Get My Life Right (feat. Youngboy Never Broke Again) Lyrics

[00:12.21] (I'm faded than a motherfucker)
[00:19.29] Uh, I had three outfits
[00:21.87] Didn't take out the trash, get beat with a switch
[00:24.86] Growin' up in the octagon wasn't easy
[00:26.94] The low man on the totem pole, kids used to tease me
[00:29.61] Used to fight dang near every day, I ain't lyin'
[00:31.77] Be beatin' a nigga ass and talkin' to him while I'm cryin'
[00:34.41] Uh, and that was out of anger
[00:36.82] Back then, we used to throw them things, we didn't have bangers
[00:40.04] A little later down the line,
[00:41.34] It became a time where I had to draw the linе
[00:44.22] Uh, I used to kiss my street side
[00:46.15] When my mama was at work, I usеd to sneak and drink her wine
[00:48.88] When my parents got divorced, I had to get out there and grind
[00:50.93] You probably heard me bring this subject up a few times
[00:53.66] Uh, my relative short, shot him a kite
[00:55.76] He said when he get out, he gon' get his life right
[00:57.69] I been tryna get my life right
[00:59.72] I been tryna get my life right
[01:02.16] I been tryna get my life right
[01:04.57] I been tryna get my life right
[01:06.95] I was caught up in the nightlife (Ooh)
[01:09.36] Now I'm tryna get my life right
[01:11.70] On the block, I was outside (Oh)
[01:13.88] Now I'm tryna get my life right (Oh)
[01:17.04] If you ain't notice, I been spendin' time tryna turn it over
[01:19.41] Inside the streets, due to that iron, I done lost so many soldiers
[01:21.88] From hard drugs, now I'm finally sober
[01:23.75] So blessed and I'm a slime, I'm beggin' God for to bring me closer
[01:26.13] I can never live this over
[01:27.20] Wishin' I could take the pain from off of your mama face
[01:29.65] And my money could never buy the cure to heal her heartbreak
[01:32.01] Only think that I can say
[01:33.38] Can you join me on this journey?
[01:34.62] I been workin' for to see some better days
[01:36.57] My heart gettin' colder, but it ain't over,
[01:38.99] I know I'm gettin' older and I'm cryin' for a change
[01:41.40] Tell youngin, "Put that iron down, I'll buy you a new chain"
[01:43.57] Go to school and show some progress, I'll buy you a new Range
[01:46.11] I ain't the one for to look up to, but I can show you a few things
[01:48.83] Like, these people just wan' see you lose, you who entertain
[01:50.92] I ain't the only one that's broken, take a look inside the game
[01:53.32] Tell my grandma that I'm focused, I became a made man
[01:55.58] I been tryna get my life right
[01:57.10] I been tryna get my life right
[01:59.55] I been tryna get my life right
[02:01.95] I been tryna get my life right
[02:04.55] I was caught up in the nightlife
[02:06.95] Now I'm tryna get my life right
[02:09.38] On the block, I was outside
[02:11.72] Now I'm tryna get my life right
[02:14.92] Any time I think devilsih, I holler at God
[02:17.33] He answers me back 'cause that's my side hob
[02:20.58] Doin' hella extra shit'll get you killed
[02:22.43] It's all fun and games 'til shit get real
[02:24.50] You can call me a square 'cause I'm wiser and older
[02:26.93] One thing about a square, it's hard to roll a square over
[02:29.63] Uh, I learned that when I was a teen
[02:31.79] What people fail to realize is all the game come from fiends
[02:35.27] They got hella knowledge like a scholar
[02:36.86] On the streets, they doin' bad,
[02:37.99] But in the pen', they some shot callers
[02:39.74] That's why you don't judge a book by its cover
[02:41.38] Build with each other, stop tryna kill one another
[02:43.76] My tank on E from off of forty, I been known to get it started
[02:46.15] Whole life sad, on drugs bad, I ain't want them to record it
[02:48.53] Fell a victim to some situations, left me real heartless
[02:50.95] I'm promotin' peace, this for me, I ain't worried about no charges
[02:53.34] Gotta carry out my plan, I ain't leavin' how I came
[02:55.70] All this money, I'd be a fool if I remained the same
[02:58.16] Me and prisoners inside a private plane
[03:00.08] Headed to another jail, you don't wanna feel my pain
[03:02.42] And I just wanna live real slowly,
[03:04.08] Let 'em talk down on me, so many kids I gotta feed
[03:06.76] Not to a judge, I hit my knees every time and plead
[03:09.31] Like, God, can you please save me?
[03:10.93] Help me stay up out the streets, lil' Top
[03:12.32] I been tryna get my life right
[03:14.17] I been tryna get my life right
[03:16.40] I been tryna get my life right
[03:18.80] I been tryna get my life right
[03:21.40] I was caught up in the nightlife
[03:23.72] Now I'm tryna get my life right
[03:26.14] On the block, I was outside
[03:28.59] Now I'm tryna get my life right
[03:36.56]
