Livin' My Life (feat. Young Zel) Video (MV)

I tried to tell em that Ima real guy
You can never be a fake when you living real life
Staying on the path cuz my mind is on the prize
If There ain't no 9-5 then I'm serving 9- life
Living in the hood you keep choppas for situations
Because your own skin will kill you for reputations
But that's a set up when they try to drown you you gotta just keep ya head up I'm fed up
My unborn kids is begging me for a Christmas
Why I gotta choose the street life or a pension
The fruits of my labors I swear that ima be reaping em
They say we got choices but some f is ain't really seein em
They say we all equal but how can I trust you
If I ain't in a blazer don't put me in a jumpsuit
Thank my pops everyday taught me to be a man
Provide for my family that's my only plan

I know I gotta get mine
I know things aint right
No matter I grind
They cant dim my light
Im just livin' my life

I know I gotta get mine
I know things aint right
No matter I grind
They cant dim my light
Im just livin' my life

Up late nights kickin wit my niggas
Talking bout life stories paintin these vivid pictures
Hustlin for da chippers, its nothing we livin
For something, you buggin if you dont apply the cash rules ya dig it?
Coming to agreements, I hope to it makes it clearer
My family needs me more, but this money needs me nearer
All my niggas doing dirt, catch me walking on da 'crete
Being a black man alone, got em calling the police
See, its hard where im from
For whats in store, red dots on you, now you at target for some
For ya life, the police make you bargain its dumb
Pull over da for head light and whole squad gotta come
White privilege is real, cant relate, why I never spoke to them
They hear stories and laugh but I never said a joke to them
Hear this black man talk, all pride arose in him
Now they wonder why we the chosen ones? Huh?

I know I gotta get mine
I know things aint right
No matter I grind
They cant dim my light
Im just livin' my life

I know I gotta get mine
I know things aint right
No matter I grind
They cant dim my light
Im just livin' my life
