Song | Death of Me |
Artist | Andy Mineo |
Album | Never Land |
[Verse 1: Andy Mineo] | |
Yeah, pocket full of boarding passes | |
Huh, I don't know what city I was in last | |
But I'm out here trying to make an impact | |
Same time keep myself intact | |
Say, take it, take it easy A like it's gym class | |
Tell me how I could? there's slaves in world | |
Before I die I'm trying to see us end that | |
So I move fast, Ramadan | |
Ugh, most fast, autobahn | |
Who cares if I ever get a grammy nom | |
If my soul takes L's, phenomenon | |
Still can't believe I get paid for this | |
As a kid all I did was pray for this | |
Now I'm living out my dream, craziest | |
Got me really feeling like I was made for this! | |
At the same time never knew how dangerous | |
It could be when lives start getting changed to this | |
When somebody say you they favorite | |
Guess it carry some weight to it | |
You know, cuz ugh | |
That's power and that's influence, the temptation is | |
To use it for myself and serve somebody else | |
I'm sitting here buggin just rememberin | |
What them rappers showed me, ugh | |
How to bag a honey, stack the money | |
They said I was mac by the number of shorties that I could smash | |
Now I'm waiting on that matrimony | |
Cuz, I've been changed up, lil homie came up | |
It's depressing, kicking with dudes I used to look up to | |
They still on that same stuff | |
I ain't have no role models, now I gotta be one | |
I bought the lie hiphop sold me, man I want a refund.. | |
[Hook: Andy Mineo] | |
I feel like it's the real me | |
Feel me? | |
Yeah, I been changed | |
But I'm still me | |
What I am now | |
Not what I will be | |
I'm trying to give life | |
But this could be the death of me | |
Oh | |
The death of me | |
This could be the death of me | |
Oh | |
(just trying to give life, what I do for a living could kill me) | |
Yeah-yeah-yeah | |
The death of me | |
This could be the death of me | |
(just trying to give life, what I do for a living could kill me) | |
Yeah-yeah-yeah | |
[Verse 2: Andy Mineo] | |
Look, mama feel like she losing me | |
To this lifestyle that's consuming me | |
I travel every weekend | |
Even when I'm weak, man | |
You know what that to do to me | |
Huh? | |
Back pain, back pain | |
Sleeping on planes and feeling like Bruce Wayne | |
Blackout all night on that stage | |
Man, I need a batcave just to get away | |
Uhh | |
Jesus retreated to speak with his Father | |
I know that I need it | |
My career been growing | |
But tell me where I'm going if my time with God is depleted | |
(Nowhere) | |
God, I'm sorry, I mean it | |
All I want to do is walk with you but | |
My priorities wrong, I talk about you more than I talk with you | |
Uhh | |
One of my mentors taught me | |
Whenever things get foggy | |
If you wanna grow in God | |
It's not complicated | |
It just costy | |
Gotta spend that time, currency | |
Uhh, overtime gets to learn to be | |
Uhh, strong enough to admit I'm weak | |
To meet with God I'll need his needs | |
Yeah, 2014 bout' to be different | |
I think my favorite word will be no | |
Opportunities come and they go, but | |
None of them is worth my soul | |
That's somethin' that you can't afford, and | |
Got me thinking what's most important | |
Uhh, I get kicks watching grown men in line for some Jordans | |
Nowadays, time is fortune, but chasing fortune is all consuming | |
I feel like God is calling dudes | |
They just wanna play Call of Duty | |
This that Peter Pan | |
At the dinner table out in Never Land | |
Eating, can't nobody see it but me and my boys | |
That's the way I wanna keep it | |
Huh | |
Aye, I lost a couple friends to this new season | |
Jealousy and hate for a few reasons | |
Used to be down, now whassup? | |
Guess everybody around when the fun's up | |
Yeah | |
Got me feeling like Céli Dé | |
Women wanna holla, I just tell em' that I'm taken | |
Even if I wasn't I'd be slow for the taking | |
I don't if they love me or the money I'm making | |
(I don't know!) | |
Ain't no way to really tell | |
Where somebody heart truly at | |
Bad girls coming at me looking good | |
Showing off they body, that's a booby trap | |
Been low, but I never let my guard down | |
Huh? | |
Buddy, I ain't crazy | |
You ain't bout' to catch me slipping | |
Put a million dollar baby! | |
(No sir!) | |
Me and Dre trying to eat good | |
Cutting out the nonsense | |
On the road trying to give life | |
Huh? | |
But, I might lose mine in the process | |
I ain't have no role models, now I gotta be one | |
I bought the lie hip-hop sold me, man I want a refund.. | |

Yeah-yeah-yeah | |
The death of me | |
This could be the death of me | |
(just trying to give life, what I do for a living could kill me) | |
