Demetrius - Life is Lyrics

I'm so glad
You came into my life
Baby girl I'm tired
Backsliding again
Forget about the time and the dial gets to spinning
A thousand hours in
Heard its all worth a penny
5 minute call with granny, told me all was forgiven
Long as I'm here
Rest in peace Tyrell
Free Lamar out the pin
Keep the fam on my mind
Know they dying to live
I hear cranes in sky and the outlooks is vivid
Granddaddy said it won't the time for revenge
Time to rebuild
Time to amend
Holding shit down can't go flying with the wind
They was telling me to listen, but the clouds in my ears
Had to dial it back in
There that nigga go, wasting his talents again
Shit
The road to try and make it out of town is relentless
Seen more niggas throwing in the towel than I'd wish
Head seen us on the rise
Thought out shine might eclipse him
Only few know what the darkness reveals
Thoughts change when you've been on both sides of the pistol
That was a intro
Now it begins
There's a shift in the tide
Better learn how to swim
Finding peace
Had to compromise with my sins
That's the price that we pay
That's the pride of a man
Dug deep
Last drive
Turned the tie to a win
These is strange times
Seen the lions turn to dinner
Line in sand
We don't rock with you niggas
Sold me up the Nile
I done climbed out shivering
Fact that I survived
Drowned out by the whispers
Could barely recognize the other side of the mirror
Had to remember
Back to mission
Laughed when they tried to say the game bout inches
Bitch I'm from mile
Catch my stride in the distance
Let's see if they still walking tall when it's finished
West
West
West
Know my actions didn't always match my intentions
It don't matter when you wear the mask of a villain
I caught the reaction
I'm not trynna hear it
Respect that's gone for who I thought was revered
Life would crescendo with shot in the air
He loss to the bullet
I loss to my fears
Tossing and turning
Was lost thru the years
When the scars that I gained came across from a peer
Watching my back
Gotta guard on my pivot
Won't let how I lived still affects how I'm living
I ain't need to pick up a gun in a minute
But press and It's still pressure on the trigger
That was a gamble
That was a difference
Never was afraid to combat on a issue
Was constantly clashing without a commission
Debating a fool never made any cents
Made up my mind
I was not on the fence
Just became more adapt at reacting to tension
Back when carrying a strap was a minimum
That got my folks hit with the maximum sentence
Heavier now that he's not in attendance
Praying for guidance
Not for repentance
No looking back on the path that it sent us
Was halted at first we unlocked the transmission
Took to the field
It was not my decision
More than a scout
I was out with a vision
Out for the count
Now I'm out for a vengeance
That was intro
Now is the entrance
My name is Demetrius
I'm from Frederick, Maryland
And I'll be here for a little second
Niggas know what's up with me
