Dying to Live ft. Do or Die, Syko, NV & H1 Lyrics

Wake up, not another day, fuck

A lot of mutters, God I fuckin hate stuff

Gotta love blue collar, just the same rut

It's bothersome, the problems and the pay cuts

It's something crucial

My last endeavor wasn't fruitful

Now my supper's food's a couple spoonful's of a Cup of Noodles

Just approval

It's all I ask but it's a tall task

On this long path when you're stuck in neutral

And so I gotta get this half time

For the last time

It's my pastime

And how I pass time

It's a mask and I'm passive with the crap I'm in

Even when I'm strapped for cash I got a stash hidin

And it's constantly thinkin to just consciously

Come to a grip responsibly

But it's comedy thinkin you'll live honestly

Once you have slipped and hit poverty

I pray to God every day that I wake up (wake up)

Knowing what it takes to survive

Man these streets so hard so I blaze up (blaze up)

I stay chiefin just to keep me from dyin

I don't wanna cry

Don't wanna cry this shit don't make sense

Don't wanna grind when my whole day's spent

I don't wanna cry

Don't wanna cry but I'm dying to live

And goddammit I been tired of this

Feels like I'm stuck in the eye of a dangerous storm

Hoping that it changes course

Know that when it rains, it pours

Stress from the gut checking years

Of the pain endured, shed

So much blood sweat and tears

That it stains the floor, left

With a puddle at my feet

Struggling to keep calm

Cuz I'm always plotting through

Trouble in the streets

So I gotta move subtle and discreet

Roll the bud up to relieve

All the stuff that's been bubblin in me

It's like I'm stuck and I'm trapped in a mudslide

And can't fuckin imagine an upside

When it's rough to adapt

And it's tough to relax

And to love and to laugh

So I just cry

I pray to God every day that I wake up (wake up)

Knowing what it takes to survive

Man these streets so hard so I blaze up (blaze up)

I stay chiefin just to keep me from dyin

I don't wanna cry

Don't wanna cry this shit don't make sense

Don't wanna grind when my whole day's spent

I don't wanna cry

Don't wanna cry but I'm dying to live

And goddammit I been tired of this

Used to have this fucking mindset

When I bust the rhymes that

I wasn't s'posed to grip the mic

And so then fuck it, I left

Let those fucking voices get to me

Couldn't hazard a hope, battered and broke

That fucking dream was dead to me

Then the years passed, I saw the desecration of hip hop

Through Kyle and Nick's plots, the pedigree

And started making beats cuz I knew they always rockin that good shit

But Mr. A2z has got the remedy, yeah

Energy sending me to the moon

And can it be, we reached another level

Won't settle, my course, heavenly

Now my prayers to God changing from childhood traumas

To acquiring commas and fuckin wit wildin mamas

And taking everything in front of me

Skinny as a kid but I ate right, grew up to be everything that you wanna be

Hotter than the Suns on a trip to Miami

My family, my Caddy, my pad, and the bad bitches that's under me

Remember back to the doubting, the stressing

Now when I'm talking to God,

I just be counting my blessings

Gaining perspective, blaze, making connections,

Haze, raising the effort, nothing awakens it better

I pray to God every day that I wake up (wake up)

Knowing what it takes to survive

Man these streets so hard so I blaze up (blaze up)

I stay chiefin just to keep me from dyin

I don't wanna cry

Don't wanna cry this shit don't make sense

Don't wanna grind when my whole day's spent

I don't wanna cry

Don't wanna cry but I'm dying to live

And goddammit I been tired of this
