Feeling like a king, rolling on that new Porsche
|
Hand on the steering wheel, drowning in my own thoughts
|
Photos in my mind, pictures of my dead friends
|
Thinking bout the time when we was just some kids
|
Then caught up in the life, we was far from innocent
|
Many different nights, and life could have been the end
|
Take a deep breath and inhale all the fresh air
|
Think about life it's a blessing just to be here
|
Phone calls for my dogs that's behind bars
|
Trying to keep hope, 20 years to the parole board
|
God damn, repercussions of the game
|
You go from a bench to a number and a name
|
A big homie wrote me a [?]
|
5 years of balling they worth to a life
|
So never give up only losers don't try
|
Don't look back thank God that you're alive
|
|
My hat real low, money on my mind
|
Dance till 7 got a model in my ride
|
I got homies in the pen, homies in the sky
|
Think about the drama in my life that I survived
|
I'm just glad to be alive, glad to be alive
|
Pop another bottle, we gonna celebrate tonight
|
I'm just glad to be alive, glad to be alive
|
Fuck what you saying I'm just glad to be alive
|
|
Glad to be breathing, enjoying my freedom
|
Hugging my son, me telling him I need him
|
Looking in his eyes while I try to blend his future
|
Praying that he never does the things that I used to
|
He won't be no dope boy, not a gun clapper
|
He won't go to jail he'll be better than a rapper
|
Many tears lost on my home boys caskets
|
Fatherless sons in this world young bastards
|
Holding on my champagne bottle as I think back, hustling
|
In and out of town man I did that
|
Picture me sitting in the cell through the night
|
On the floor quiet sharpening my knife
|
Product of a violent neighborhood and a ghetto
|
Got above the street but it seems I can't let go
|
Many different times that I could have been gone
|
But I got a chance, to really live on
|
|
My hat real low, money on my mind
|
Dance till 7 got a model in my ride
|
I got homies in the pen, homies in the sky
|
Think about the drama in my life that I survived
|
I'm just glad to be alive, glad to be alive
|
Pop another bottle, we gonna celebrate tonight
|
I'm just glad to be alive, glad to be alive
|
Fuck what you saying I'm just glad to be alive
|
|
Yeah, I survived drugs, I survived beats
|
I survived shoot outs in the middle of the street
|
I watched thug niggas go to jail and turn sweet
|
I watched friends die told my son that they was sleep
|
Feels like we in up in the grave or in the feds
|
Praying 80 [?]
|
Could have been laid on the ground but now it's dead
|
But it wasn't in the plan, it was meant for me to live
|
|
My hat real low, money on my mind
|
Dance till 7 got a model in my ride
|
I got homies in the pen, homies in the sky
|
Think about the drama in my life that I survived
|
I'm just glad to be alive, glad to be alive
|
Pop another bottle, we gonna celebrate tonight
|
I'm just glad to be alive, glad to be alive
|
Fuck what you saying I'm just glad to be alive.
