Life Like ft. Iman Omari Lyrics

You've spent so much time explaining who Curtiss King is, that you've neglected D'Wan

Now is the perfect time to allow him to speak up

I'm livin' my life like this might be my last day

I'm livin' my life like I can't have no bad days

I look at my wife like this might be my soulmate

I look at my child like this boy got my old face

I look at my bank and feel I'm way too smart to not be rich

But I got faith cause I know I put all my heart in this

I hit the store to get some food up off my grocery list

I read the price and made a face like better not be bitch

I feel I've been grumpier than usual

When I'm around a person that's delusional

Every second I am closer to a funeral

So trying to waste my time I don't find humorous

A couple years back I came way too close to losing this

I only say that to remind me not to lose again

I look inside the fucking mirror and say who's the man

Ten toes down still I flew like a stewardess

I strive, knowing that we live and we die

Coming from the East Side

I'm just protecting my life

I don't wanna complain

I'm just tryna maintain

Know you feel the same way

But you dont wanna stake claim

Im just protecting my life

Sometimes I feel like I'm invincible just not today

Some days I wanna be invisible and hide away

Sometimes I argue for the simple fact I yearn debates

I almost quit and then I sipped the yerba mate

I be obsessing over thoughts I know that's temporary

And I be stressing over losses that's unnecessary

Today I jot too many things in my itinerary

How many minutes did that cost without a secretary

Granny used to say my eyes are bigger than my stomach

And if you get another slice of pie you gon' vomit

You'd think that I eventually listen to those instructions

But 30 years later I'm still making adjustments

There's not a blueprint I made it when I jumped out the plane

I am the first one that's doing it but it's no complaints

I couldn't ruin it history got a special place

For Curtiss King though at times I might lose my way

I strive, knowing that we live and we die

Coming from the East Side

I'm just protecting my life

I don't wanna complain

I'm just tryna maintain

Know you feel the same way

But you dont wanna stake claim

Im just protecting my life

I removed my music from streaming not only because the payouts are just wild

But also because they don't give me an opportunity to even communicate with you

If you weren't here I wouldn't have a reason to share my music

So I thank you for listening

I just want you to know taking my music down wasn't some kind of punishment

But I do think it's kinda funny that you over here on the thrift shop

You call it streaming I call it the thrift shop

You should come down to the Gucci store

It ain't no lies

You feel me
