They say the good die young
So the bad die old
Guess we somewhere in the middle
So just pray for my soul
All I want to do is right
But all I'm seeing is wrong
And I'm trying to stay strong
But its taking its toll
And I ain't no better than you
So when you playing this song
And you feeling how I'm feeling
Just know that you ain't alone
Everyday you wake up
Another day that it's on
So we got to wake up
Before what we seeing is gone
Since the begging
The mirror of what I've written
Real has been my description
Ain't never been nothing different
Love me or hate me
Just know its me you lovin' or hatin'
So there will never be an issue
With what judgement your making
High school I knew who I was
I had direction
A leader I don't follow nobody
Always progressing
So every girl in highschool a ho
Was the perception
Coz lame niglas lied on their d**k
To get accepted
Takin' a girls purity to get a sense of security
Now she insecure
She get older and she ain't sure of me
And I ain't sayin' I'm an angel or saint
But one of these days
I might need her to be wifey
But she can't
Coz now she don't trust niglas
All the time f**k nigas
Coz if she don't she thinking
Then no niga gon' f**k with her
Both male and female
Lost in misdirection
It's a crazy world
When you live in a misconception
They say the good die young
So the bad die old
Guess we somewhere in the middle
So just pray for my soul
All I want to do is right
But all I'm seeing is wrong
And I'm trying to stay strong
But its taking its toll
And I ain't no better than you
So when you playing this song
And you feeling how I'm feeling
Just know that you ain't alone
Everyday you wake up
Another day that it's on
So we got to wake up
Before what we seeing is gone
She had the university trying to fit in
Blowing intuition
Was a good girl back at the crib
But now she different
Blowin' trees she was never into it
It's the influence of her roomy
She with it coz all her friends do it
Back home she knew people
Now she with these new people
She don't know herself no more
Now she feeling like two people
Niggas in the dorm 3am
Thinking they cool people
Trying to keep up with
This bullshit can consume people
Talking loud wrong crowd
Ya'll f**king the same dudes
Feeling like you can't move
This painful this ain't you
You stay loose
Cranberry juice and grey goose
Can't shake ya head at them hoes
Coz you doing what they do
Niggas play you too far gone
Who gon' save you
Funny how shit could have been
If you had stayed you
Out of control on the path of misdirection
It's the crazy life
When you live in misconception
They say the good die young
So the bad die old
Guess we somewhere in the middle
So just pray for my soul
All I want to do is right
But all I'm seeing is wrong
And I'm trying to stay strong
But its taking its toll
And I ain't no better than you
So when you playing this song
And you feeling how I'm feeling
Just know that you ain't alone
Everyday you wake up
Another day that it's on
So we got to wake up
Before what we seeing is gone
The coolest niga in high school
Was exactly that
The coolest niga in high school
Time passed right by you
Passing days of glory
Keep telling them war stories
Leaching off baby mommas
He never set his priorities
Already finding
His best days is behind him
The hoes that he used to f**k
Is what defines him
Sleeping on different couches
Got seeds in three different houses
But if you ask about him
He barely know nothing bout em'
I don't want him around me
All I know about him
Is he broke and he brag
About being in and out the county
And since when is not being shit the shit
When there's only one life to live
I hope you listen huh
Still alive done living at twenty five
Stuck in the hood
But never got out coz he never tried
Look check your brother
But check yourself first
The truth hurts
But we can all change after this verse
They say the good die young
So the bad die old
Guess we somewhere in the middle
So just pray for my soul
All I want to do is right
But all I'm seeing is wrong
And I'm trying to stay strong
But its taking its toll
And I ain't no better than you
So when you playing this song
And you feeling how I'm feeling
Just know that you ain't alone
Everyday you wake up
Another day that it's on
So we got to wake up
Before what we seeing is gone gone
Shits real It's too real
