Explicit version of "In My Life" lyrics
In my life
In my life there's been heartache and pain
There's been heartache and pain
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I'm still that regular
Thuggin' it
But I'm stuck with
Grew up with
I'm the product of the ghetto 'til they bag me up
With a bail stash in case they snatch me up
I'm a soldier in this war and I resemble my pops
I ain't nothin' like him
I provide for the fam
Cook it
Bein' successful
But I went to the high school a playin' the bench
We live off with
I was raised by the gun so I switch up clips
Gettin' my hustle on
I won't change bein thug
In my life there's been heartache and pain
In my life there's been heartache and pain
There's been heartache and pain
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I've put work in
To let the world know that I speak for the ghetto
I've been through the struggle
Puttin' the close one
I lost one a my road dogs in nine-eight
I still see him everytime I look in his mom's face
But don't cry ma'
I know he up in Heaven and he gon' lead us right
I live by the street so I'm a die by the street
As long as I'm alive his daughter'll never need
We used to be this close
But now it feel we this far apart
We can't bag and kick it
Only time I see 'em
But I gotta face the fact
But I'm a ride to the death
In my life there's been heartache and pain
In my life there's been heartache and pain
There's been heartache and pain
In my life there's been heartache and pain
In my life
Sometimes I just grab the car keys and ride
With no music
I done came a long way
Touchin' the eight
It was just yesterday
The spot got shot up
It's me against the world with no brother
And I ain't thinkin' about seein' tomorrow
I got sixty-two grams and a six-shot eight
With plans to hit the block and get s*** straight
But my dog just got shot
I lost all my weight when the crack pot bust
I was left with zip
That's when I realized that my life ain't 'bout nothin'
The world wouldn't understand bleek in the street
So I took it to the booth and gave y'all the speech
In my life there's been heartache and pain
In my life there's been heartache and pain
There's been heartache and pain
In my life there's been heartache and pain
There's been heartache and pain
In my life there's been heartache and pain
