Huey, T-Pain - Glad 2 Be Alive lyrics

Yeah, I made it up out the hood my God
Thanks to hit's committed
Jive in the building
(You know, big edge, G, I see you baby
What up miff?)
It still make a nigga sit back
Think and wonder though, ya know, damn

But, first of all I thank
God for a better day
Gettin' money, no drugs, found a better way
No more shootin' and fightin'
Posted in alley ways runnin' from cops
Throwin' rocks and gang ways
Remember gettin' monkey wrenches
Turnin' hydrants on anytime of the day
Killas turn into fire zones
Couldn' make it through the hood
Without it goin' down jumpin' niggas
Punkin' niggas to throw around
I sit and wonder if I was still there
Then what would I be
If I was watchin' the late news
Then what would I see
Another homicide, another robbery
But Huey made it out now
And that ain't stoppin' me
I know it's niggas hatin' on me
Ain't nothin' new i let my big ass rims
Give 'em somethin' to do
Third, I watchin' my back cause niggas plot
It feel good to be alive but still it got me
Sittin' on a Cadillac
Wishin' everythin' was still good at home
Even though I know it's not
Otherwise I wouldn't be gone
I can admit that I'm bad
I got away from the sad things
Every thing that can make a nigga mad
(man man)
I gotta say, man it feels good to be alive

Look, not only it feel good just to be alive
But, it feel good to have
Your homies on your side
And they ain't mad cause they see
They nigga on the rise
And they tell me, Huey do what you gotta do
I gotta shot
And they know I wanna see 'em outta trouble
They like you other hood
Well nigga look we got the bubble
Otherwise hustle to get what a nigga need
And most of 'em grown
Gotta take curl they seats
So they out there on the
Grind with coke and weed
And continue to be rappers CA impede
That's why I got 'em
Cause they always had me
And if we had beef, everybody had heat
Back in the days everybody had to eat
If you went into kempt everybody had to creep
To be supportive
I'm like go ahead make your profit
It feel good to be alive, but still it got me

Sittin' on a Cadillac
Wishin' everythin' was still good at home
Even though I know it's not
Otherwise I wouldn't be gone
I can admit that I'm bad
I got away from the sad things
Every thing that can make a nigga mad
(man man)
I gotta say, man it feels good to be alive

As far as family, everybody going through
Oldest brother locked up
So it's mine and Luke
But were Trojan generations we
Gonna make it through
It's fed up that my cousin
Had to make the news
Shot five times and that ain't
Even a better place
And all livin' cousins is
Wishin' for better day
I'm doing good for to be
Raised without a papa
It feels good to be alive
But still it got me

Sittin' on a Cadillac
Wishin' everythin' was still good at home
Even though I know it's not
Otherwise I wouldn't be gone
I can admit that I'm bad
I got away from the sad things
Every thing that can make a nigga mad
(man man)
I gotta say, man it feels good to be alive
