"The Price Of Life"(feat. Andy Mineo & Co Campbell)Yeah, fake hair, fake nails, fake pearlsCall herself a Barbie, wanna be a fake girlShe can't even see, she Stevie Wonder at night timeToo busy trying to get them red bottoms the right sizeTell her that you love her and she gonna call you a liar(Whatever, you don't really love me, you just wanna give me the lie)On the bet, but the fact is she deals with fools,That see women as garden tools, never treated them coolShe said that suckers and brothers always makin' her sickSo she gave up on em now she's just attracted to chicksBut she never seen a man with a soul as cleanHe fightin' to be whatever God made him beDon't want to manipulate the date, the legger, or shake herWanna give his life to her followin' his creatorMaybe she gonna see he ain't crazy and start wondering"God, what's the reason you made me? "Maybe it ain't to be physically attractive just so you can trap and captureA man, that'd be superficially happy. Nah, you're worth more than that, yeah.Beautiful lies, yeah, I know they ain't rightBut I bought it, but that's the price of lifeYeah, lookI wanted the girl that was super officialI found my standard superficial'Cause behind the glamour was some super issuesAnd I ain't trying to shoot to diss you, I'm just sayin'Everybody gotta look fly on the planesAnd you don't wanna step outside, lookin' plainThey call it running game, everybody playn'Dang, that's trinity the word 'play'Sephora made you make up your mindCoach bags made you feel first class this whole timeAnd them Nikey kicks running your life,Your ambition been driven by them cars that you likeI know some girls that's faster than T3ch NineSelf esteem as low as they neck-line'Cause they don't know whose image they reflect, went to bed to find love, woke up with ratsThis is a matter of heart, kidGimme a second, let me show youIf you own something you can't depart withYou probably don't own it, it own youMan, tell me what's the price of lifeToo much to find peace, so what's your releaseYeah, there's much more, believe meThan living for the things that your leavingBeautiful lies, I know they ain't right, but I bought itBut that's the price of life.She camouflage her insecurity in Jimmy Choo'sHigh heels but the mountain's top she'll never chooseShe'll set up for a dude & precious medalsA slave to his money by his chains you can tell itPage to embellish the life that you really liveThem nice clothes cover up, how you really feelWhen your eye liner off and you've been revealedTrapped in a prison with multiple life sentences55 life times as infinity, you don't wanna pray your middle fingers to DivinityYou ever stop and think about what the incentive isLivin for their approval has got it's benefitsThey special 'cause they don't live like youBut they die and their blood bleeds red like youTruth is they depressed, takin' meds like youThey ain't livin' it up, they're dead like youBut you can live, uhIf you know the price of life
