This Life

Gotta keep my head up, never get that low
Cause I'm living this life, now it's all I know
Like oh
It's the life I chose (This life, this life)
So I keep a step up everywhere I go
Now they screaming my name after every show
Like oh
It's the life I chose (This life, this life)

One life, one choice, gotta do it right
One chance of proving to the world that you was right
Like a match waiting for a spark to ignite
Sitting and mimicking, thinking if you'll make it through the night
And rise up like a phoenix, flying through the night

I shine once like a shooting star losing sight
You see, man, the difference between you and I
Is Imma keep doing what I do, cause it's do or die
Ain't got no time for that not getting big game
Got one life, living mine in the quick lane
I'm too hungry not to get that win, but I just gotta remember one thing

Gotta keep my head up, never get that low
Cause I'm living this life, now it's all I know
Like oh
It's the life I chose (This life, this life)
So I keep a step up everywhere I go
Now they screaming my name after every show
Like oh
It's the life I chose (This life, this life)

I wasn't born with luck, had to make my own
Success was my only option, that's the way it goes
And I've been focused, always keeping it on track, yes
It's been a fast road, but I ain't crashed yet
And Imma smash those who say I'm past tense

My time is right now, and it ain't passed yet
And I'm just trying to see my name in the lights
Waking up in a different city every day of my life
Like, so consumed, wrapped up in this rap game
At the illusion, the stats and the facts change
I'm too hungry not to get that win, but I just gotta remember one thing

Gotta keep my head up, never get that low
Cause I'm living this life, now it's all I know
Like oh
It's the life I chose (This life, this life)
So I keep a step up everywhere I go
Now they screaming my name after every show
Like oh
It's the life I chose (This life, this life)
