take your problems

Straight to the lord, no body else can solve them(?)

See what I see but look through my eyes

The devil is a liar the truth never lies

We all got issues

Shit that we go thru

Shit that we been thru

Shit that we wont do

The pain that we bring upon ourself

For no reason, is the worst!

That's why I say I'm blessed with the curse

The Lord gave it all to me

And in the process, I lost my soul

Damn! the devil got a hold

In my mind, I'm like a little boy

Lost in crime

Like the healthy nigga that the devil forced into dying

The lord knows I'm trying

But at the same time

You hear the nigga with the weight of the world!

Why you gave it to Earl?

To live is to suffer

And i'm living it up

Face everyday chin up

I ain't giving it up

Cause if I aint giving a fuck

The who will?!

So I hope for the best

Knowing that its all uphill

Sometimes I wonder what's lifes about

Sometimes I wonder why I take the wrong route

Then turn around and go out

And no doubt, the fate in mine is blind

So whatever, fuck it, I'ma roll out

We all go through the motions

We get different notions

We each have our own ocean

That we can either drown or float

Like the vessels that we are

Vessels that would carry many far

Dont know what to say, when you talking

Dont know who you gone see, when you walking

If you dont know how much of what you do is dirt

3 things you dont know gonna get you hurt!

Nigga!
