Life Be My Song

[DMX] Ask me if I cry I'll tell you why I can Come on! [Hook] I'm gonna go hard Whether I'm right or wrong Till the dead and gone It's on! What ya'll really want?! Bring it on I'mma let life be my song [Repeat Hook] [DMX] How I live is simple Walk through the streets Talk to the beats New York! I'mma eat I never had a problem with surviving No problem with getting down, busting my guns, or ruff rydin' Cats talk slick but I talk slicker My shits for real cause I'm that nigga The reason that you hurtin' is you gotta take your problems Straight to the lord, no body else can solve them(?) See what I see but look through my eyes The devil is a liar the truth never lies We all got issues Shit that we go thru Shit that we been thru Shit that we won't do The pain that we bring upon ourself For no reason, is the worst! That's why I say I'm blessed with the curse The Lord gave it all to me And in the process, I lost my soul Damn! the devil got a hold In my mind, I'm like a little boy Lost in crime Like the healthy nigga that the devil forced into dying The lord knows I'm trying But at the same time You hear the nigga with the weight of the world! Why you gave it to Earl? [Hook] To live is to suffer And I'm living it up Face everyday chin up I ain't giving it up Cause if I ain't giving a fuck The who will?! So I hope for the best Knowing that its all uphill Sometimes I wonder what's lifes about Sometimes I wonder why I take the wrong route Then turn around and go out And no doubt, the fate in mine is blind So whatever, fuck it, I'mma roll out We all go through the motions We get different notions We each have our own ocean That we can either drown or float Like the vessels that we are Vessels that would carry many far Dont know what to say, when you talking Dont know who you gone see, when you walking If you dont know how much of what you do is dirt 3 things you dont know gonna get you hurt! Nigga! [Hook x4]
