Lil Xtra - As It Is lyrics
[Lil Xtra - As It Is lyrics]
Do my thing in the night time
I'm having dreams in the daylight
Don't give a damn if it's not right
To the minds that can't see
That I'm not defined by
The cash in my billfold, yeah
Or my songs on the billboard
I'm defined by the action I take
For the difference I make
The kids aren't alright
And I know I'm negative
But you wouldn't believe
What you'd see when you develop it
Oh, I want to be a
Pulitzer prize winning piece
But I'm all out of focus
And my edges are creased, no no
'Cause I can't be your lifeline
I hope that you know that I tried so
Very hard before I went and fucked
It up I always do
If I could be what you need
I guess this might be different
But as it stands I need to leave
To keep my wit's about me
'Cause nothing's the same
I don't think this will grow
'Cause you think I'm a pain
And I think that it shows
And I think I should stay
But you want me to go
I think I love you but I
Don't want you to know, no no
I think I lost myself but it's all the same
And you can keep your dirt or
Throw it on my name
Yeah, I know it hurts, life is full of pain
But it still goes on, isn't that a shame?
'Cause I can't be your lifeline
I hope that you know that I tried so
Very hard before I went and fucked
It up I always do
If I could be what you need
I guess this might be different
But as it stands I need to leave
To keep my wit's about me
Keep my wit's about me
Keep my wit's about me
I'm having dreams in the daylight
Don't give a damn if it's not right
To the minds that can't see
That I'm not defined by
The cash in my billfold, yeah
Or my songs on the billboard
I'm defined by the action I take
For the difference I make
The kids aren't alright
And I know I'm negative
But you wouldn't believe
What you'd see when you develop it
Oh, I want to be a
Pulitzer prize winning piece
But I'm all out of focus
And my edges are creased, no no
'Cause I can't be your lifeline
I hope that you know that I tried so
Very hard before I went and fucked
It up I always do
If I could be what you need
I guess this might be different
But as it stands I need to leave
To keep my wit's about me
'Cause nothing's the same
I don't think this will grow
'Cause you think I'm a pain
And I think that it shows
And I think I should stay
But you want me to go
I think I love you but I
Don't want you to know, no no
I think I lost myself but it's all the same
And you can keep your dirt or
Throw it on my name
Yeah, I know it hurts, life is full of pain
But it still goes on, isn't that a shame?
'Cause I can't be your lifeline
I hope that you know that I tried so
Very hard before I went and fucked
It up I always do
If I could be what you need
I guess this might be different
But as it stands I need to leave
To keep my wit's about me
Keep my wit's about me
Keep my wit's about me
