This Life’ Songtext
von Destin Laurel

Ok let me paint you a picture
Bout a nigga that came out of no where
From a family that never had shit
That was living up out of the motel
Momma had told me go get it when I was a jit
You See it I′m grown now
I was at the shop till sun down
Watching momma do hair till sundown
I was outside selling Reeses
Nigga no recess, tryna get Rotel
At the time thought Pops ain't love me
Now he out here with me, I love him
I know he had somethings going on
I see it in myself, I know him
I just pray that I get this right
Pray my son never think I don′t love him
Kill me a nigga that touch him
You know what, huh
Lemme just got even go there
I'm tripping


Let's talk about God for right now
Can i thank God for right now
Thank God I′m surviving right now
I send all my prayers for right now
This life I live
Got so much issues
Thank God I′m dealing with them
Gotta be greater than this
Not rushin I'm just venting
Not worried ′bout my own self
I do the best that's for my kid
I go hard that′s for my kid
All this pain is for my kid
All these things do it for my son
Fuck I look like signing a bad deal
What's one more year in the struggle
When I got 20 I lived through, I know how to deal
Even though I′m tired of waiting
I gotta be patient I know how that feels
I know it get hard, but this right here gone take some time
I be looking at all the success
I can't get impatient, I know I got time
They said I would fail without college
Now they all proud, man look at they eyes
I ain't taking the wrong advice
I ain′t make it this far without God
They wanna be like us
We wanna be like him
I ain′t come this far without God no

Let's talk about God for right now
Gotta thank God for right now
Thank God I′m surviving right now
I said all my prayers for right now
This life I live
Got so much issues
Thank God I'm dealing with them
Gotta be greater than this
Not rushing I′m just venting
Not I'm worried ′bout my own self
I do the best that's for my kid
My Lord you are you are
My lord Know you won't take too long
I′ll be here my Lord
You hit right on time even when I′m you
I call you lord please have mercy on my soul my soul
I won't rush you lord but please don′t take too long
