Fraidadeath

Hey yo, I used to be afraid of death
Would think about it everyday, I guess I was depressed
But now I'm doing okay
The lights clear and my faith strong
I used to hate on, but now my days long
That's what I was made from
Everyday, people making these breaks and [?]
These crates I flip
Help me with mistakes and trips
I gotta get better
You gotta do something
I gotta work harder
You gotta stop fronting
If you love someone then tell them that
Even when I'm sellin [?]
Still keeping hella facts
Just to tell you where I'm at
These songs hug your boy to survive
Would get up in the car and just drive
Until I started feeling alright
So play aloud homie
Do your thing thing
Cause I was just like you
And I'm okay kay
I make my own rules
I do my own thing
No matter where I go I know that I would never change
Peace

I am not, one of these other cats
And neither are you
If you listening right now it's cause this here is the truth
It ain't about, making it to the top just for the sake of it
It's about, having the influence to change this nation
Take the evil out the people of the other lines
Your hardcore raps, I call that shit the smother lines
I lay back on it
I think about the economy
And if I had a child, what would he or she grow up to be?
A rap singer, ballplayer, journalist to atheist
Is faith even gon' be a thing?
I think maybe just in 20 years, will any of this even matter?
If I were to die today, would I of made an impact?
Everybody goes through hard times so it evens out
And anybody can come from struggling to make it out
There's no excuse for half-assin it
I'm grabbing life full speed
And know that I'm ain't worried about the proceeds
I just breathe

Sometimes I just wish that
You knew how appreciated you were
And its like, I don't write these songs for you
I don't write these songs for them
I don't write these songs for me
It's just, the only way I know how to communicate
Cause 99% of the time I'm just quiet
But I'm holding on, I'm holding on, I'm holding on yea

I'm holding on for better days
I gotta get up, some way
I gotta get up, some way

I'm holding on for better days
I gotta get up, some way
I gotta get up, some way
