[Chorus: Snak the Ripper]

This is my life homie I'm still living

Never getting back all the time I've given

Seen good times seen things get ugly

Trying to get up trying to be somebody

(Evil)

This is my life homie I'm still livin'

Used to be the underdog now I've risen

That's one thing that you can't take from me

We're out here trying to be somebody


[Verse 1: Snak the Ripper]

Alone in thought always stuck in my head

It's like looking for the green but you're stuck at the red

Feels like life is just a dream and I'm tucked in the bed

I can't believe I'm still alive and I ain't fucked up or dead

I was young and cold duckin the patrol

Never done what I was told fuckin spun outta control

But now I got a hold and I'm gunnin for the gold

I can run my own lane but I prefer the whole road

I can't stop it I chose my route

Keep clear from gossip just close your mouth

You gotta open your ear and hear yourself

And the only thing you should fear is fear itself

Nobody's stopping you from being your best

When your life gets too dirty clean the mess

Up late smoking fifth don't need the rest

Till the very last breath fuckin leaves my chest


[Chorus: Snak the Ripper]

This my life homie I'm still living

Never getting back all the time I've given

Seen good times seen things get ugly

Trying to get up trying to be somebody

(Evil)

This is my life homie I'm still livin'

Used to be the underdog now I've risen

That's one thing that you can't take from me

We're out here trying to be somebody


[Verse 2: Evil Ebenezer]

I'm still living everyday is a blessing

I lost my direction but I always kept pressing

Fought thru the depression the drama and the tension

Hoping I would see a better man in my reflection

Searching for perfection lost in the vanity

Forgot who I was and everything that I planned to be

The hardest thing is to believe in yourself

When you spent so many cold nights screaming for help

And that's the real truth but from me to you

Listen to yourself and never mind what the others do

Cuz people are always gonna try to bring you down

But you gotta rise above it keep swinging for the crown

And no matter what you always gotta keep faith

Keep all the cameras rolling like this is your last tape

Like it's your last chance to show them all that you're great

So don't ever back down and don't ever play it safe


[Chorus: Snak the Ripper]

This my life homie I'm still living

Never getting back all the time I've given

Seen good times seen things get ugly

Trying to get up trying to be somebody

(Evil)

This is my life homie I'm still livin'

Used to be the underdog now I've risen

That's one thing that you can't take from me

We're out here trying to be somebody
