Yeah... Uh... can I live?
Yeah... it's time to start seeing things for what they really are
Stop taking life for granted... Pursue perfection... Yeah
Verse 1:
It was all a dream 'til I woke up,
Nobody could hear what I was sayin 'til I spoke up,
At first, I was just playin, but you know what,
I fell in love, and now I'm dead serious...
I don't wanna lose everything I work for,
So the plan is to work more...
The best way out is to go in further,
I don't know how, but I know I gotta murder,
Everybody in the game this year and get away wit it,
Point Nine gon' be Arizona's favorite,
Cuz I been putting in work,
Ever since the day I clocked out as a clerk,
I'm past the point of no return,
At last the joint about to burn,
This goes out to everyone who understands,
This music is my everything, it's who I am
Hook:
I just wanna live my life...
I don't wanna fight these cancers...
I only wanna do what's right...
If only I had all the answers....
But I'm only human, so I question everything I'm doing,
And there's so much pressure, cuz perfection is what I'm pursuing
Verse 2:
We can never be perfect...
We can only come close... And for those...
who deserve it...
I propose... a toast, I hope it was worth it,
Cuz its the journey not the destination,
It's all about the trials and the tribulations,
In a cold world like this,
To remain hot, that's priceless,
So forget being a millionaire,
I'll take the money but I want to be a legend here,
I need to take care of my people,
And break bread when December's here,
And do away with the evils,
I'm trying to live drama free,
Life's like a movie, I don't know if there's a sequel,
But if there is, then it;s something that I'm trying to see
Hook:
I just wanna live my life...
I don't wanna fight these cancers...
I only wanna do what's right...
If only I had all the answers....
But I'm only human, so I question everything I'm doing,
And there's so much pressure, cuz perfection is what I'm pursuing
Verse 3:
In the pursuit to be perfect,
It's gonna take a whole lot of practice,
But I know, it's gonna be worth it,
Even though, I'm bound to get my ass kicked,
Mistakes are to be made,
I gotta get robbed to get paid,
I gotta get down to get up,
I gotta get around before I'm finally stuck,
But when I make my mark,
It shall forever remain,
Something I knew from the start,
There's no pleasure without the pain,
And life's a game,
It's not about the hand you were dealt but how you play em,
Nobody's perfect, but we striving,
To do more than just surviving
Hook:
I just wanna live my life...
I don't wanna fight these cancers...
I only wanna do what's right...
If only I had all the answers....
But I'm only human, so I question everything I'm doing,
And there's so much pressure, cuz perfection is what I'm pursuing
