This Is Life (Explicit) - Ugly Heroes/Erik Stephens/Chris Orrick/Dan Weiss

Let's go

Apollo brown

That dude apollo told me black out

Got that pressure feeling like it's really building on the surface

Chilling underneath I'm cracked out

My blood pressure rises knowing what's on the horizon

Like I'm rising but already feeling tapped out

Like my cash cow is fresh outta milk

And taking diligence and effort to build

And nobody pays attention to the messengers killed

I've been thinking lately I should make my exit and chill

And that perspective's real

Getting caught up in my record

See my competitors know that I'm ahead of the field

But still I'm trying to be better than pill

So you know my head gets filled with politics

Like Obama and a senator's bill

With thoughts spinning walk with them lost in it

Liquor store blues how's that medicine feel

So walk with me in this dark city

With this heart skipping where the people talk shitty

Where it's hard living and the giving

And it's part gritty and it's part prison

Where each day complacent and decay with the paint

We play with the paint while we're looking for that new thing

We wait every month on the day we get on but

This is life motherf**ker what did you think

I'm thankful had so much less than what I have now

A rapper want beef I bring the mad cow

Put in work now so we can walk the last mile

Mamma told me there'll be nights like this

A rapper will get rocking mics like this

Must be I know I cat she had nine lives

First week I know you feel lines verb speaks

This is life motherf**ker what you thought

Students of the game always

Molotov cocktail all up in your thought

Find fragments of my life scattered all up in my art

I'm all up in it from start finish to end

Till then keep manouvering

Moving on the right path

Moving with my pad keep doing it

And there's a lot of days when I gotta take a step back

And anyone who's ever been there respects that

Cause when I get vindictive I get intricate

And specific as is

Most of my b******t in this is self inflicted

And I know that I helped this sickness

Most of my problems i create

It's hard to swallow what I ate scraped the bottom of my plate

So am I following mistakes or do I make them on my own

Cause everyday it seems I wind up with another issue

Something to get through more I gotta live through

And I get shocked by it still surprised

When the noises in my life in erupting they're not quiet

So is it something to get used to or something I already knew

Just had to move through
