Mac Dre – Life’s a Bitch
It’s all about survival
But jealous rivals make it hard for us to do this
A new photo and hip-hop lyric, everyday. All photos taken by Karlyle. Enjoy!
It’s all about survival
But jealous rivals make it hard for us to do this
I’m ’bout to go fill up a safe (Totally, dude)
We can take a boat ride
We can make a milli with no cosign
We could go to Europe
We could go to Africa
Winter in Johannesburg
It don’t really matter love
We ain’t in a competition
Ain’t nobody catching up
Young, free and black with a whole lotta stamina
When I was 27, I grew accustomed to more fear
Accumulated 10 times over throughout the years
My newfound life made all of me magnified
How many accolades do I need to block denial?
The shock value of my success put bolts in me
My first hunnit racks (Hunnits)
I blew it by the rack (Blew it)
Then I took off the hat (Hat)
Had to Dior the bag (Dior)
I just took the doors off the ‘Ghini, now I’m ridin’
Me and my b…., took a little trip
Down to the garden, took a little dip (Oh no)
Apple juice falling from her lips took a little sip, little sip
B…… come and go (You know that)
Money come and go (You know that)
Love come and go (Don’t shit last)
B…… come and go (You know that)
Money come and go (You know that)
Love come and go (Don’t shit last)
I’d rather be carried by 6 before I’m judged by 12
Everything litty, I love when it’s hot
Turned up the city, I broke off the notch
Got some more millis, I keep me a knot
I created history and made me a lot
There was a time I could drink my cares away
And drown out all of the heartaches that hurt me night and day
When the thought of you came crashin’ through, I’d have one more
But now the whiskey ain’t workin’ anymore
I need one good honky tonk angel to turn my life around
That’s reason enough for me to lay this old bottle down
A woman warm and willing, that’s what I’m looking for
‘Cause the whiskey ain’t workin’ anymore
I take a perc, then I take me a nap
Take a sip of the syrup so I could go relax
Hold on, to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringing us along
Just know you’re not alone
‘Cause I’m going to make this place your home
Coo, coo, coo!
Aight Cool!
You cool?
Coo, coo, coo!
Cool!
I’m cool
Coo, coo, coo!
Aight Cool!
You cool?
Coo, coo, coo!
Cool!
I could be Keak Sneakin an freakin but I’m coo!
I could be tellin you what you thinkin but I’m coo!
Lookin’ for a 10 on the scale, if you a 2, then I’m coo, coo, coo, coo…
Aight Cool!
I can’t take it, take it, take no more
Never felt like, felt like this before
Come on, get me, get me on the floor
DJ what you, what you waiting for?
Lodi Dodi, we likes to party
We don’t cause trouble, we don’t bother nobody
Let’s go to the beach, each
Let’s go get a wave
They say, what they gonna say?
Have a drink, clink, found the Bud Light
Bad bitches like me is hard to come by
The patron own, let’s go get it on
The zone on, yes I’m in the zone
Is it two, three? Leave a good tip
I’ma blow off my money and don’t give two shits, oh, oh
You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now, here he comes
He doesn’t look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined
When you were young
We are never, ever, ever getting back together
We are never, ever, ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never, ever, ever, ever getting back together
Like, ever
Baby, maybe
Take me, baby
I’ll go, at your lead
Drive me, crazy
You ain’t gotta persuade me
It could be fatal, wait ’til Del come back out
And act out emotions in Oakland Blackouts
Don’t you ever forget, it could be fatal
Wait ’til O come back out
And act out emotions in Oakland Blackouts
You are
Something that I
Can never forget
Fantasize
When I’m there
You will never regret
Overtime I take
My share
There is something we can do
Then you decide
What you want
If I’m the one for you
Tell me I’m the one
Tell me I’m your favorite lover
You got me
It’s stupid
I want it
Can’t fight it
She told me put my heart in the bag (In the bag)
And nobody gets hurt (No hurt)
Now I’m running from her love, I’m not fast (Fast)
So I’m making it worse (Making it worse)
Now I’m digging up a grave, from my past
I’m a whole different person (I’m a whole different person)
It’s a gift and a curse (It’s a gift and a curse)
But I cannot reverse it
Keep my fever running
If the blood cools too young you’ll never recover
And I’ll be on my way
You broke my heart and picked the pieces
Threw them in the fire to burn
Left me cold out in the rain.
But now I’m moving on without you baby
Without you by my side
I’m finally feeling free.
But I know that
The sun will shine for me
Even when the skies are grey
And I feel like I’m missing something
But the bridges build their own way
Do you remember how when you were younger
The summers all lasted forever?
Days disappeared into months, into years
Hold that feeling forever
Birdman handrub
This shit fit me like a damn glove
Shit cleaner than a hand scrub
Feel better than DJ Khaled fan love
This the rock that gave pride to a man cub
Ain’t no love in hip-hop
There ain’t no keepin’ up with the Bennetts
Ain’t no diamonds in the chain but it’s in the pendant
I only own fishbowls, but my rentals tinted
You know I’m used to movin’ units like rental tenant
Real lieutenant, God’s army
He like a doctor, he’ll never let me shot harm me
Words and Music by Jon Langford
Well I worked hard and I got lots of money
Well I tried hard but I don’t wanna stay
Yeah I’ve seen too much trouble, I felt too much pressure bubble
I knew there had to be a better way
Father, forgive me, I’m scared of the karma
‘Cause now I see women as somethin’ to nurture
Not somethin’ to conquer
Why you ready to die? You just a baby
Why them tears up under your eyes? You just a baby
Keep your head up in the sky, you just a baby
Quit chasing money, never mind, you just a baby
These Magi adore you, Adoration of the Magi
These Magi adore you
Why you wanna be born again? You just a baby
Why you playing in the streets? You just a baby
Steady runnin’ to the money, don’t stop, green light
I was looking back on my life
And all the things I’ve done to me
I’m still looking for the answers
I’m still searching for the key
The wreckage of my past keeps haunting me
It just won’t leave me alone
I still find it all a mystery
Could it be a dream?
The Road To Nowhere leads to me
Through all the happiness and sorrow
I guess I’d do it all again
Live for today and not tomorrow
It’s the wild wild west
I’m doing my best
I’m at the borderline of my faith
I’m at the hinterland of my devotion
I’m in the front line of this battle of mine
But I’m still alive
If your read the album cover by now
You know that my name is what my name is
When I came in here to try and
Do this, something I’ve never done before
Mr Jones looked at me, said to me
Don’t worry about it
Just do what you do
And do it good
I’m always sayin’ I won’t change but
I ain’t the same
Everything is different, I can’t complain
Don’t know what you missin’? Shame on you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Shame on you
Everything is strange, that’s just a game
Everybody trippin’, thrown it away
We was getting lifted, now we getting paid
Shame on you
Taste me, the salty tears on my cheek
That’s what a year-long headache does to you
I’m not okay, I feel so scattered
Don’t say I’m all that matters
Leave me, déjà vu (Hmm)
