Hey baby
This is my life, yeah

This is my life
Baby, ohh
This is life

January 3, 1986, busting out for the fix
Took my first steps
No clue at how physical life gets
'Round uptown Calio projects

Whole life stopped when my daddy got popped
One head shot, he was dead on the spot
Now I'm running around with my stomach in knots
Knowing memories is all I got

Ohh, nobody knows about the struggling I been through
That's why I hustle like I do
I gotta provide for my people
Yeah

And nigga, I done worked too hard
I done came too far to lose
Can't stay still, gotta stay on the move
Leave every day with a point to prove

This is my life
Baby, ohh
This is life

This is my life
Baby, ohh
This is life

Mama jumped ship
Hoping shit gone change
Now I'm a-town bound nigga down for the grain
I'm feeling like I'm loosing my sane

'Cause niggas 'round me been using cocaine
Now my dreams of fortune and fame won't be slain
Just gotta except that I'm on the road that was chose from above
Nigga, love is pain

Ohh, nobody knows about the struggling I been through
That's why I hustle like I do
I gotta provide for my people
Yeah

And nigga, I done worked too hard
I done came too far to lose
Can't stay still, gotta stay on the move
Leave every day with a point to prove

This is my life
Baby, ohh
This is life

This is my life
Baby, ohh
This is life

I go and know you been waiting for a long time
Shorty keep a strong grind
Never give up the sun, don't shine
See I'm where I belong now, yeah

Just never ever lose perspective
'Cause if the shit hits the fan and times get hectic
I'll fall to my knees and thank God that I'm blessed with
The strength to hold on and deliver the message, so

Ohh, nobody knows about the struggling I been through
That's why I hustle like I do
I gotta provide for my people
Yeah

And nigga, I done worked too hard
I done came too far to lose
Can't stay still, gotta stay on the move
Leave every day with a point to prove

This is my life
Baby, ohh
This is life

This is my life
Baby, ohh
This is life
