Lyrics
Yeah
Woo
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, woo, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, live
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, woo, hey, yeah
Right, right, we gotta stay alive,
Right, right, we gotta stay alive
Right, we gotta stay alive
Right, right, we gotta stay alive
Right, right, we gotta stay alive
Right, right, we gotta stay alive
Right, right, we gotta stay alive
I've been rapping since a youngin
Call me predator, cause on these tracks I be huntin
They be laying out mats at my show now cause I be stuntin
I be kickin' and flippin' and spendin' time to get some lunchin
Time for me to punch in, onetime they hit me
Can y'all meet me in the kitchen
I grab my notepad because my spirit feelin' shifted
My homie just got lifin' on the news, it's a killin
A **** feelin' sick but ain't no way I'm missin' dinner
That beat starts to knockin' and them hands start to choppin
I write to stay alive because these bullets ain't no stoppin
Coincidence is common, takin' life, that shit is poppin
I'm just relievin' stressin', ain't no tellin' when it's droppin
It's time to go and suit up, all my brothers pull your boots up
It's all about your growthin', don't you let em' pull your boots up
Give everything because we got to stay alive
Better with every verse and I ain't even seen my prime
Prime, yeah, Prime, yeah
I'm with some homies I done got it out the mud with
I'm with some homies that'll probably get the plug lit
So you better watch your outlet
All this shit you outpicked
If it be a problem, I address it like a outfit
Survival of the fittest, baby, you don't measure up
Tony B. the fittest, okay, quit with all the cap
Before I knock you out your fitted
I just deliver the message, boy, I hope you get it, yeah
Special delivery, and I'm the whole package
Flows to go and some fly kicks to match it
And I'm already lit, so no need to match it
And you don't want no smoke, so I'mma puff, puff, pass it
And I've been going dummy, baby, I've been on my Patrick
I've been going dummy, baby, I've been on my
Ayo, I've been needing leverage
Trippin' while I'm sippin' on this alcoholic beverage
Tryna stay alive and tryna master my progression
Surround myself with positivity cause it's infectious
But when you broken, stressin', shit can have you feelin' desperate
Chillin' with my goddess cause she balance my aggression
Talk to the ancestors cause she know I need protection
I'm tryna stay alive, I use my mind as a weapon
But a lot of **** dying, so I keep my Smith and Wesson
Gotta understand the type of shit you manifesting
If you ain't speaking life into your life, you disconnected
Don't try to play the victim cause you only self-projecting
These self-inflicted wounds got you stuck with no direction
Tryna smoke the pain away and ease the depression
Talk to God every night, I need every blessing
In this game of life, don't lose to your imperfections
Gotta make adjustments and you try to stay alive
You gotta stay up, right
Yo, **** drawing, keep it copasthetic, open-headed
Gotta stay on pace cause some people hoping I won't forget it
Red lines separate suckas from out my circle
Like purple nurple, they hurt you, then pull a Urkel
Ask you if they did that, gash you up, don't pass me up and sit back
My wifey bad as fuck, she make like six racks, met her kick back
Floatin' and toting, my **** rollin', she fully open
I'm going coast and watch them say he did that
Eastside **** gotta stay alive, made it past 25
Counting all my blessings, man, I'm on the rise, they mortified
Round my brothers up to get these ducats up, I'm on the rush like big time
Tell em it's that big rhyme, I'm two-steppin' like Ciara on my big prime
Stuff your money up cause you can't get mine, nickles pennies and dimes
Man, I need it all like a rich line, all your money ****, gotta dig lines
For real
Flip through the pages of some passages I wrote
Looking for lines to give these young **** some hope
Tryna find the perfect quote, all the while still on the ropes
Since the 90s I've been trying to keep this water out my boat
Let me float on to a better idea or counterargument
Why yes it's true, the police do be targeting
And yes it's true, these businesses they be marketing
Profit off our losses like Saturday morning bargaining for **** at auctions
So I make my moves cautious, slow and steady, ain't no rushing, any missteps could cost us
Counted up all my losses, it's all that I was winning
Look back over my life and realize I was sinning when I choose against self
I'm boxing with God, ain't no winning that fight
I done measured the odds, they say living is hard
That's if you believe it or become like the wind
And blow with the seasons, study the reasons
Ain't no reason more important than my family eating
Ain't no beat that's more important than this air that I'm breathing
Plan to see another 40+, don't wake me I'm dreaming
I was 16 when my mama said I went off the deep end
Backstroking through hellfire, high cause I'm chiefing
Hey, high cause I'm chiefing
Right, what you mean
We got that vibe that'll steam like Listerine
It's peace vibes over here homie, don't intervene
The averages and time is timeless, so pull down your motherfucking calendars
We move the breeze, achoo I sneeze on the challenges
The anger within, we're having them fight cause they can't handle us
It's deeper than that, we doing what we do, see we ain't hating on that
Control what I create? Nah, we ain't waiting on that
Cause we the ones, you tripping, yeah I said it, we the balance
I'm trying to uphold the children I mold, create their own allowance
And don't need me, can't never stop me, I will kick you like Rocky
Leave them talking, never trusting a homie who's talking choppy
No, do not be surprised, they written dreams like Enterprise
I analyze these folks, they be out here playing to victimize
Stay alive, even when we transcend
Negative vibes, shit, we'll handle it, you can send them in
That's right
And deliver this message to the world
That we must arm ourselves
Right, right, we gotta stay alive
Right, right, we gotta stay alive
Right, right, we gotta stay alive
Right, right, we gotta stay alive
We gotta stay alive
