Lyrical Analysis of...
Life
- [Verse 1]
- What is life?
- Life’s a battle, no referee, no breaks, no time outs, no guarantees
- It’s like a maze with no exit sign, you’re blind,
- Trapped inside your own mind, tryna rewind time
- And every time you rise, it pulls you back down,
- Chains on your ankles, you're stuck on the ground
- Every step feels like a war,
- And every win feels like a chore, but you don't know the score?
- It’s like the world’s keeping tabs on my pain,
- And every tear I cry just pours into the rain
- What’s the gain? Why do I keep playin' this game?
- Why does it feel like I’m the only one to blame?
- [Chorus]
- What is life? Just tell me what’s the meaning,
- Every day I’m waking up screaming
- Every night I’m fighting my demons
- What is life? I’m tired of life, I’m tired of bleeding
- [Verse 2]
- What are friends?
- Friends are ghosts, they haunt when you’re lost,
- They smile, but the cost is a knife when you’re soft
- They say they’re ridin' with you, but when the road gets rough,
- They vanish like smoke, 'cause you ain’t enough
- I’ve been stabbed in the back so many times I’m numb,
- I could write a damn novel with the stories I’ve spun
- But I keep my guard up, my fists stay clenched,
- Cause' I'm not no retard, bent for revenge
- I bet when I hit success, they circle back like vultures,
- But I see through the lies, I see through the masks,
- I see through the fake hugs and the fake laughs
- [Chorus]
- What is life? Just tell me what’s the meaning,
- Every day I’m waking up screaming
- Every night I’m fighting my demons
- What is life? I’m tired of life, I’m tired of bleeding
- [Bridge]
- What is money?
- Money’s a sickness, a virus in the veins
- It changes people’s faces, it rewires their brains
- It’s the devil in disguise, the puppet master,
- It turns love into greed and trust into disaster
- It’s the root of the evil, the poison in the soil,
- It’s what makes the honest man disloyal
- And the ones who never called, now they’re hittin’ my line,
- Like, “Yo, remember me? We go way back in time!”
- Nah, I remember the silence when I was broke,
- I remember the laughs when I was the joke
- Now you wanna act like we’re family, close?
- Sorry, I’m allergic to fake, I might choke
- [Chorus]
- What is life? Just tell me what’s the meaning,
- Every day I’m waking up screaming
- Every night I’m fighting my demons
- What is life? I’m tired of life, I’m tired of bleeding
- [Outro]
- Maybe life’s just a test, or maybe it’s a curse,
- Maybe we’re meant to fight 'til we’re buried in the dirt
- But if I’m still here, if I’m still breathing,
- Then maybe there’s a reason, maybe there’s a reason
- What is life? Maybe I’ll never know,
- But I’ll keep walking this road, even if it’s cold
- And when the day comes and I’m six feet deep,
- I’ll rest knowing I gave everything, no retreat success bet
