Fundisha - Live The Life Lyrics

Have you eva, eva, eva in your whole, whole life
Seen the the things that I've seen or live the life?
People don't know what I go through
Or imagine what it's like growing up in the hood

Have you eva, eva, eva in your whole whole life
Seen the things that I've seen or live the life
People don't know what I go through
Or imagine what it's like being misunderstood

Maybe if you could walk a mile in my shoes
You would feel all the things that I go through
And then you tell me what you would do
To try and make your dreams come true

When you feel like your back is up against the wall
And every time you try to rise you fall
But yet you find the strength to hold on
Keep the faith despite it all

Have you eva, eva, eva in your whole ,whole life
Seen the the things that I've seen or live the life?
People don't know what I go through
Or imagine what it's like growing up in the hood

Have you eva, eva, eva in your whole whole life
Seen the things that I've seen or live the life
People don't know what I go through
Or imagine what it's like being misunderstood

Have you walked ever outside
Scared you might lose your life
Don't know if you'll live to see 29
May even be a kid

You have to be a man in order to stand
But I got bigger dreams inside of my head
Don't wanna end up the next one dead
So I pray everyday for a better way
Help me, Lord, hey

Have you eva, eva, eva in your whole, whole life
Seen the the things that I've seen or live the life?
People don't know what I go through
Or imagine what it's like growing up in the hood

Have you eva, eva, eva in your whole whole life
Seen the things that I've seen or live the life
People don't know what I go through
Or imagine what it's like being misunderstood

Imagine growing up, dead bodies showing up
Hood dreams, nobody blowing up
Out of two barely make it, half incarcerated
My life I wouldn't trade it

Not for the love or the money, money
(Uh)
Don't try and play me for a dummy, dummy
(What)
Dreams must be something in these project walls
I trust in God that's why I never fall

Have you eva, eva, eva in your whole ,whole life
Seen the the things that I've seen or live the life?
People don't know what I go through
Or imagine what it's like growing up in the hood

Have you eva, eva, eva in your whole whole life
Seen the things that I've seen or live the life
People don't know what I go through
Or imagine what it's like being misunderstood
