(Chorus)
This is my life
This is my life
This is my life
This is my therapy
This gets me by
This gets me by
This gets me by
This is the remedy
Verse 1
How you doing this evening?
Well I feel alright
Besides the fact my life
Turned upside down and can't sleep at night
Oh is that right?
Yeah it's factual
Every conversation I catch an attitude
Raise my voice
Result to violence
If I feel the notion that somebody is acting rude
What's wrong with you?
Really I don't know
When did it all begin?
When I was 9 years old when bullets riddled through my house window
Me and momma face down on the floor, it wasn't safe no more
When was this?
The year was '96
My family was way to broken to fix
No food in the fridge
Drugs in the crib
The typical shit you saw growing up as a kid
You really saw things like this?
Yup
Everyday life growing up
Fist fights
Fucking drive by's
Fucking up
Keep your wrists outta cuffs
Was a must
Ain't nobody in the streets that your ass could trust
Knuckle up
It was fucked up
But that was years ago
Pain never decays
Or goes away
You ever tried getting blood out of a white T shirt
It always leaves a stain
Remains the same
It doesn't change
But it plays on repeat
In the back of your brain
Drives you insane
I mean like damn
(Chorus)
This is my life
This is my life
This is my life
This is my therapy
Tell you my story
Tell you my story
Tell you my story
Is anyone listening
Verse 2
How does this affect your career?
The life I live is a lonely one
I'm close to some
Second to none
I've overcome
Trying to please others
Starring at the mirror asking myself what the fuck have I become
Fuck this therapy session...
I am sick and tired of this
I talk to you everyday of my life
And it don't change shit
Everyone wanting a piece of me
Where mine is
I can't even enjoy the success I get
You need to calm down
Naw fuck that shit...
You said you'd always be there for me
But stayed absent
I lost track of time
You kidding me
That's your excuse
Fresh what in the fuck happened to you
Got a career, went on tour
And act like ain't nobody round here dog better than you
You talking to me
Yeah I'm talking to you
With a chip on your shoulder
Nobody fucking with you
Cody fuck you
Boy I'll beat your ass
How many demons do you have
Let's talk about your past
How you been rapping for 10 years, and keep on getting passed
Expecting me to kiss your ass
Fuck that
I got news for you
I'm done with you
And all your lil homeboys are leaving too
Your too zoned out you can't run from truth
(Chorus)
This is my life
This is my life
This is my life
This is my therapy
This gets me by
This gets me by
This gets me by
This is the remedy
