[Verse 3: Meek Mill] |
|
I said the life the life |
|
The streets are a bitch and I made her my wife |
|
I made her my wife |
|
I couldn't afford but I made her my price |
|
Cause under the lights the money the cars |
|
Even the ice I wanted it all |
|
Some nights we were up selling the raw |
|
And ducking them D from a hell of charges |
|
I wanted to shine amongst with the stars |
|
I wanted to grind they telling me nah |
|
I felt like these niggas was telling me starve |
|
My mama she told me I'm headed for bars |
|
Bars, and where did it take me |
|
To a cell and a yard |
|
Running bar with the killers |
|
Talking fellas and all |
|

|
You try and try to live right |
|
But we get blinded by the life |
|
I know about it |
|
Don't judge if you know nothing bout it |
