Anytime I wanna see Cisco, you know what I mean
I got a lot of pictures, but man, that's home
That was a bro, that's home
So just certain shit, yo
Just gotta come together
You know what I'm saying
JU said we set the 17th, we go to the gravesite
Just for like the holidays, we gotta just check his moms dogs
Please don't let me die today
I'm on a mission lord
Tryna get this paper
Please forgive me lord
I been around the block
I seen some crazy shit
And when the pigs snatched me, I ain't tell em' shit
Rules I live by, you keep your f*cking mouth shut
Just cause he told don't mean I got to follow up
This a f*cked up world that we living in
Gotta keep the opps close, you can't really trust your friends
Ohh
That line hit a nerve brother
I sat there, I let you call my mom's mother
You even played a big brother to my little brother
And now it feels like the whole time you was undercover
You's a f*cking snake nigga cost me five years
No love for a coward yeah I dropped tears
Motherf*cking crackers tried to give me 40 years
But I kept smiling like it wasn't nothing dawg
Cause this the life I chose homie
I did what I wanted to nobody chose this for me
I'm the one that took those packs, I bust those guns
That's the type of shit that I considered having fun
Young and out of control is what they told me
All I ever wanted was to get it with my homies
Niggas grew apart
Niggas was never smart
But we knew what we wanted gettin rich from the start
Niggas always going hate when they see a nigga shining
Asking stupid questions like, why these niggas rhyming
But how these niggas so nice, god, why these niggas so nice
Shit took time, homie, many sleepless nights
We gon' make it through the fight
We gon' make it through the fight
Please, please forgive me for my sins
Please, please forgive me for my sins
Please, please forgive me for my sins
It's my life, let me live it
I'm on the paper chase, we gon' get it
I love the game, I love the hustle
I love the pain, I love the struggle
It's my life, let me live it
I'm on a paper chase, I'm gon' get it
I love the game, I love the hustle
I love the pain, I love the struggle
Please forgive me for my sins, I'm just trying to win
I ain't cool with some folks no more
Honestly thought they was kin, no hard feelings at all
Some people like to pretend, uh
And learned some people tend to pre
I climbed up out of that dirt, my shirt full of debris
But I held no hatred in my heart, so I'm clean
My brother died before 25, and while alive, we shared a dream
So as soon as we get on, I'll be at ease, yeah
They say time heals all wounds, but we just get strong
I don't talk to nobody about it, so put it in songs
Eight years later, I still can't believe that you gone
Eight years later, I still cry
Still put my heart on the beat, so they can feel I
Still watch what I say, still watch who I'm around
Still paranoid to this day
Still
Cautious of friends, they be the line
Front line they got your back, so you can't see what come behind
And through it all, I still smile
Still calm, cool, and collected, but act up and I'm still wild
Just been focused on the riches, Shade can change in the instance
It's my life, let me live it, and let me live it how I want
It's my life, let me live it
I'm on a paper chase, we gon' get it
I love the game, I love the hustle
I love the pain, I love the struggle
It's my life, let me live it
I'm on a paper chase, I'm gon' get it
I love the game, I love the hustle
I love the pain, I love the struggle
Look, please let me live today
I'm on a mission too
Here with the family, we only missing you
Heart heavy, tears drop, but getting through
Understand that it's forever you
I make cahoots
Hopefully the message received
I talk to your tombstone, it's times you visit my dreams
I mean you know how I feel brother
I never met your pops, but mine was there
So it's fair we can share brother
And I'm here brother
I know you left in the physical but I gained me an angel, don't disappear brother
Liquor hit the floor
Smoke fill the air brother
Aware the hood never cared for us
I got your pendant in my jewelry box just for your energy
Nike hoodie still in my closet
Just for your memories
Certain people seem too shaky they can't get next to me
I don't even swear on your name
I let you rest in peace
The year you passed, I could've had twins
But they ain't make it through
It feel like I'm running on my last wind
You by my side, then I'm always protected
Unhealed scars they was always embedded
But this how we living
It's my life, let me live it
I'm on a paper chase, I'm gon' get it
I love the game, I love the hustle
I love the pain, I love the struggle
It's my life, let me live it
I'm on a paper chase, I'm gon' get it
I love the game, I love the hustle
I love the pain, I love the struggle
