LYRICS

This life shit, this life shit is like

Is like bugged the fuck out, son, for real

See, to live is to suffer

But to survive…

Well, that’s to find meaning in the suffering

 

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

(I will hold you down)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I gots to get up

Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up

(‘Cause I got your back, I got your back)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

(Oh, the Lord is with you now)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I gots to get up

Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up

(And He got your back, He got your back)

 

I’ve been through mad different phases like mazes to find my way

And now I know that happy days are not far away

If I’m strong enough I’ll live long enough to see my kids

Doin’ somethin’ more constructive with their time than bids

I know because I been there, now I’m in there

Sit back and look at what it took for me to get there

First came the bullshit, the drama with my mama

She got on some fly shit so I split and said that I’ma

Be that seed that doesn’t need much to succeed

Strapped with mad greed and a heart that doesn’t bleed

I’m ready for the world or at least I thought I was

Baggin’ niggas when I caught a buzz

For thinkin’ about how short I was

Goin’ too fast, it wouldn’t last, but yo I couldn’t tell

Group homes and institutions prepared my ass for jail

They put me in a situation forcin’ me to be a man

When I was just learnin’ to stand without a helping hand

Damn, was it my fault, somethin’ I did

To make a father leave his first kid at seven doin’ my first bid?

Back on the scene at fourteen with a scheme

To get more cream than I’d ever seen in a dream

And by all means I will be livin’ high off the hog

And I never gave a fuck about much but my dog

That’s my only mothafucka I hit off with my last

Just another lil nigga headed nowhere fast

 

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

(I will hold you down)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I gots to get up

Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up

(‘Cause I got your back, I got your back)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

(Oh, the Lord is with you now)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I gots to get up

Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up

(And He got your back, He got your back)

 

That ain’t the half, shit gets worse as I get older

Actions become bolder, heart got colder

Chip on my shoulder that I dared a nigga to touch

Didn’t need a clique ’cause I scared a nigga that much

One deep with the pit startin’ shit for kicks

Catchin’ Vicks, throwin’ bricks, gettin’ by bein’ slick

Used to get high, just to get by

Used to have to puff my L in the morning before I could fly

Ate somethin’, a couple of forties made me hate somethin’

I did some coke, now I’m ready to take somethin’

Three years later showin’ signs of stress

Didn’t keep my hair cut or give a fuck how I dressed

I’m possessed by the darker side, livin’ the cruddy life

Shit like this kept a nigga with a bloody knife

Wanna make records but I’m fuckin’ it up

I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

 

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

(I will hold you down)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I gots to get up

Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up

(‘Cause I got your back, I got your back)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

(Oh, the Lord is with you now)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I gots to get up

Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up

(And He got your back, He got your back)

Wasn’t long before I hit rock bottom

Niggas talkin’ shit, like, “Damn, look how that rock got him!”

Open like a window, no more indo

Look at a video, sayin’ to myself: “That coulda been yo

Ass on the TV,” believe me, it could be done

Somethin’s got to give, gots to change ’cause now I’ve got a son

I gots to do the right thing for shorty

And that means no more gettin’ high, drinkin’ 40s

So I get back lookin’ type slick again

Fake niggas jump back on my dick again

Nothin’ but love for those that know how it feel

And much respect to all my niggas that kept it real

Kept a nigga strong, kept a nigga from doin’ wrong

Niggas know who they is and this is your fuckin’ song

And to my boo who stuck with a nigga through

All the bullshit, you’ll get yours because it’s due

 

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

(I will hold you down)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I gots to get up

Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up

(‘Cause I got your back, I got your back)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I can’t get up

(Oh, the Lord is with you now)

Ayo I’m slippin’, I’m fallin’, I gots to get up

Get me back on my feet so I can tear shit up

(And He got your back, He got your back)

 

(I will hold you down, ’cause I got your back, I got your back)

(Oh, the Lord is with you now, and He got your back, He got your back)

 

See, this is that shit, this is that shit

That all real niggas can relate to

This is from the heart, baby

Don’t get it twisted

X, baby
