still alive

[00:21.63] I done made it through another year (yeah)
[00:23.62] I should get a plaque (please), I deserve a trophy (gold)
[00:26.43] I'll take silver second (yeah), even bronze lowkey (woah)
[00:28.91] I kept my head down (down), I kept my hands soapy (clean)
[00:31.54] I took a couple hits, more like a barrage (ow)
[00:34.08] I took a deep breath, I sent message to God (God)
[00:36.70] And after everything I still made it to my garage (to my garage)
[00:39.58] And after everything I still made it to my garage
[00:41.98] I'm still alive (still a-, still alive)
[00:46.85] I'm still getting by one way or another
[00:52.14] I'm thinking maybe I'm
[00:57.59] I'm meant for more than a life just shy of the gutter, I-
[01:03.14] I'm still alive (still a-, still alive)
[01:08.11] I'm still getting by one way or another
[01:13.59] I'm thinking maybe I'm
[01:18.85] I'm meant for more than a life just shy of the gutter, I-
[01:25.32] My demons they are very alive, they just vary in size
[01:28.42] From barely my height to there in the sky
[01:30.44] I wear a disguise, aware of my pride it's buried inside deep
[01:33.78] I'm paranoid eyes open, especially when I sleep
[01:36.34] Especially when I ride, now multiply by three
[01:39.18] I can feel the divide, it equals R.I.P
[01:41.74] I'm sick of wondering if all y'all see, all y'all sleep, all y'all key
[01:45.74] I peel the layers back
[01:46.69] Don't play with that, that's all I be
[01:48.49] You can't explain the fact, they hate us blacks but bite our steez
[01:51.15] I digress tho, 2am in Hollywood order Obama special
[01:54.44] I'm sorta the prime example of 4th quarter Lebron
[01:57.01] I'm for sure intertwined with the Stars 'n all
[01:59.73] But it's dark, a nigga been on a roll
[02:01.86] So fuck it I'll play the part, niggas chasing a goal
[02:04.25] And I'm just chasing my heart, pardon me if I'm too abrasive
[02:07.25] I blossom like tulips and keep it true till I meet my maker
[02:09.90] A baker no Anita but I need her like a scholar need a teacher
[02:13.36] Like a daughter need a father or a choir need a preacher
[02:15.80] I require an acquired taste
[02:17.49] Inspired to go higher than Mariah on her finest day
[02:20.56] I'ma find a way, we gon' make it out, we gon' be okay
[02:24.58] We gon make it out, we gon' be okay, we gon' make it out
[02:28.47] I'm still alive (still a-, still alive)
[02:33.52] I'm still getting by one way or another
[02:38.82] I'm thinking maybe I'm
[02:44.17] I'm meant for more than a life just shy of the gutter, I-
[02:49.86] I'm still alive (still a-, still alive)
[02:54.84] I'm still getting by one way or another
[03:00.16] I'm thinking maybe I'm
[03:05.51] I'm meant for more than a life just shy of the gutter, I-
[03:12.36] If you want it then you gotta go get it
[03:17.78] That's a lesson life won't let you forget it
[03:22.26] I've been so afraid of life I done forgot how to live it
[03:27.65] I've been so afraid of life I done forgot how to live it
[03:30.33] I've been so afraid of life I done forgot how to live it
[03:33.64] If you want it then you gotta go get it
[03:39.00] That's a lesson life won't let you forget it
[03:43.68] I've been so afraid of life I done forgot how to live it
[03:48.94] I've been so afraid of life I done forgot how to live it
