[AK - What's Life? lyrics]
Always asking me like there's a right
Answer to that
I can't stand when that keeps popping
Up but listen here in fact
It's perspective shit don't neglect
The shit that you
Done big or small you so hesitant
To give yourself props when you
Take that extra shift
To earn more and fill empty
Space in that fridge but, you blame your job
Say the shit sucks even
Though you working hard
Put yourself down say you
Don't deserve it nah
And with that mindset there's no
Way you ain't hurting all
That negative shit adds up and
Then opportunities passed off
Don't take this bad but is you really sad?
Or mad you ain't in a mansion with a fast car
But, you write it off like it'll never happen
Waste time tripping rather than just stepping
The direction you feel necessary
For your happiness
I hope I got you second guessing
Your thoughts from the past
Cause, I promise it could happen
Give your all is all I ask
Then sit back and watch the magic
And I ain't even where wanna be yet
But, I believe I'll be there it's
The hope it's trust in yourself
You may have a few friends
But, I know they don't
Spend no time with the voice in your head
Well? That's you that's your muhfucking
Best friend and you
Wrong if you ain't tryna protect him
Please, understand that nobody has
All the answers
Cause if we did then I'd have the
One for the question you asking
But no, I don't, and that's dope, look
Close, nothing but open ended questions
Up to us to get the message
That's the thing, it's selective
What that brings is the blessing of making
Life what we choose it to be
This how I view it for me
I'm a fucking king you never seen
On a throne that you ain't ever seen cause I
Built it on my own
If you really believe in me you gotta know
That we ain't gonna stop
Till we motherfucking blow up
I don't see the dollars I see more love
All about confiding we ain't hiding
So they know us I been tryna get it ever
Since I was a youngin
I been out here fucking popping out
In la boy I'm stuntin I feel great
Boy, I feel amazing
Everybody praising they be saying I'm great
And I be tryna thank them
Back with all these things but
I know that never does
Enough for what they done for me, yeah
You matter most never fold, you don't know
All the things that'll come from the work
They don't see like a ghost
Like a rolls, gotta choice
Do you want that Honda Civic or a Royce?
Say you don't care, that's a lie
That's the mindset of somebody
That's gon' settle, that ain't you?
We both know that
Take your throne back you belong
There but you do you
I can not make that decision for you
You vision just cloudy that paranoia
Remember the reason you on this voyage
And because of that you ain't
Always gon be buoyant
Just pray to god and know
He got you it's okay
Soon all your problems turn to
Dollars and no way
That ain't gon' cause you more
Problems it's a sure thing
That stress of making profit is gon'
Be nowhere to be found
Cause the people that stayed down
When I needed em help me find, why I'm alive
Now I proudly can say I'm the reason
I'm a fucking king you never seen
On a throne that you ain't ever seen cause I
Built it on my own
If you really believe in me you gotta know
That we ain't gonna stop
Till we motherfucking blow up
I don't see the dollars I see more love
All about confiding we ain't hiding
So they know us I been tryna get it ever
Since I was a youngin
I been out here fucking popping out
In la boy I'm stuntin I feel great
Boy, I feel amazing
Everybody praising they be saying I'm great
And I be tryna thank them
Back with all these things but
I know that never does
Enough for what they done for me, yeah
