L.I.F.E Lyrics

[Chorus]
L-is for the liars that had surrounded me
I-insecurity, my head down in these streets
F-my future, there isn’t one
E-ternal hope, and this is my life

[Verse 1]
I wake up everyday to the same ole' foster mother
I ain’t got no pictures of my mother
She was a crack fiend, nothing like Pac-mother
She didn’t make a difference
Even doe she could've mama
Shame, shame on my life
Papa tried to sell me twice
On the late night stop by
Look in my eyes, bags from the tears that I cried
And the people who lied
Telling me that this was my place
Phony tried to smile in my face
But I should of knew somethin’ was rare
Smile when she opens the mail
Kept a nice mink on her back
Meanwhile I got a goose and my gooses got patches
I’m so mad, this is me
I’m so hurt, this is me
So why should it be, but imma be alright now

[Chorus]
L-is for the liars that had surrounded me
I-insecurity: My head down in these streets
F-my future, there isn’t one
E-ternal Hope, and this is my life

[Verse 2]
I’m pregnant by a dude and he’s not 16
But, I like his style, his whip is mean
My momma told me find a man to take care of me
And he does buy me things, but he beats on me
I come to her for a little advice
She tilts her head up with a black eye,
Telling me to know my place
So, I stay, wait for my body phase
Telling myself that it’s just a pregnancy phase
When all, in reality I’m being discouraged, and disrespected, and under depression
And I don’t really blame the man
I blame my mother for not teachin’ me the different types of man
Life never understood its stand
My side of the story being that it's so consistent
18 yrs and 9months developing
Raised in prison I guess I'll never make a difference

[Chorus]
L-is for the liars that had surrounded me
I-insecurity, my head down in these streets
F-my future, there isn’t one
E-ternal hope, and this is my life

[Verse 3]
On, on doing nothing to Orphans, the least of my problems
Appears like Deja Vu, stomach starving
Free lunch, breakfast, evenly I departed
So ashamed of a life that was started
Ask God if, he could take the pain away
He made me in denial of every word I pray
Everyday it's the same old no talent
I’m feelin’ like my life is unbalanced
No telling, what tomorrow gonna look like, yea right
Wrapped up in a fast light for suicide act
Is my life set up for failure ya'll
I can care less what the people say to ya'll
We break out in rage, ventin’ all the hurt inside
Who am I, to tell you what you failed to realize
The voice that you hold within you, the voice that you are, the voice of the young people

[Chorus]
L-is for the liars that had surrounded me
I-insecurity, my head down in these streets
F-my future, there isn’t one
E-ternal hope, and this is my life
